User:Niemolej/sandbox Article evaluation

The article is part of the WikiProject pages for food and drink as well as the one for fishes. Most of the information that was presented within the article was relevant to the subject of lampreys. However, there were a couple of statements that were included in the "As food" section such as the inclusion of how fond of lampreys King Henry I was, and whether or not eating lampreys was the cause of his death. Although interesting, I found this statement slightly distracting. The article was neutral in its tone and did to clearly show any bias towards one side or another. In the talk page it would appear that there is a large amount of people checking sources to make sure that the information represented on the page is actually correct and suggesting edits to fix any errors that may be present, or discuss for example the possible ways in which to present the classification of the lamprey species. At times the article seemed rather unorganized in how the information is represented, with some pieces of information being better suited to other paragraphs or sections. Additionally, upon closer inspection, a few of the citations linked to news articles from outlets such as the L.A. times and CNN, which summarize the scientific articles form which these conclusions were originally drawn.

In addition, it would be greatly beneficial to have an image depicting lamprey anatomy in more detail than the extremely basic one provided, but less specific in who is able to interpret it than the cross-sectional view already provided. All of the links that I had sampled appeared to work, with the addition of relevant wiki pages being linked, with a few exceptions being that there are at this point no pages existing on these topics.
