Which article are you evaluating?
Executive Order 9066

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
It is important to clarify and understand the history of Japanese Americans and how they were treated early on in the United States.

This article also had a very solid foundation and needed a bit of work to get its rating up.

There is a lot of good content here, but some of it needs to be cited. There could be more content in some areas to go more in depth about the affects of the Executive Order 9066. Noting what lead to the Executive Order would be helpful too. In reading, I found a number of capitalization errors. President, for example, must be capitalized when referring to a specific person. The headings should also be capitalized. I thought this article could be a bit "wordy" at times and could definitely be clearer by shortening sentences and begin more concise and to the point. More images and maps could be helpful to help readers understand the camps, their locations and residual effects. The very last section, "Legacy," needs to be longer. How does this affect attitudes toward Asian Americans today? Did the attitudes toward Asian Americans change immediately after the removal of the Order? The legacy of the Order needs to be reflected on in a larger time period than just recently.
