Article Evaluation
Indiana Women's Prison

Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?

I would say everything in the article is relevant to the article topic. There was nothing that distracted me and I liked the extra information given.

Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? What else could be improved?

The demographic information dates back to 2006 and I would have really liked to know the demographics of the prison now in 2018, or even at least within the past five years. I feel like there could have been more information on the page detailing the insides of the prison. I think that there could just be more information added to ensure that the readers are getting actual useful and interesting knowledge.

Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

The article is neutral. I did not notice anything that seemed to hold any bias towards anything. I believe the viewpoints are underrepresented because I wanted to know more about the Indiana Women's prison and more details and this was very bland.

Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article? Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?

The citations and links that I clicked absolutely worked. This supports the claims in the article about the prison and the history. Each fact is referenced with reliable and appropriate references that allow the reader to gain more knowledge. The information comes from neutral government sources that show information and no bias. Most of the references are government documents just telling straight facts.

What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic? How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects? How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?

There are no conversations going on behind the scenes of this topic. The talk within this is someone talking about a different rating that he is giving another article about prisons. This article was rate Start-Class and Low Importance. It is part of three WikiProjects: WikiProjects United States, WikiProject Correction and Detention Facilities and WikiProjects Women. I think that the difference between the way this article talks about the topic and the way we discussed in class is that this article doesn't go far into detail and is mostly focusing on the history.
