Me Too movement: (Me Too movement)

This article in particular touches on many topics about the Me Too movement that are factors people consider but do not explore further such as the impact of race in the Me Too movement. ==== The lead does include a sentence that clearly describes the Me Too movement. The article is then broken up into sub divisions and there is a general description of the impact of this movement. However, the Lead talks about the consequences the men faced in the movement but the article never fully discussed it again. Overall the Lead is concise and lends well to the article.

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 content is relevant to the topic as it discusses past survivors of the movement and the nuances behind the movement. It even goes on to further discuss the future of this movement. The article does a good job of being up to date and the article goes on to discuss the impact of the movement in many different areas. However, the amount of information in the article is important but it seems to lack discussion about how many men really go away with it. It talks about the money they received and it gives information on the movement but it neither tells the women's trauma nor the more judicial aspect of the movement.

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 leans toward supporting women but it would be difficult to make an article that did not lean towards women in an issue like this. It does try and be neutral by discussing how men that are victims of sexual assault are still not comfortable coming forward and how the movement needs to work on that.

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
The article is backed up by many sources of other news articles that have reported on the topic. It is also backed up by statistics and testimonials which all reflect the majority of the literature available on the topic. The sources are also current and the links work, however some links show different percentages than what is reported in the article making some sources questionable.

Organization

 * Guiding questions


 * 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 but sometimes has run-ons which make the information a bit harder to process. Not many spelling errors but it did not flow smoothly and rather listed facts a lot more then discussing them.

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
The images were well used to show a person involved in the trend of the hashtag of the Me Too movement as well as the posters put out to prevent sexual harassment. The images are captioned well and are very visually appealing. A picture of the founder may have been nice as well but overall good use of images with links.

Checking the talk page

 * Guiding questions


 * What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?
 * How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?
 * How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?

Talk page evaluation
The Talk page is discussing how some facts were represented incorrectly and how there were images that were incorrect as well. It is rated as high or mid importance (C) and is part of wiki projects like feminism, internet culture, sexology and sexuality, and United States. The way it is discussed in class use's a lot of information to support the article, despite these sources flaws, where as in class professor's pick one topic more and then just expand on it deeply.

Overall impressions

 * Guiding questions


 * What is the article's overall status?
 * What are the article's strengths?
 * How can the article be improved?
 * How would you assess the article's completeness - i.e. Is the article well-developed? Is it underdeveloped or poorly developed?

Overall evaluation
The article's overall status is a C grade. The article does a good job at trying to explain the different facets of this movement. However, the article does miss some important information and can use a little editing in order to solidify the idea it is trying to convey. The article is developed but it seems to mainly talk about the creator of the movement which the talk page discusses as not the actual creator of this movement. It slightly detracts from the movement itself and focuses more on people making it a little difficult to comprehend the full picture. A larger emphasis on the movement might help the article.
