Lead
The group who chose this article has not made any changes within the article Birding In New York City. As a result, I will be reviewing this article as it is. I believe that the lead is straight to the point and requires little change except for one point. It is not overly detailed and only specified the amount of possible species and where theyre possibly located in NYC. However your group can add something small regarding urban ecology to connect it back to our class.

Content
For the most part, the content in the article so far has been relevant to the topic. Upon further inspection, I believe that the off leash dogs subheading is not relevant for this article. The content was not as precise, and did not specify which birds were being chased and affected. I dont think it should be there since there hasn't been any significant change because of off leashing the dogs. If the dogs had caused different migration areas for the birds living in the park, then that is when I feel like it is relevant to add that section. The content has been up to date with the latest sources dated back to 2022 and is broken up to the different boroughs and listing which birds live in each one. Your group can add some information regarding urban ecology within each borough. The article does not deal with wikipedia's equity gaps.

Tone and Balance
The content added is neutral and only mentioned the facts within the article. There were no heavily biases, and no viewpoints are overrepresented and underrepresented.

Sources and References
All new content added (in reference to the articles that were recently added in 2022) are relevant and reliable secondary information. The sources are current and relevant to the topic with articles being cited as recent as 2022. When I clicked on multiple links within the cited sources section, most of the articles are avalaible. Some of the articles are seen as "archived" so the a few links were unable to be opened. However, I think there are less scientific or peer reviewed papers being cited. Some of the sources I've seen used include the New York Times, the Associated Press, and The Fox news. I've mentioned the three sources due to how they could be possible unreliable sources or people who wrote these articles with the mindset of a reporter, and not the mindset of a birding expert. I would be skeptical if there were that many articles from those specific publishers with being Associated Press as being one of the main sources/publisher cited.

Organization
The current article is well written, and it is concise and clear for me to read. I did not notice and grammatical errors while rereading the article. The article is broken down with the boroughs and within that, where and which birds are found. The information was vague (since this topic is vague) so I was not expecting in detail about each species present: but the other links where you would read more about that species. The issues are also relevant and I think it can be also tied back to urban ecology with the topic of habitat loss present in the current article.

Images and Media
The article does include images that enhances the understanding of the topic. The images are well captured and they adhere to wikipedia's copyright regulations. The current images are laid out in a presentable way. However, I think more images could be added. Some subsections of the article do not have pictures associated with it. I believe you can add a picture under the "Location" heading with a picture showing one of the recreational parks or the subway with birds within that picture. You can also insert a chart or graph regarding the species in the different boroughs or more birds in general, to give reads a better perspective on possible birds that we have seen but dont know the name of.

Overall Impressions
Since I'm only reading the current article as it is, I cannot comment on the quality of the article improving because they have not edited the actual article.
