Pearl (Steven Universe)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
The page is using incorrect citation methods. There are too many direct quotes and the article uses direct links to sources instead of properly formatted citations. I am also choosing to edit it because I am familiar with its source material, so I feel comfortable making these edits.

Evaluate the article
The article is unfocused. It goes into too much detail from sources and includes too many conjectures based on sources without proper citation. The reception section includes a quote from a source that was already making conjecture about, "how," the audience, "may," feel about the character which is nonspecific and distracting. The article also inconsistently refers to the character's orientation. It uses the terms queer, lesbian, and LGBT to refer to the character. The article should use LGBT consistently both to remain neutral and respectful of the marginalized group as well as avoiding further conjecture in the article. The article does not follow its own subhead guides, as it talks about character reception in all subsections instead of delegating that discussion to the "reception," section. This article is a part of the WikiProject Animation. On the talk page there is discussion about the interpretation of one of he sources. There is also a discussion forming about weather the article should be categorized under the, "female character," category as the character can be argued to be nonbinary.
