Lead

Lead evaluation

You will have to add information about your topic in the lead section of the article. Aside from that the introduction to your topic is well developed and easy to understand. Your introduction clearly states what your intentions are in the paragraph. It is concise and doesn't have too much information presented at one time which is good.

Content

Content evaluation

The content is quite up to date. The majority of the information comes from recent events and the sources also mainly come from 2019. All content is relevant and the new section clearly relates to the topic as a whole.

Tone and Balance

Tone and balance evaluation

For the most part the content remained neutral. There were a few instances where it seemed that you were leading the reader to a conclusion so try to eliminate that. I did not see any biases in your additions which is good. Aside from the concluding parts of your paragraphs, I thought the piece was neutral.

Sources and References

Sources and references evaluation

The sources were definitely reliable as it is a bunch of scholarly articles and books. The sources definitely provide valid information that enhances the piece as a whole. Most of the sources come from 2019 so they are definitely current. All the links that I clicked on seemed to work well.

Organization

Organization evaluation

The paragraphs flowed in a coherent and easy to read manner. I definitely could see this sliding directly into the article as it is well written. I could not find spelling or grammatical errors and thought the piece is well organized.

Images and Media

Images and media evaluation

No images used.

Overall impressions

Overall evaluation

Overall I think you have a really good start. The paragraphs are full of information that corresponds to the article as a whole. Enhancing vocabulary at times can definitely add to the piece. Look into fixing the conclusion sentences of your paragraphs because it seems to me that you take a stance in them.
