Peer Review #1

[edit]

The Lead Section: The lead section gave a general explanation about what greenwashing is. It provides important background information setting up the reader for the article to go more in depth.

Structure: The sections are in good order, talking about the topic, the usage of greenwashing, history on the topic, then going into the regulation in different countries, and examples. I feel that this is a solid general layout.

Balance: I feel that there weren't any major points left out and the article doesn't really contain anything off topic.

Neutral: The article is neutral in tone and it is all based on fact.

Sources: The sources are solid, all of them are derived from books, journals, reliable websites, and databases. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tbartlett16 (talkcontribs) 23:14, 13 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I thought this was a good article overall, there were many good sources and I thought the content was organized very well. In the section with all the examples, I think that some of the examples stray away from a neutral tone. For example, the pampers example that states that they are changing their diapers to save money could be worded differently to stay on the topic of greenwashing, avoiding anything unrelated.

I also really liked the lead section and thought that it really stressed how important this topic is.

I would like to see more detail on the outcomes of greenwashing and the impact on our society since it is such an important issue that not many people know about!

Great job! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amaziarz (talkcontribs) 13:18, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I think the introduction definitely outlined the important information mentioned in the rest of the article but I think some specific details could have been omitted because it was a lot to take in initially. This is a small detail but the last sentence in the intro was a bit confusing and the wording was a little strange.

The structure and layout of the article works well. The way the article is separated into sections is logical and easy to follow.

I think the article was strengthened by the large amounts of examples written throughout. At times it seemed like a lot of information, but it definitely got the point across.

It seemed like the article had a range of reliable sources but some of them were a bit old so maybe some of those could be updated.

Overall, a really informative article! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mgattoni (talkcontribs) 03:23, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
