Concerning the Article: Egyptian Medical Papyri

'''Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? --- no major issues or distractions in the article. All information currently on the page is related/relevant

'''Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? --- There are a few claims that seem a bit out of pocket. For instance they say that Early Egyptian medicine was based mostly on a mixture of magic and religious spells with no mention or reference link to religious practices/belief systems of ancient Egypt.

'''Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? --- The main papyri that are presented happen to have been recovered by mostly European and British foundations/organizations. I'm unsure if it's simply that those groups were more intentional of recording/reporting their findings or if there is just not a lot of recovered items from Egypt itself. To me information on this papyri from Egypt seems very underrepresented.

'''Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?''' --- Yes each citation given works and the source information lines up with what appears on the page

'''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?''' --- Yes for most part all of the sources are reliable and neutral references with no apparent bias. However due to the fact that many sources were found around the early 2000s many of the sites have either been removed or are very outdated.

'''Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?''' --- Much of the information has not been updated for some time, including information about recovered Egyptian Papyri in general, the main medical papyri section is the only prioritized section and it's references are all from 2007 or before.

'''Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?''' --- Yes there a few conversations concerning grammatical errors, page structure and image placements. The most recent edit requested to update the page's information with another contributor to subject.

'''How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects? --- The article is rated at a start class with Mid-Importance.

How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class? --- It does not differ greatly, from what we've learned thus far about the development of science.
