General info

[edit]

Reviewing article draft by user Ehong25. Article draft can be found at this link: User:Ehong25/Headshaking

Lead

[edit]

The lead is great! It contains a lot of important and interesting information about the behaviour. You did a good job of summarizing the behaviour.

Content

[edit]

All of the content is relevant, and up to date. You did a great job describing the possible causes and treatments of this behaviour. I think a section describing the effect this behaviour has on the health and well-being of the horse would be a good thing to add. Does this behaviour affect the way the horse interacts with other horses and/or humans?

Tone and Balance

[edit]

The article is presented in a neutral way with no biased phrasing.

Sources and References

[edit]

All of the references used are from reliable sources, and the article was well-referenced throughout. One thing to note is the formatting of the citations is off, as the citation should be placed after the period of the sentence you are citing, not before it.

Also, I would add links to the different conditions listed in your table. After reading your article, readers may want to visit these related pages for more information on the possible causes of headshaking.

Organization

[edit]

The article is split into several subheadings that make it easy to follow and read. Good job!

Images and Media

[edit]

N/A - No images.

It might be neat to add an image of a horse wearing a nose net or a face mask, if such a photo exists with the proper permissions to use in your article.

Overall impressions

[edit]

Great job improving this article! You've added a lot of relevant and important information, making your draft much better than the original article posted, which was very brief. Only thing I would try to add, like I mentioned before, is some information on if/how this behaviour affects the horse's health. Interesting read!
