Good evaluation, Jjpandy! It would be helpful if you stated the article that you evaluated. It appears that you engaged with the material, thought about its value, and what you might change or add to the article as it exists. Keep it up and you'll have a decent draft in no time.

This is a great improvement to the original article. Many interesting details have been added that help to further elaborate what the FATF is and what it stands for. The information regarding where the FATF stemmed from was very interesting. There were a couple things I noted that didn't fully make sense to me and that could be clarified such as, “This hypothesis was thought of by intergovernmental organizations.” What kind of intergovernmental organizations? “integrity of the international financial system” What’s the integrity of the international financial system? “The effect of the FATF Blacklist has been significant, and arguably has proven more important in international efforts against money laundering than has the FATF Recommendations. While, under international law, the FATF Blacklist carried with it no formal sanction, in reality, a jurisdiction placed on the FATF Blacklist often found itself under intense financial pressure.[9]” Although blacklisted countries do not face any formal sanctions, how is economic pressure placed on these countries? Any formal examples of a country i the past or present who have faced this pressure? “Countries are subjected to evaluation by FAFT to see that they are upholding laws and regulations enforced by FATF.” How are countries evaluated? Are these evaluations done annually, or when the FATF suspects something suspicious is taking place? Overall I really enjoyed reading the article, and the changes that you've made have been great! Hopefully the feedback will be somewhat helpful. Best of luck. Oalynch (talk) 00:25, 9 March 2019 (UTC)Olivia Lynch
