Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?

(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I am interested in Carl Day because he initiated the Day law in Berea Kentucky leaving the students of color

Evaluate the article

[edit]
  • Is the article neutral? I feel like it is mostly neutral but it has a bias input toward the end.
  • Are the sources current? It's a mixture between very old and ore recent sources.
  • Are the images well-captioned? There are none.
  • Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic? No the article has no pictures and needs some so people understand better who he is.
  • What is the article's overall status? It needs to have more information and some pictures added. It's not very long or well projected.

Out of curiosity, in what way do you find the article to be non-neutral? Negative statements are carefully sourced to a reputable historian. (And I was not able to find any photographs of Day that had reliable provenance - there's one on FindAGrave, but where did it come from?) DS (talk) 02:43, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
