Article title: Static fatigue


Article Evaluation: The article lacks an encyclopedic tone and contains technical writing that may be difficult for readers to digest. In addition, the second source listed in the references does not include a link for easy access for readers. Since the last cited source is from the year 2008, it may be a good idea to look for current studies, such as the one listed below regarding the temperature dependence of fatigue limits.

Article title: Chemical waste


Article Evaluation: The article struggles with tone and includes advice, steps, and "how-to" information that need to be reworded or moved. The "Chemical Waste in Canadian Aquaculture" and "Pharmaceuticals subheadings lack sufficient citations as well.

Article title: Microwave Digestion

 * Article Evaluation:
 * Article Evaluation:

The article needs clarification regarding the term "elemental scientists". It would be a good idea to expand the article with an example from an experiment to show the effects of microwave energy on heavy metals. In addition, adding additional resources would promote the notability of the article, since it only includes one source in the bibliography.

Article title: Chavicine


Article Evaluation: This article only has one reliable source. Despite the article only having one sentence, it remains neutral and there are no equity gaps found. It needs more citations, sources, and expansion on relevant information.
