Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
We are currently reading a book that focuses heavily on anarchist ideology in early 20th century Chile, and I would like to expand my understandings of anarchism.

Evaluate the article
The lead section of the article provides an overview of Anarchism at its most basic levels. However, it does not lay out what the Wikipedia article will be about. The overall content of the article is well balanced, with every different concept getting a relatively equal amount of attention. Furthermore, the content also includes concerns about anarchism's definitions, and the criticisms of anarchism. The overall tone is fairly neutral, with each statement being backed by sources. The source material is relevant to the topic and the sources are fairly current, with a few being dated back 30-40 years ago. The organization of the article is done well, easy to read and follow. The only criticism I have is that the introduction does not lay out what the reader will be reading. While some of the images are directly related to the focus of the section, some confused me as to why they were there. Perhaps trying to relate images better to post-WW2 anarchism and post-classical contemporary would help the reader. The talk page is very interesting, discussing concerns with some of the images. For example, it is being debated whether or not a painting is done by an anarchist painter, due to the dates of the image being difficult to find. My overall impressions are that this article is really good, it follows almost everything a Wikipedia article should be. My only concern however is the beginning in which it should be illustrated what lies ahead.
