General info

Lead Evaluation

[edit]

The lead gave me a great insight about where the site is located and who occupied it. I think their lead needs to include a brief summary of what was found there and why is important. There is great detail about who stayed and he mentions what is not found at the location but does not further elaborate why not finding those features is significant. Their lead also does not include a brief description of the articles major sources, their draft is only two paragraphs long so it is hard to distinguish the different section they will be addressing in their article. Their lead does not include information that is not present in the article. I feel like Frankie's article can greatly benefit from establishing the significance of the site and why is it important to learn about what was found at this site.

Content Evaluation

[edit]

The content that Frankie added was relevant to the topic. Overall, I feel like he is giving me the basics of the site but he can definitely get more detailed and bring up unique sections that are relevant to his article. The content added is up to date but I feel like he can add more information on the history of the site as well as the history go the people who inhabited the site.

Tone and Balance Evaluation

[edit]

The content added had a very neutral tone. There weren't any claims that appeared to be biased. The archeologist viewpoints is an area that can benefit from being represented more in the article. Questions like why was their finds important, the significance they believe their finds to hold are both very important questions that Frankie's article can benefit from.

Sources and references evaluation

[edit]

The content is backed up by a reliable source and he included the title of the article he is using.

Organization evaluation

[edit]

The content is well written but needs better organization. I believe Frankie's article would greatly benefit from the content being broken down in sections that address different aspects of the topic. At the moment everything is placed into 2 paragraphs that address some major points but they would be much better off if they had their own individual section where he can elaborate on them more.

Images and Media Evaluation

N/A

New Article Evaluation

[edit]

Frankie used the article provided by Professor Melton which is credible.

Overall evaluation

[edit]

Frankie is off to a great start for his article. He understand the major points that needs to be addressed and provided the information in a very concise way. However, Frankie needs to make the significance of the site more clear as well as what exactly the findings or lack thereof were and why they were significant. Lastly, Frankie would greatly benefit from having different sections in his article that address things such as geographic location, history of the site, significance of the finding, etc.
