Which article are you evaluating?
Louis Sullivan

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I think a well-established article of someone who is very well-known is bound to be much harder to evaluate that one that receieves very few attention and edits. For the purpose of this exercise, Louis Sullivan seems like an appropriate figure to evaluate for not only the truthfulness and informativity of the text, but also for making sure it is as unbiased as possible when it comes to things like achievements AND controversies.

Evaluate the article
The first section of the article does a decent job encompassing what Sullivan was known and accredited for, especially his motto and associations with Frank Lloyd Wright. The overlay of the entire article makes sense and is clearly, following a rough chronological outline of his life followed by some other projects and collaborations he did with other creators. The list of projects he worked on is also significant, as he was very established and accomplished in the history of architecture in Chicago. Looking at the edit history of the article, it seems relatively consistent. None of the citing or sourcing seems particularly off or suspicious.

One thing that struck me as relatively strange was the need to put an entire section in the table of contents regarding his association with Ayn Rand, which could have been a smaller subsection under different appearances and collaborations throughout his life. Seeing the works and contributions he made throughout his entire life, it seems reasonable to put those before.

Overall, though, the article is very easy to read and pretty well done. The inclusion of a gallery for his many works was a good choice.
