'''Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?'''

Everything seems relevant, especially as informed by the class info. Depending on the expanse of the article or the intended expanse, the relevance of the history section and its contents may need further reviewing.

'''Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?'''

When describing and referencing the different “academic perspectives” how will you address neutrality, will there be criticism, explicit or implicit, of the different approaches?

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

It will be difficult to represent both viewpoints on either side of the conflict, for example, the viewpoints of Spain, UK, and US in the Guano conflict, as well as the citizens of Peru. Can you get the viewpoints of both sides for some of these conflicts?

'''Check the citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?'''

No citations yet, but there are markers in-text where they would be. Make sure to include them before implementing them in the actual article page.

'''Is each fact supported by an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?'''

The spaces to include citations appear to be in valid places. References are unknown but hopefully they will be peer reviewed and from reliable sources (Cornell sounds good). Maybe be wary of the YouTube video?

'''Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that should be added?'''

The historical examples of a resource war are good, but to boost the relevance, show how the information is relevant in today’s examples.
