About me

edit

I love all things video games and fantasy, I also enjoy a good bit of ancient history. Reading is one of my favorite hobbies, my favorite book series is Harry Potter. Reading literary fiction may improve ones ability to empathize and connect with others.[1]

My Wikipedia interests

edit

I'm not super interested in rewriting entire paragraphs or writing whole pages by myself but I certainly like to fix or add small details

Article evaluation

edit

One of my favorite genres of music is alt-rock, and one of my favorite alt-rock bands is Twin Wild. Their music has introduced me to many more bands in the genre. This made them a natural candidate for my article evaluation. I visited the Twin Wilds article on Wikipedia, and found three aspects of it worth commenting on, poor citations, outdated information, and general lack of detail.

Citations

edit

Many of the article's citations are lacking in information or lead to pages that do not exist anymore or are broken. For example, citation 3 brings me to a BBC show that is “currently unavailable” and citation 4 brings me to a page that appears to have been taken down. A revamp of this article's citations is most likely necessary.

Outdated information

edit

There is no mention of the band's single, “Bad Shivers”. This is despite the fact that the song has been out for over two years. The band's newest single “Fumes” is also not mentioned anywhere in the article. An update to the articles information would greatly improve it.

Lack of detail

edit

The article contains a general lack of information about the band. It mentions nothing about the band members beyond their first and last names. At one point the article claims that the band is from a town in England called Fleet but provides no source to back up this claim. More information about the band's history would be appreciated.

Summary

edit

I think this article is okay. Its main downfalls are its outdated information and the lack of substance in the article. Before reading the article I knew basically nothing about the band and after reading I felt the same way. I’m willing to blame that on the general lack of information about the band on the internet, but the article is still in dire need of an update.
