I chose to evaluate this article about paleontology because it is an important field in Earth and Environmental Sciences that is overlooked. Having accurate information about paleontology can help convey to people how important this field is.

Overall, this article is well written. However some areas could use an update, such as the history section, where I think there could be room to talk more about modern paleontology. I also think there could be more emphasis on ideas about how important paleontology can be for our future because hyper-focusing on what paleontology does for the past can make the science appear outdated. While I understand articles must be unbiased, there are ways to talk about paleontological applications for the future without being biased.
