Data mining

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it relates to the information I am studying and what I want to learn more about. Data mining is an important part of computer science and there is so much information that relates to each of those topics. My initial impression of the article was that it is a very academic article and there are so many different things that align with data mining that could be added.

The article "Data Mining" contains relevant, well-written information that is laid out in an orderly fashion. The beginning clearly explains the general overview and then moves forward to describe it in deeper detail. The information is written and review by multiple individuals and has recent reviewers. The references range from old to current, many from 2001 to 2020. There are well-defined sections, although not much information is available for information that relates to data mining. There are two images laid out in an appealing way, but do not help further understanding of the topic. I believe the article could use more images that explain different types of data mining and more examples on what data mining is used for and why. At first glance, the article is very well developed, I believe it could use a bit more information.
