Article Evaluation on Vladimir the Great:

- The article does well adding subtopics that are relevant to the main subject.

- Sources are plentiful and are relevant. Also, there is a diverse timeline of the listed sources that range from 1902-2015. However, the references section is small and most sources are cited in the Notes section. Another small discrepancy in the Notes section is that some of them listed are typed in Russian when the 98% of the article is in English.

- The article up to this point in editing remains neutral and does well explaining religious history without becoming biased in any way.

- Links are reliable and support the article well

- The article does lack a few citations/references that are needed to support some stated facts in the article. For example, the article states "He may have attempted to reform Slavic paganism by establishing the thunder-god, Perun, as a supreme deity." It comes off as more of an hypothesis or opinion then a fact which reduces the reliability of the article.

- This article is rated a level 4 vital article which overall makes it a reliable one.

- Looking at the Talk page for the article, it has come a long way in terms of being a reliable source on the subject. It is amazing to see how each person had affected the article and made it better with their input whether it specifying spelling or referencing a better source to support their edit.
