From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peer review[edit]

This is where you will complete your peer review exercise. Please use the following template to fill out your review.

General info[edit]

Lead[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Has the Lead been updated to reflect the new content added by your peer? Yes, the lead has been updated.
  • Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic? The lead's introductory sentence is concise, but doesn't necessarily clearly describe the article's topic. Radical evil as a phrase doesn't add significant meaning, and its relation to the term "radix malorum" is also insignificant, as uninformed readers will not know what that is.
  • Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections? The Lead seems to lay out a basic understanding of the article but is not written in a way that outlines the article's major sections (e.g. Origin and Categorical Imperative are not addressed in the Lead).
  • Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article? No
  • Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed? The lead is concise.

Lead evaluation[edit]

The Lead is concise and introduces the topic. However, it could better outline/match the content of the body of the article. There are also some grammatical errors, including starting sentences with "By ____, ______".

Tone and balance evaluation[edit]

In my opinion, the discussion of criticisms in the academic community is fair and neutral, but may be seen by some readers as biased against Kant.
