Article Evaluation

 * The article "To Build a Fire" is relevant to the multiple themes, the relationship between the dog and the man, the dog's representation of instinct, and plot discussed throughout the article. Although I feel the theme of "man versus nature" is lacking in-depth details about how this theme ties into the story. This theme should be reevaluated and should incorporate in-depth details such as quotations, or more in-depth plot details, like the themes of "stupidity and arrogance" and "the man's human sense of judgment contrasted with the dog's animal instincts" include.
 * The article seems to be written in a neutral perspective consistently throughout the article up until the foreshadowing section, in my opinion.
 * All viewpoints within the article seem to be equally represented throughout the article.
 * I agree that this section on foreshadowing can potentially be composed of original research or possible bias material that is not noted as bias material. Particularly the second citation used in the section, reference 21, seems to look like original material or potentially bias material. The reference should be verified and reassessed, it should also be removed if found to be original material or marked if found to be biased material.


 * The links in this article currently seem to work, although the first link leads to an article about Abraham Lincoln, which I cannot find a relation to the material used for this citation anywhere in the article about Abraham Lincoln. There is also another citation, reference 11, which leads to a James Madison University database link that is not accessible to the public so that one should be fixed too. A third reference, number 16, leads to a general yahoo general with no material that relates to the article. It also looks like there were previously not working links around this time last year and corrected by another editor, the Abraham Lincoln article is also something noted by another editor.
 * The plot summary for the 1908 version appears to be accurate, I cannot speak for the 1904 version, as I have not read it.
 * This article is rated as a "Stub-Class" on the WikiProject's quality scale, which essentially means it is very broad and lacking meaningful content and any additional editing and improves would be useful. This article is also rated as "Mid-importance" on the WikiProject's importance scale. This means this article is notable and can be significant within the field of literature, according to the WikiProject's Assessment Department. Considering this article is rated as "mid-importance," it would be nice to have some meaningful content and additional edits that can upgrade this article from a "Stub-Class" to a "Start-Class."
 * Rather than too much quoted material, there is too little. I feel that if there is more quoted material in this article to support themes and other claims, it could make the article more effective and efficient.
 * Overall, this article is in need of some editing to improve it and make it more effective, as of right now, it can stand on its own for basic information, not much else. Some things to look at would be fixing up the citations and references, confirm or remove potential bias or original research material, and adding more in-depth detail to the themes section.
