Gate of the Ghosts

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I am interested in Chinese philosophy, especially those mysteries about afterlife.

I have heard of the Gate of the Ghosts from various Tv shows and novels, but I would like to research and dig deeper on this topic since the article on Wikipedia about this topic now could be considered as a "stub."

Evaluate the article
Lead section:

The article has a comparatively good lead section in the sense of briefly discuss what the Gate of Ghost is, and also includes the Chinese words of it.

However, it is not detailed enough and more information, such as the origin and relative religions is needed.

Content:

The content is related to the topic, and the information is not dated since it's about a mystery.

There is no content that is not correlated to the topic; however, there could be enrichment on this topic, such as references of "the Gate of Ghost" in ancient stories or books, and movies that discuss correlated contents.

Tone and Balance:

The author's tone is definitely neutral and objective.

No biased opinions nor persuasive tone has been expressed in the article.

The references of the article are considered to be reliable and trustworthy.

There are sources from famous universities press, and also news media press that provides correct information that is related to the topic.

Also, there are latest sources included. The date of these references range from 2000 to 2020.

Some other valuable sources that could be used in this topic is one of the most famous Chinese novels called The Journey to the West. This source could provide some knowledge and application of the actual term.

The links on the article all worked very well.

Organization and Writing Quality

The writing of this article is precise, fluent, clear, and professional.

There is no grammatical or spelling errors found.

The article is well-organized since the author separate the two sentences into two different paragraphs to clearly demonstrate the main point and the supplement.

Images and media:

There is currently no images or media included in the article, but it is understandable since this is a mystery and folk religion that does not have a concrete or specific image to represent the idea.

Talk page discussion:

There is currently no discussion on the talk page under this topic.

Overall impression:

This article is currently labeled as a stub on Wikipedia, but the author's writing and summary is clear and brief enough to let people have a basic understanding of what "the Gate of the Ghost" is.

This article could be improved in the following ways:

First, adding more historical evidence or references, such as stories from the novel The Journal to the West, about the Gate of the Ghost to illustrate the interpretation and application of this term.

Second, adding images that best represent the topic.

Third, selecting well-known and valuable uses of the term from movies, Tv shows, novels, religions, and so on to help the readers understand more about this topic from different perspectives.

Overall, from my perspective, this article is underdeveloped and needs addition and improvement.
