Lead
Guiding questions:


 * Has the Lead been updated to reflect the new content added by your peer?
 * No. The lead could benefit from additional content that describes Verginia is more a specific manner, to provide additional clarity to a reader that knows nothing about the topic.
 * Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic?
 * It does, but it describes Verginia in extremely general terms.
 * Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections?
 * No.
 * Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article?
 * No.
 * Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed?

Content
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added relevant to the topic?
 * Yes. Additional content about references to Verginia in Literature is helpful as it illustrates the importance of Verginia's story.
 * Is the content added up-to-date?
 * Yes.
 * Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?
 * Some potential content that could be added to improve coverage of the article would be information about Verginia's early life/life outside of the story, if availiable. The article is about her, not just about the notable story that she appears in.
 * Does the article deal with one of Wikipedia's equity gaps? Does it address topics related to historically underrepresented populations or topics?

Tone and Balance
Guiding questions:

 * Yes.
 * Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * No.
