Peer review

[edit]

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?
    • Not that I can see
  • Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic?
    • No, I think the first sentence now should be moved after a sentence that establishes what the article is about.
  • Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections?
    • Not really, it could be more explicit in outlining what will be discussed
  • Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article?
    • Music therapy is only mentioned in one short sentence fragment so I would either eliminate that from the lead or add a better description.
  • Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed?
    • I think that the lead is too concise and could use a few more explicit details on what exactly the article is going to cover.

Lead evaluation: I didn't see any added content by my peer but the original lead was kind of lackluster in terms of outlining the content of the article.

Content

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added relevant to the topic?
    • N/A
  • Is the content added up-to-date?
    • N/A
  • Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?
    • I think there should be a better description on the aspect of music therapy
  • Does the article deal with one of Wikipedia's equity gaps? Does it address topics related to historically underrepresented populations or topics?
    • Not that I can tell

Content evaluation: I can't find any added content but the original article gives an in-depth review of the history aspect of the topic but everything else is very concise.

[edit]

Tone and Balance

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added neutral?
    • N/A
  • Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
    • No
  • Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
    • No
  • Does the content added attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another?
    • N/A

Tone and balance evaluation: The original article seems very neutral.

Sources and References

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?
    • N/A
  • Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic?
    • Yes, there is an adequate number of sources.
  • Are the sources current?
    • None are within the last decade so when adding to things in the paragraph about the future make sure to add some more relevant citations
  • Are the sources written by a diverse spectrum of authors? Do they include historically marginalized individuals where possible?
    • Yes
  • Check a few links. Do they work?
    • Most are links from physical books

Sources and references evaluation: I didn't find any new content added so additional sources were not needed yet.

    • N/A
  • Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors?
    • N/A

Organization evaluation: No new content but the original article

[edit]

Images and Media

[edit]

Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media

  • Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic?
    • Not really, there is a picture of one of the people being mentioned.
  • Are images well-captioned?
    • Yes
  • Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations?
    • Yes
  • Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way?
    • Yes

Images and media evaluation: No added media but the original image simply provides a visual of the musicologist being described.

[edit]

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?
    • N/A
  • How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject?
    • N/A
  • 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?
    • N/A

    • N/A

New Article Evaluation: N/A

    • N/A
  • What are the strengths of the content added?
    • N/A
  • How can the content added be improved?

Overall evaluation: N/A because I didn't see any new content added. I had trouble with figuring out how to publish my edits so that others could see so I am guessing you are having the same issue!
