Which article are you evaluating?
Cardiovascular disease in women

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it is important to recognize the subtle differences in presentation of heart disease in women. This matters because it could help aid in early detection and diagnosis of acute cardiac events in women. My preliminary impression of the article is that it includes solid background information, and I would like to expand on it.

Evaluate the article
Lead Section : The introduction clearly states the subject along with some general background information about the history of the topic and why it matters. It summarizes the historical aspect and the reason cardiovascular disease in women was not well understood. It does not include extraneous information, and is not overly long.

Content : The available content is a good start in addressing the topic. The article does a good job of further explaining the history behind the study of cardiovascular disease in women and gives context to the current trajectory of research in the "Shift and trends" section. It would be beneficial to expand on the "Symptoms" and "Risk Factors" sections, as well as adding content related to treatment, long term complications including morbidity and mortality, differences among socioeconomic groups, etc.

Tone and Balance : The tone is neutral and appropriate. Viewpoints do not appear biased.

Sources and Citations : All 10 citation links work and support the claims made in the article. The sources are neutral, however, the majority of sources seem to be a reflection of the American Heart Association guidelines. It appears that most facts are followed up with an appropriate citation, but some paragraphs do lack citations. I would like to add additional sources to expand upon the symptoms, risk factors, treatment, epidemiology, health disparities, etc.

Organization and Writing Quality : The article is concise and easy to follow. It does not contain any obvious grammar mistakes. It is well-organized into readable sections.

Images and Media : There is currently no image or media associated with the page. The addition of relevant images will make the article more visually interesting.

Talk Page : This page is rated as a Start with High importance. It is part of WikiProject Medicine and is supported by the Cardiology task force and Translation task force. A user pointed out on the Talk page that this article focuses primarily on cardiovascular disease in women in the United States. It might be beneficial to add a section covering epidemiology of the disease, and how the mentioned sections (risk factors, exposures, long term complications, etc.) differ in various areas of the world.

Overall : The article is a good start to exploring cardiovascular disease in women. Its strengths revolve around the detailed historical context provided to explain the need for emphasis on understanding the presentation of this disease in women. The article can be improved by expanding on other areas as listed above. I plan to prioritize expanding the available sections on Risk Factors and Symptoms to begin, and will add additional sections after those are complete. I hope to embed links to other relevant Wiki pages and keep the language readable to ensure that the information on this topic is easily accessible to anyone who desires to learn more.
