Peer review

This is where you will complete your peer review exercise. Please use the following template to fill out your review.

General info

[edit]

Lead

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Has the Lead been updated to reflect the new content added by your peer? There is not a whole lot of new content added by the peer and the lead reflects this. The only thing that has been added is a short sentence about the origin of Flipp Dinero's name.
  • Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic? The Lead includes an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes Flipp Dinero as an American rapper, singer, and songwriter.
  • Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections? The lead doesn't really provide a brief description of the article's major sections outside of the table of contents.
  • Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article? The entire lead has information that is not present in the article.
  • Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed? The Lead is very concise (perhaps too concise).

Content

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added relevant to the topic? The content added is relevant to Flipp Dinero (all the information has to do with him).
  • Is the content added up-to-date? None of the added information is cited so it is difficult to know if the content is up to date without independent research of Flipp Dinero, which I will not do here. I assume however, that the content added is up to date given the little amount of contributions and the recent nature of Flipp.
  • Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong? There is a lot of content that is missing, mainly in the "career" section of the article. The content that is currently in the article, however, all seems to belong.

Sources and References

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information? There are no citations for the new content.
  • Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic? Unknown, see above.
  • Are the sources current? The sources are relatively current.
  • Check a few links. Do they work? Most of the links work, although the first one that I checked ([4]) was a link to a nonexistent page.

Organization

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read? The new content is not well written but it is clear that this reflects a lack of time spent on the article.
  • Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors? The new content has errors and is generally poorly written. There is definitely a better way to say the following contribution: "With his childhood name Flippa and his love for money, his stage name Flipp Dinero came to existence." I would reword this sentence. The next contribution doesn't make sense either: "Growing up he attended private school and in order to pursue music, his parents were his drive, on every Sunday his mother, father, and aunty pushed him to attend church choir; as he describes this as "family is my motivation".
  • Is the content added well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic? The content is well organized. It contains an early life, career, and discography section, typical of most obscure artists' wikipedia pages.

Images and Media

[edit]

Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media

  • Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic? Yes, the picture of the article's topic, artist Flipp Dinero, adds to the understanding of the topic.
  • Are images well-captioned? The image is captioned with an identifier (name and date of the picture), which will suffice but could be more interesting.
  • Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations? I believe the image is in violation of Wikipedia's copyright regulations. Blasianmanda added the picture under the "own work" category, although a quick google search of Flipp Dinero shows that the picture is from a Billboard interview and taken by photographer Chad Griffith.
  • Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way? The image of Flipp is formatted in the only way that makes sense.

For New Articles Only

[edit]

If the draft you're reviewing is a new article, consider the following in addition to the above.

  • Does the article meet Wikipedia's Notability requirements - i.e. Is the article supported by 2-3 reliable secondary sources independent of the subject?
  • How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject?
  • Does the article follow the patterns of other similar articles - i.e. contain any necessary infoboxes, section headings, and any other features contained within similar articles?
  • Does the article link to other articles so it is more discoverable?

Overall impressions

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete? The new content has slightly improve the overall quality of the article.
  • What are the strengths of the content added? There is just a little bit more information.
  • How can the content added be improved? More information.

Overall evaluation

[edit]

I think you have a good start. There just has to be much more time spent on the article. Doing this assignment on a relatively obscure artist will be hard because there isn't going to be a lot of useful information (in Wikipedia's eyes) so you will just have to do your due diligence finding good information and citing your sources correctly. Definitely credit the photographer of the Flipp picture or find a different photo because I believe that's a violation of the copyright policy.
