Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it is about a topic a knew not much off. Therefore, this article will help me understand how to write a wikipedia page on a subject people know not much about. The first impression of the article seems like a well structured article that makes use of many different sources.

Evaluate the article
The lead section gives a short introduction of the topic, without any explanation of the subtitles or subparts but it does give a chronological order in which the rest of the article is presented. It is not too precise and does not have too much details. The content seems to be up to date, because it is a historical article. There are no equity gaps, because it is about the aftermath of a colonial massacre to local inhabitants. The tone and Balance seems very neutral and the writer(s) do not take show their personal view in the article. Furthermore, the sources and references are good as all the facts are backed by academic sources, furthermore many links are made to other wikipedia articles to further explain words and events. The organisation and writing quality of the article is very good and is very organized because of the chronological way it is presented. The article only uses two pictures which are derived from the public domain and well referenced. There are none discussions going on in the talk page, but that comes probably from the fact that it has been a graded "good-article" since 2012. Therefore, overall this is a very good article.
