 * Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed?

Lead evaluation
The Lead has an short introductory sentence that describes the article's topic and it includes a brief description of the article's sections. The Lead doesn't include information that is not present in the article. I think the Lead is concise.

Content

 * Guiding questions


 * Is the article's content relevant to the topic?
 * Is the content up-to-date?
 * Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?

Content evaluation
The article's content is relevant to the topic because it lists the journal articles and books about breakfast and the different types of breakfast from different geography areas. The content is not up-to-date because most of the journal articles are from 2013. It's also missing content under the categories section. It only provides 6 different breakfast televisions from 6 countries and it's not enough.

Tone and Balance

 * Guiding questions


 * Is the article neutral?
 * Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * Does the article attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another?

Tone and balance evaluation
The article is neutral and no heavily bias. I think the section about breakfast television is overrepresented, and the background and overall category of breakfast is underrepresented.The article doesn't attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another.

Sources and References

 * Guiding questions


 * Are all facts in the article backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?
 * Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic?
 * Are the sources current?
 * Check a few links. Do they work?

Sources and references evaluation
Almost every fact in the article has a secondary link to another Wiki stub, and they are all reliable. The links in this article are thorough. Some of the sources are not current, because all the articles and the links were created in 2013. After 2013, there is no update for any section.

Organization

 * Is the article well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read?
 * Does the article have any grammatical or spelling errors?
 * Is the article well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic?

Organization evaluation
The article is well-written and I did not see spelling errors and it's well-organized. However, I think it lacks of detailed information towards each section.

Images and Media

 * Guiding questions


 * Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic?
 * Are images well-captioned?
 * Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations?
 * Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way?

Images and media evaluation
It has lots of pictures helping readers imagine what different breakfasts look like from different counties. And all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations. All the images are laid out together but not in a visually appealing way, because they are gathered together and the layout would make readers lose the interests of what they really present.
