Which article are you evaluating?
Uncertainty reduction theory

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article to evaluate because it is a theory that we discussed in my Advanced Communication Theory class. It is a theory that I find interesting especially for how it connects and develops romantic relationships. I chose it because it is an intermediate article that needs improvement but I also like the theory. My preliminary impression of this article is that it had a good amount of terms that helped to explain the theory. I also thought with how implicit it was, what kind of edits could I make that would be beneficial.

The Uncertainty Reduction Theory does have a good lead in explaining the theory and how it was developed. The article's content is relevant to the topic without placing too much substance on one area. The article also appears to be neutral with no biases towards certain ideas. The sources seem to be relevant but some are dated with years such as 1996. The organization and writing seems to be decent. This article does not have any images necessarily, just tables of data. On the talk-page there are discussions about the vagueness of the article and what needs to be done to clean it up and make it better. I would assess the article as under-developed with need for improvement. ~Natalie750
