(Compose a detailed evaluation of the article here, considering each of the key aspects listed above. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what a useful Wikipedia article evaluation looks like.)

Lead section: Definitely clear and informative, but I don't think it includes a brief description of the article's major sections.

Content: Good amount of organized content. I think some of the stats should be continued to be updated more recently.

Tone and balance: I definitely think the tone is very neutral and balanced. However charts in some countries are represented less than others.

Sources and references: Sources seem reliable and legitimate.

Organization and writing quality: Writing quality could be a bit more consistent throughout.

Images and media: Good uses of image and captions!

Talk page discussion: Much of the discussion was around updating statistics and facts to be more recent, and also some possible additions to nuance the genre classification.

Overall impressions: It was a "Good articles" nominee but did not make it.
