Which article are you evaluating?
Tom Grennan

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I am a big fan of Tom Grennan and I think his page is quite short even though he is growing with popularity. Tom Grennan is a good artist with positive meanings behind his songs which makes him a good role model for younger generations. The page around him is short with a lot of details missing and doesn't do justice to his legacy.

Evaluate the article
The lead paragraph does include a good introductory sentence that clearly describes the articles topic and is concise but it does not include a description of the articles major sections. To improve this, the article should be edited to mention the articles major headings in order to give readers a better understanding of the scope of the article.

The content of the article is all highly relevant to the topic and is up-to-date as of January 2021. All the content provided does belong in the article, however, there is a lot of content missing. The bibliography mainly focuses on the artists life since becoming an adult and joining the music industry. It could include his life before the age of eighteen and more about where he comes from and grew up. Furthermore, it has nothing about the artists personal life since becoming a musician with a label.

This article is written from a neutral point of view with no heavy bias towards the subject. Additionally, it doesn't look to sway the reader in favour of a position or stance related to any topics.

All facts and figures are backed up thoroughly with reliable and current sources which are a diverse spectrum of different types of authors and organisational statistics. This makes the article well written and concise, laying the information out clearly which means it is very easy to read.

There was only one image provided, which was labeled clearly. However, it is a bit old and the image could be updated to ensure that the article stays current. The use of more images could be increased as this may give readers a better idea of the artists look and style. Additionally, it may be useful to include links directly to the artists music as this could make the article more user-friendly.

There is no discussions on the talk page, this could be due to the topic being niche and uncontroversial. Furthermore, the article is clear and consisted whilst being backed up with a plethora of reliable sources. Therefore, there may not be many questions/discussions to be had about the article.

Overall, the way in which the article is written is a strength in itself. The author/authors have ensured the content is grammatically correct whilst providing an unbiased view that is backed up thoroughly. I would say the article is underdeveloped as it is quite short and has potential to include a larger amount of relevant information which is not just based around the artists career.
