Article Evaluation: Pingsdorf Ware


 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
 * Yes everything seemed relevant. The only distracting portion of this artcle was the description of the geographic range for Pingsdorf ware. It was presented in the form of a long, run on sentence and would have been better served with a map graphic.
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
 * Not that I can see. The topic seems to be sparsely researched over a long period of time so given those things the amount of information is acceptable.
 * What else could be improved?
 * A few more pictures of the ware in question would have not gone amiss.


 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * The article appears neutral and there are no claims which appear heavily biased.
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * Not that I can discern.
 * Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?
 * Only one citation had a link; this link did work as intended.
 * 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 artcle seems well-sourced, with adequate reliability, origins, neutrality, and lack of other red flags.
 * What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?
 * No talk page has been started for this topic.
 * How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?
 * I do not see a rating and this page is not a part of any WikiProjects.
 * How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?
 * Wikipedia discusses this topic more in the context of Archaeology (where it should probably be discussed) as opposed to Art History. Although art historian's work is cited it is interesting to note that more research on the topic comes from the far more scientific archaeological perspective.
