Which article are you evaluating?
Twilight (novel series)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
Honestly, I chose this article for nostalgia and laughs. I was a big fan of Twilight when I was young. It came out when I was in 7th or 8th grade so I was a part of that fan base. Twilight had a huge impact on the book industry after Harry Potter for young adult readers and setting the trend of what people wanted to read at the time. It is important to learn about it and its impact. The article is very straight forward and and does a good job focusing only on the novel and providing facts about it, like rewards.

The lead section is concise and informative at the same time. There is neutrality as facts are given and describing the plot, characters, settings, and outside facts and real life impacts. Seems up to date from my knowledge of the series and news.

There is a weakness with the avoidance of mentioning a huge fact, which is how the Twilight series was a love triangle trope that divided the fans and that also made it a trend in other books around that time. It gets the facts correct that Bella love Edward more, but it is still worth noting the love triangle and how involved it brought readers. It was a huge part of the series. Additionally, the images provided could be better, such as the photo they used to describe Forks, WA in the settings section, which just depicts a road. It has a section about fans going to the Forks Festival but provides no images of what to expect. The captions could also use some work as they seem generic.

The organization of the article is really well done. In the first half, it just focuses on the content of the series, and then in the second half it goes into the outside world, such as its origins, impact (positive and negative), controversy, legal challenges, and more. Seems to provide a lot of source, which I am not going to evaluate every one, but they seem up to date.
