Discrimination based on skin color

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it is mostly likely one of the first places people come to to learn about discrimination in line with colorism.

Evaluate the article
Lead Section

The lead section begins with a strong introduction. It concisely states everything in the table of contents and subsequent article.

Content

This article answers yes to all these questions, with one exception: in the Africa section, not much is outlined or detailed about discrimination in South Africa or many other countries without a majority African American population. I noted this on the Talk page.

Tone and Balance

The tone of the article is neutral and informative.

Sources and References

All the source links work when clicked on, and are from reliable organizations. Most of them are academic papers from reputable sources, such as news outlets and universities.

Organization and Writing Quality

The writing quality uses strong academic discourse and is well-organized. It reads smoothly and is easy to navigate.

Images and Media

The article does not have images.

Talk Page Discussion

The talk page is not very full, but has several suggestions on topics to add detail to and improve. The article is rated start-class and is part of the discrimination, human rights, and ethnic groups. It does not discuss topics with opinion, rather, it yields plain facts.

Overall Impressions

The article is solid as is, save for a few edits to the aforementioned section. The article is strong in its organization, and perhaps could be stronger if graphics of studies and statistics were included as a visual aid. The article is developed -- but definitely has room for growth. Discussing real-world implications and experiences may perhaps be more impactful than just numbers alone.
