Article Evaluation: "Sexual dimorphism in non-human primates"

The following guiding questions are from the Wiki Education Exercise: Evaluating Wikipedia


 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
 * yes! there are clear sections giving support for each of the listed dimorphism, including the hypothesized mechanisms driving the sexual dimorphism.
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
 * The most recent paper cited is from 2012. Behavioral ecologists have more thoroughly investigated this in the past 6 years, so these new studies should be included, especially in the "Ultimate Mechanisms" section.
 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * Yes. It is based on scientific observations.
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * No, it tends to use a variety of sources to state observations and hypotheses.
 * Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?
 * Yes!
 * Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
 * the section "Terrestriality" needs more sources, especially for the first sentence.
 * the leading statements for the "Ultimate Mechanisms" section need citations
 * the information is mostly from cited scientific studies (neutral sources)
 * What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?
 * the conversations are just about the citations and updating the sources from which the information is drawn
 * How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?
 * It is not yet rated
 * It is a part of the WikiProject Primates and WikiProject Animal anatomy.
