User:Tslays/Evaluate an Article

Which article are you evaluating?
I evaluated the Utopian studies article.

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this topic because I always enjoyed reading books about fictional utopias so I thought this article would peak my interest. This topic matters because utopias are something that most civilizations strive for or at least should strive for. My first impression of the article was that it was incredibly short. Most of the information was just links that led to elsewhere and it didn't feel like there was enough information on the topic.

Evaluate the article
There are things that this article does right and many things that it could improve upon. This article has plenty of sources so that people who are really interested in this subject can actually advance their knowledge of the subject even further. This article also does an incredible job of remaining neutral; the article does not contain any targeted language that may push the audience towards a certain opinion. However, I am not sure that I would exactly call this article up-to-date. In their list of significant pieces about utopian studies, the author's list ends at 2010. One would be led to believe in the last eleven years there would have been some sort of significant literature on utopias. The lead is concise but it does not include a brief description of the article sections. While this is a good introductory page to the topic there could be room for improvement.
