Clifford Wiens

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose to evaluate Clifford Wiens's Wikipedia page as I have made a presentation about his work on the heating and cooling building at the university of Regina, and thus I have a general idea of who he is prior to evaluating his article.

My first impression is that it feels lackluster. It has very little in the way biography and actual story's of his work.

This article is successful in that all of the information is relevant to the architect and talking about his professional affiliations, however, it falls short in most other categories. It talks extremely little about Clifford Wiens himself. It has almost no biographical information, and merely lists most of the significant buildings he has worked on instead of offering insight on each one.

The article is neutral in tone throughout, which is not saying much given there is only about two sentences that are not simply his professional affiliations.

Everything is reference properly, and each link works to its required amount. They are all relatively diverse in their origins as well.

It is rated as B-Class in the Talk portion. It has been rated this by WikiProject Biography, WikiProject Architecture, and WikiProject Canada / Saskatchewan. ~
