Article Evaluation edit
Article Evaluation[edit] It would appear this article is extremely well written. I only was distracted by two statements. The fact that Theravada buddhism is not related to Hinduism, so why was the temple converted to Theravada Buddism? Also, why Theravada instead of Mahayana Buddhism? Also, how did researchers know lions guarded the front gates?
There are a few claims that seem biased to show the temple as being extremely sophisticated, and advanced, though these claims are supported by citations.
The history of the temple is overrepresented and repeated throughout the article in different ways.
The citations link work properly, and the sources do support the claims in the article.
Yes each fact is cited with the appropriate reference. Some sources appear to be more reliable and less bias than others. Overall though the article provides facts not biased opinions.
I think this information is very up to date. The article is well written and extremely long, so I do not believe there is anything that is missing.
There is a lot of conversation going on from behind the scene ranging from suggesting the page had been hacked to actual questions about the Temple. Other people are also trying to clarify whether the Temple is a Hindu or Buddhist temple and why the change happened. The Talk page provides more information that should be included or removed from the article.
The article is rated as FA.
I do not believe we have talked about this topic in class yet, so I’m unable to fully answer this question.
