Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose this article because I love outer space, and my favorite planet is Saturn. Moreover, I got the impression that the Wikipedian was very knowledgable about the topic, and was also very passionate about the planets as well.

Evaluate the article
(Compose a detailed evaluation of the article here, considering each of the key aspects listed above. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what a useful Wikipedia article evaluation looks like.)

- There is no introductory lead sentence, there is an interactive map of the solar system that when you click on the planets, provides some basic information on the planet. Yes it does provide an introductory sentence, albeit not a great one. The lead does not include information that is not already in the article. I would say it is absent.

- The article's information is related to the core content. The Content is up to date, with information coming from NASA. Some content is missing, as the information is very basic and does not include all the facts about Saturn. Not particularly, as it deals with outer space, which I feel is a very popularized topic.

- The article is neutral, as it presents facts about Saturn and other planets, with no favoritism. No there does not appear to be any bias towards a certain planet. There are no viewpoints that are underrepresented. No, they are not described or mentioned. No, the article does not persuade anyone to take a certain position.

- Everything is backed up by Space Agencies around the world, with the primary one being NASA. The information is also cited in the paragraph as well as on the bottom of the Wiki page. There are no better sources, as NASA is the leading agency in the world on outer space.

- I would say the article is relatively well written, and was pretty concise and clear. There are no grammatical errors that I could see. The article is well organized, however the information is a little hard to get too which takes a little bit of patience.

- Yes, the page includes pictures, and really good pictures as well. These can be seen on the title page and also on the planets page as well. All images are well captioned and do adhere to Wiki's copyright rules. Yes, the images are set in a visually appealing way.

- There really are not any conversations that I saw when going on the page. The beginning slide did say that the author would love feedback as well as contributions as well. It is part of the wiki projects, I could not find the grade for the site unfortunately.

- I think the overall status for the project is improving, the edits have definitely made it better to read and also more clear. Moreover, the creator knows that there is more work to be done, and was recently editing in 2023. I think the articles strengths are the pictures, as the pictures were really fascinating and clear. I think the article can be improved by having more written information. The article is well developed, the pictures are incredible and the information is well put together, I just wish that there was more written information.
