User:Seanj18/Evaluate an Article

Which article are you evaluating?
Natural science

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because among the linked options it seemed somewhat relevant to the topic I study, it matters because natural sciences are the lens through which I try to understand the world around me, and my preliminary impression is that the article seems well done

Evaluate the article
The lead is a good one, there is an introductory sentence followed by gradually expanding on the topic in a logical manner

The content seems relevant, up to date, and reasonably concise

the article seems to have an appropriate tone, and balance, with no lack of neutrality, and seemingly little to no bias, the article simply presents the information, with no clear moral or value statements attached to the information

Sources and references seem to be of high quality, and relevant/up to date. Those sources which aren't modern seem to be the best articles in the use case they are used in

Article is well written and doesn't seem to be plagued with grammatical or spelling errors, and is easy to read and not excessively verbose

The use of images is fairly appropriate, various aspects of the article were reflected in the images used in the article, and as far as I can tell all images are within wikipedia copyright regulations

Talk page seems active, most conversations are centered around disagreements and discussions trying to determine what to consider natural, or what to consider a science, versus a natural science, and in general most of the discussion seems healthy and productive. The article is rated C class for quality, I think largely because of the difficulty elucidating exactly what constitutes science versus natural science versus other academic pursuits, and I think this debate is one which doesn't necessarily have one single correct answer, still the article seems to be evolving in a generally good direction. Article is rated as top importance in the importance scale

The article has strengths in that it provides a reasonably clear and easy to digest summary of what approximates the concept of natural science, but the article could be improved through resolution of some of hte ongoing topics being discussed on the talk page centered around mostly definitions and categorization of various scientific topics

I would assess the articles completeness as reasonably complete, it seems to still be actively evolving towards a state of enhanced development but it certainly has its strengths
