Evaluate an article
The article I am analyzing is about Jane Green, the author. I decided to evaluate this article because I am familiar with Jane Green’s work.

The introductory sentence of the Lead is not clear and concise. There is so much information in just the first sentence, it is hard to follow. However, even with all of the information in the first sentence, there is very little indication of the sections to follow.

The content of the article is relevant to the subject. The major point of the article is to cover Jane Green’s professional life as a writer. For the most part the article does just that. It provides basic biographical information, birth place and date, schooling, and personal relationships. The majority of the article, though, is about Jane Green’s work and the feedback to her work. A main challenge to the information is that most of it is out of date. Yes, her earlier books did well and earned her the status of “the creator of mum-lit” but her writing now is so much more developed that it was 20 years ago. Jane Green’s writing no longer just follows single 20-somethings in London. The article barely touches on her recent works and is missing quite a bit of information about her life now.

I do feel like the article is mostly neutral. There isn’t a sense of bias about Jane’s work or her as a person.

Most of the citation links in the article are no longer active. They are mostly book promotion links from various booksellers. The truth is it is a little difficult to find current articles about Jane Green.

I don’t feel that the article is very easy to follow, there seems to be excessive information that makes it hard to follow in some places, and a lack of information in other places. While I didn’t notice much in the way of spelling or grammatical errors, I do feel like the Lead is basically a run-on sentence. The article is well organized; the sections are clearly reflected in the information provided.

This is a stub class article and is a part of the Biography and the Women Writers WikiProjects.

Most of the basic information if present, but there are some gaps. The information presented feels choppy and hard to follow. I feel like this article can be cleaned up. The lead feels like one long run-on sentence with too much information and too many commas. Some of the sections have very little information. Citations are out of date and no longer available.

I feel like this is a poorly developed article.
