Geguri

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it's about a topic/person that I'm interested in, and since it's about a woman in a male-dominated space, it seems at least vaguely on-topic.

Evaluate the article
The lead section is a concise summary of the topics in the article, with a strong introductory sentence that identifies the subject of the article.

The content is relevant and up-to-date, as far as I'm aware, although I think it could use an indication that she is currently an active free agent looking for a team, rather than retired or on a break. (It's possible that this doesn't fit the precedent for articles in this community, but also I think it might be a good addition to the precedent, hypothetically.) There is relevant information missing: a summit with the IOC she and another player attended is mentioned on his page, but not hers. The article is short compared to other similar articles. Since it's about a woman in esports, I believe it addresses topics related to historically underrepresented groups, although on the other hand, the underdeveloped status of the article could be due to her gender. (This is debatable, since many of the other players with better Wikipedia articles are more significant than her, so it might be right for her article to be low-priority.)

The article is written in a neutral tone, especially the section about her cheating accusation controversy. It presents the facts without bias or swing. I think that the last sentence of the paragraph — "The incident brought Kim international fame and anticipation for her professional career." — does not show the full picture by failing to mention the feminist aspect of the attention the situation got. Much of the popular opinion was that she was accused because men could not fathom a successful woman in the field who wasn't cheating, and many in the community celebrated her as a feminist hero. I don't think it would be biased writing to add a sentence saying something to that effect.

The sources are from well-known gaming news outlets and journalism sites, which are generally the most reliable sources that exist on this topic. Most are secondary sources, except for an interview with her, which is appropriate for the information cited (the sentence is about her point of view: why she became interested in Overwatch). Another source is a tweet from the Shanghai Dragons announcing her signing to the team, but the sentence where this is used cites another source too: a secondary source from a news site. Generally, the sources are thorough, and they are relatively diverse. The links work.

The article is well-written, well-organized, and without errors. Unfortunately, there are no images. The talk page is empty of discussion.

The article's overall status is not very strong. Its content is mostly good, but there isn't much of it. There are some improvements to be made in the content and the way it is presented. Relevant information could be added, from major events to context for wider topics. It could also be improved by adding a picture of her. I think this article could use some attention. It isn't exactly poorly developed, but it is underdeveloped.
