Article Evaluation

Spanish Cinema

Content: The information in the article is up to date and relevant with the topic. The content takes an objective stance and there is a clear structure of the article. Each section of the article is clearly labelled with a title pertaining to its information. There are a good portion of references as well, but I didn't see any citations within the article. However, the article goes in depth with the history of Spanish Cinema including the Civil War, silent cinema, and cinema of the democratic era.

Tone: There are no instances where I detected bias in this article. It is a neutral, factual article that is very informative of Cinema in Spain. No viewpoints go unrepresented since there is a section talking about English-language Spanish films. It appears the editor did their research and considered all viewpoints.

Sources: The links of the references work, but a few of them bring me to the same website homepage and no information. The references take statistical information from the sources and support the information in the article. The only problem with this article is that there are no citations directly after sentences or paragraphs. All of the references are at the end of the article and nowhere else. The information comes from credible sources that have the same level of neutrality as the Wikipedia article.

Checking the talk page: There is one person on the talk page of this article. All they did was modify one external link in the article. The article is rated C-class and it is a part of two WikiProjects: WikiProject Film and WikiProject Spain. Wikipedia discusses the topic not that differently than the way we do in class. The Wikipedians are civil and helpful and provide edit summaries. The user also suggested to others to fix any issues if they were experiencing trouble with the article. Since there is not much conversation on this page, it's difficult to say how it's different than what we've learned in class.

Erin's Peer Review
Hi Erin,

For week 5 I was assigned to do a peer review on the work you have done so far!

I think there is a lot of great, permanent content in this article. I don't know much about forensic linguistics, but from what I read it is very interesting. Going into it, I did not realize that forensic linguistics was based on law and criminal activity, but the information provided made it clear and concise. There are a lot of small paragraphs in your article, so I think that it might be easy for you to add small amounts of content in a lot of those paragraphs. It will make each paragraph look a bit bigger and more constructed, and you have a wide range of information to search for and find little snippets. This isn't exactly a "change" in the article, more like just additional information that you can search on if you're feeling stuck on bigger paragraphs you are working on!

I think the most important thing you can do to benefit this article is to continuing adding citations, and adding more relevant content to the small paragraphs that are mixed up in the article. You can always add your citations to your work on your sandbox, and just copy and paste them into the article when you feel as though your information is satisfactory. Something that I struggle with is how to write out the information I am trying to give in a way that is unbiased and does not sound like I am trying to explain something to a friend. You write the information (specifically in your sandbox) extremely well, and sound very professional doing it. I am definitely going to be practicing those writing techniques in my writing as well.

Response to Peer Review
Hi Becky,

Thanks so much for reviewing my article contributions! I really appreciate your advice and I believe it will make my article better. I agree with everything you said, so here is the list of changes I plan on making:


 * Adding content to the smaller paragraphs of the article to give them more substance
 * Adding more relevant sources to my references
 * Adding more citations

Thank you for saying that I write the information well and I sound professional! I honestly did not know how it sounded so it's good to hear your opinion on it. I know I have to add more information to my sandbox and I have to figure out which paragraphs I should add to.
