 * Hydrothermal circulation
 * An interesting article and a topic that a lot of prople don't know about. I am curious to learn more about it and I would like to learn more on this topic.

Lead
The introduction give a easy to understand to beginer understanding of the top. It does describe what the topic is but limited information on what it does or causes. It lacks the descriptions of the major sections but it does have a concise introduction otherwise

Content
There are many relevenet topic that are displayed on the wikipedia page though there is some missing that could be discussed like the history but still cover very relevant topics. It is not exacly up to date with the latest paper sited being from 2015.

Tone and Balance
There is little bias towards any side of the argument but it does lack some coverage on sertain aspects that could be coverd to give the reader a better develloped understanding of the topic. This does underepresent the meaning and uses of hydrothermal currents to humans but does not really try to persuade the reader in any way.

Sources and References
There is a lack of sources in a few of the sections but there is overall not many facts in this short page that needs citing. The few citation that it does have could be more current and updated but still relevant nontheless as they are not too old.

Organization
It is clear and consise to read with a logical progression from one topic to the next in a logical order. This may prove to be a difficult read as it has some more technical jargon within it such "hydrothermal circulating convection cells" that are present with little explenation.It does not have any noticable grammer or spelling errors.

Images and Media
There are no images though a appropriate image could help the readers undertsanding of the topic.

Checking the talk page
There are someconversation that are going on behind the scene but is not very active and has not been active for a while. There is still some leftover from the time that should be a great addition to the paper if done correctly. It is not really a topic we coverd in class but it does allign with the bit that was said in class about it. It is part of two wiki projects, volcano and geology.

Overall impressions
Overall the article is a good article for a topic of this size. It is still a small topic that we know more of and can be imrpove with the reaseach being done each year. It does good job of try to provide information to the reader and stay non bias but could have more citation and information for those who want to learn more whuich leads me to say that it is just underdeveloped
