Which article are you evaluating?
American literature (academic discipline)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this asticle to evaluate because literature in America hasn't been recognized or developed as other countries' literature. It matters since in the United States, we have been studying literature from other countries more extensively than our own and it should be more analyzed and taught in schools. My preliminary immpression about the article was that it is extremely short compared to other articles I've read on Wikipedia.

Evaluate the article
The article presents only relevant information to the topic. A lot more information could be added such as why wasn't American literature taught in schools until the late 1800s and what kind of courses were first taught. The artcile possesses a neutral tone. The article doesn't present any images or graphics. The citations work fine and they do support the claim in the article, some are about the first colleges that began teaching American literature and they also present historic context. This article is park of a WikiProject and in the talk page, users suggest adding some citations and questions some of the information. The overall information presented in the article is good considering that there is not much about this topic. However, I think it could be improved.
