Northumbria

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I have been watching the show 'Vikings' for a while and I have grown to love it. In the show, they talk a bout, and are in Northumbria for a significant amount of the story. This sparked my interest in evaluating the article.

Evaluate the article
The lead to this article is short and concise. It gives the reader a quick description of the location of Northumbria in the past, and a description of what it is now. It gives a description of the articles main points, including the kingdoms land and area, and the culture amongst many others. The article did not fall off track of the topic of the Kingdom, in fact I learned a lot while reading it. There are many citations and sources to the information that is given. The article is up to date on its information, there have been recent edits to pertaining to new information about the kingdom. The article is neutral in its dialogue, it simply states the history of the Kingdom without resulting to false claims in any story. The sources for information have a good variety and are trustworthy/reliable. They come from a number of different articles/authors. On the talk page, there are civil debates on certain dialect spoken within the region today between many users. In most of the talk pages sections there are different countries that are talked about, and many users under each section are correcting each other on what dialect is correct or not.

With the amount of discourse going on about the language on the talk side of this article, why is the language section of the wiki so short??
