 * It is a bit on the long side

Lead evaluation
The lead has a good summary of the information present in the article, but it is definitely on the longer side. It might be helpful to make it a bit shorter and leave the more detailed descriptions to the rest of the article.

Content

 * Yes
 * Yes
 * Maybe include artworks depicting scenes from carnival and its political significance since many of Venice's celebrations played into the 'Myth of Venice'

Organization
Guiding questions:


 * Yes it is clear and easy to read

 * I think more sections should definitely be added as there is only one main section so far. I also think that some of the lead needs to be moved into the body of the article to make the lead more concise.

Organization evaluation
There should be an addition of more sections.

Images and Media
Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media


 * No, it would be helpful to add pictures of the art and architecture associated with carnival, maybe some artworks that depict it. I remember looking at some pictures of costumes from class. Since you talk about costumes in your article, this may be a good picture to include.

New Article Evaluation
It is not a new article.

Overall impressions
Guiding questions:


 * Yes, it has elaborated a bit on the article, but I think there is more information that could be elaborated on.
 * The content added elaborates on the celebration of carnival more.
 * Could have more specific examples and pictures of those examples, maybe talk about the association of Carnival with Venetian society and Politics.

Overall evaluation
Overall, I definitely think you elaborated on the ideas already in the article, but I think you should add more information and sections because it is very brief currently. I think that Carnival has an important connection to Venetian society and politics so that would be good to talk about in your article. I think visual aids such as pictures of the costumes worn and the celebration would be helpful as well. It also may be a good idea to discuss how Carnival has changed today - what is the same, what is different.
