Which article are you evaluating?
(Eye color)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(I was looking through the c-class articles and color caught my attention, most specifically... 'eye color'. It is definitely a theme that can have a lot of information since it is related to science which means that more likely than not; studies have been done about it. I think it'd be interesting to see what determines our eye color and why said color can change with time. )

Evaluate the article
(The article seems to be in pretty good shape but some of the information could be rewritten or replaced. The word 'probably' is used a lot which takes away from the believability of the information. It'd be smart to revisit the topic in case new studies have been conducted and that way the 'probably' can be verified as true or false. The article also focuses on both humans and animals, but it'd be best to separate the two. There's random facts on animal eyes throughout explanations which at times made the article confusing. A separate section explaining the similarities or differences in human and animal eye colors would be more beneficial to the reader. The article is also not inclusive; a lot of the pictures are similar and after some google searches, much better images can be found. There's also assumptions that say that only people of some race have a certain eye color which is obviously not accurate. The dates on some facts are also very unbelievable. In the introduction it says that light skin and eyes were confirmed by DNA from 500,000 when the source used, clearly doesn't mention that. Some statements also sound biased, since politicians are mentioned, and politics and eye colors are completely unrelated. There is a mention of Vladimir Putin's eyes being striking which is a personal opinion; something that shouldn't be included if Wikipedia's standards are followed. This article can definitely be changed to be more accurate and inclusive. )
