Lupus - Wikipedia

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I've chosen this article because lupus is a big part of my life. I was diagnosed with lupus at the age of fourteen. I struggle for three years to get it in remission and finally won my battle in 2015. I've been in remission for almost 7 years and couldn't be more grateful.

Evaluate the article
I can admit that just by reading the first sentence in this article, I could tell it was going to be very knowledgeable. The first sentence is very informative and gets directly to the point of the topic to the article, and that's key to a great start. The first paragraph goes over the key points of the article and gives you a good idea of what you'll be reading about. I don't think it's over detailed but has just enough information to keep you engaged.

As I was reading, I did notice they had images along the side of the article, and they were labeled in detail. I personal love that pictures were added to assist in helping readers get an understanding. But I do think it would have been nice if there were more pictures added, to really capture what lupus can do. for example, pictures of the mouth soars and the rash that appears on the hands for that is a common symptom for most. Besides that, I do agree that they were laid out perfectly and I wouldn't have placed them anywhere else.

I particularly enjoyed that it was made very easy to be able to click on anything that isn't Easly identified. after clicking on it your brought to an article page that explains in detail what that specific thing was that you clicked on. For most readers especially ones who know nothing about lupus will find little things like that very helpful. There's a wide range of technical words so it's nice to be provided with the definition of it.

This article was a great read and had tones of information on lupus. I can defiantly say that I've learned a lot from this article and think others will too. I highly recommend, especially to people who don't know much about lupus. The layout of this article was well thought out and from my eye view very organized with labeled sections. overall, a well written article.
