Article evaluation

[edit]

I chose to evaluate the article Beyoncé. The article is very detailed and accurate pertaining to information about my favorite artist. There are many sources to validate the information presented. All of the facts were up-to-date. I appreciated that her latest musical endeavors are precisely noted minus her latest Netflix special Homecoming that just recently came out. The contributors did an incredible job! The article does not discuss any issues so all of the information is straight facts about her life. Nothing in the article read to be opinionated or biased. Most of the citations are correctly noted. I checked 3 of them and they went to the correct page. There are multiple reference articles cited internally and the few that I clicked on goes directly to the article that it references. On the talk page a few of the citations are noted to be corrected because they don't work properly. Also, someone noted that some facts are incorrect. This person did not go into detail and requested editing rights. The article is well composed and has been rated as one of the top 25 articles of the week three times.

Article Topic

[edit]

I have chosen Otis Redding[1] and his museum in Macon. He is originally from Dawson, GA but he grew up in Macon, GA. Upon searching for the articles related to the Otis Redding Foundation I found one with a 78 completeness score and over 2126 people have viewed the article. This meets a good criteria for finding an article to edit except it has the green circle with the plus mark. I have decided to create a brand new article to write solely about his foundation and museum. There is no mention of his museum in the article. On the talk page, there are suggestions to edit the page if it will make the article better. @Grlucas: Do you suggest that I edit this article even though it has the green circle with the plus sign? My other choices were Amerson River Park, which has no article and the Tubman Museum, which shares about the building's construction and when the museum began.

Article Topic Change

[edit]

I have changed my article topic to Amerson River Park. There are no current articles about the park when I searched on the WikiEdu site and on the Wikipedia website. I have found 3 sources for reference to support my information. The first reference is from the Macon-Bibb County Convention & Visitors Bureau about Amerson River Park. My second reference is from Gateway Macon about the park. My third reference is by Amerson River Park with information about the park.Kehli.west (talk) 23:22, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
