Article Evaluation
Article that is under evaluation: Sustainable architecture


 * Article overall seems to follow the basic principles of being a good wiki article. For starters, the introduction section is brief and covers all the sub sections (except the criticism section). Improvements to this section could be: briefly discuss the opposing view point in the introduction
 * Also another thing to mention about content: Some sections seem to be very dominant which takes away from the bigger concept stated in the introduction. One example is the HVAC section. Most of the passage is focused on describing the HVAC system and what it is rather than its tie to sustainable architecture. I felt like this sub section could have been a article on its own (however, I may be wrong.)
 * The article does a good job on balancing out the tones. For this topic it seems like there are 2 view points: people who view sustainable design as good and the other side criticizing it. Most of the article supports a neutral tone and focuses on describing the philosophy and the components that make up the subject matter. There is a section that focuses on criticism in the sustainable design industry. It would have been nice to see more criticism about the design philosophy rather than the industry itself. For instance, one short term problem could be inflated costs to gather new materials to build sustainable homes. This could be caused by low economies of scale.
 * Clicking on some of the citation links, most of them seem to work. What I did notice was a heavy emphasis on older publications. Especially the years 2010-2012. Only 2 publications were cited for 2018 and the next was a single publication for 2015. However, I believe that this is fine.
 * Looking at the talk page reveals that some of my past comments have already been acknowledged. For instance, the inflated sections that would seem to encapsulate its own Wikipedia sized article. In the talks page there is a section titled "Proposal to move MOST of this article to Green Building" as well as "Cleanup" that discuss this issue.
