Evaluating Articles and Sources
1. I think that everything in the article is relevant to the article topic. There were some things that distracted me. The main part that distracted me was the Mediterranean diet. It did fit the topic, but it caught me off guard, and I felt the need to reread the topic.

2. I think that the article is very neutral. None of the claims seemed heavily biased to me.

3. The link for the word maturity actually worked, but I don't feel as though it supports the claims in the article. I really don't think that the article talked enough about maturity for it to be cited.

4. Each fact isn't isn't referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference. Many of the references are academic journals, reliable news websites, and reliable journals. The sources aren't neutral for the most part.

5. Some of the information is out of date. I can't think of anything that I feel is missing or could be added. In my opinion, the article already provides a variety of subtopics.

6. I couldn't find any conversations on the talk page. I only saw where people stated that they had made changes to improve the article.

7. This article is rated as a level 3 vital article in Science. This article is apart of some Wikiprojects. It is apart of Ageing and Culture, Biology, Health and Fitness, Medicine, and World's Oldest People.

article proposal
Gerontology I would like to contribute to the social theories of aging portion of this article. In that section, I would like to add to the age stratification theory. I feel like the section could go into more depth about the two arguments that the theory makes. Ageing In this article, I would like to contribute to the subtopic successful ageing. I think that there needs to be more about the three components of successful ageing. The article lists the components, but it doesn't tell us about them. I also feel like there could be a lot more added to this subtopic.

The subject I prefer the most would probably be the successful ageing portion of the ageing article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nayjha Harris (talk • contribs) 17:38, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

From Dr. Cohen: — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thegerontologist (talk • contribs) 20:56, 5 February 2018 (UTC) I can see how you could easily add something to age stratification but that is a complex theory. Successful aging would be new area for this article but successful aging already has a page: [|Successful Aging] Would you add to that page? That might be fine but look it over and see what you would want to add.

My Contribution
I am contributing to the Gentrology article. The portion of the article that I'm contributing to is "Biological Theories of Aging." The article states that there are many biological theories, but it doesn't say what any of them are. I plan on going into more depth by naming some of the biological theories and explaining what they are, and just talking about biological theories in general and where they come from.
