Evaluate the article
This article is very informative and I think it would be very useful to those who are interested in Psychiatry. The introduction is not too long but it informs you on the basis of psychiatry and what it includes. It speaks about the DSM and other diagnostic manuals briefly and it also speaks on certain neurology aspects of psychiatry. The subsections are very relevant to the topic and it helps to fully flesh out the information given briefly in the introduction. Some of the subsections include quotes from people in the psychiatry world and I find that it is a good addition to the article. The quotes are a good way to keep people interested while teaching them small facts. The pictures added are very accurate to what they refer to especially the painting of Dr. Philippe Pinel. The practitioners section is very light on sources. It looks like the information mostly comes from one or two sources. I would suggest to look at academic journals written by psychiatrists, maybe some about their experience with the profession. There's also a lack of citations in the inpatient treatment section. I think adding more citations would help the information's verifiability. The article is neutral and I don't see signs of bias. Overall, this article is very good and I learned a lot while reading it.~
