Coarse woody debris

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I have chosen this c-class article because it is of interest to me. CWD is an important aspect of many ecosystems and can provide vital resources to the habitat. Initially I believe the article to be underdeveloped.

Evaluate the article
The first sentence briefly explains the topic but does not include an intro into the further sections. There is information in the lead section that is not addressed further in the article and it is over detailed. There are missing citations in this section as well. The content within the article is relevant but generally somewhat old. None of the content relates to Wikipedia’s equity gaps or historically underrepresented people/ topics. The article is neutral and unbiased. Not all of the facts are backed up and many of the sources are outdated; there are many sources although some references are by the same author multiple times. The writing is clear and easy to read but the organization could use improvement. The images assist in understanding of the topic and are well captioned. This article is a part of the WikiProject Forestry and has been rated c-class and of mid-importance. Overall, the article is somewhat underdeveloped but is clear and relevant. Organization and concise information are needed to improve the article, such as combining related sections or excluding unnecessary information.
