Evaluate the article
The lead section of this article was an excellent introduction to the topic of legal history. The first sentence clearly and succinctly described what legal history is. The content of the article is related to the topic of legal history. The article is divided into sections by law of different countries or areas. The article is up to date on the topic. The tone of the article matches its content.

The sources for each section of this article are presented and cited at the top of each section. They were each purely factual, current, and very good available sources for the topics they covered. The links in the article worked.

The article was well written and followed a consistent tone and writing style throughout. It was also organized in a way to follow different time periods of the law categorically. There were no grammar errors that I could find. The article used a few images for each category that worked very well.

The talk page showed this article was highly rated earning "start-class" and "top importance" ratings. An issue in the talk page was that this article was missing citations to the academic discipline of legal history, so that is an area the writers are going to focus on in the future.

Overall, this is a great article and the talk page shows how it can continue to be improved in the future.
