Organization

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read? For the most part, yes.
  • Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors? In the first sentence of the lead it says "The Chamba people are a significant ethnic groups" when group shouldn't be plural.
  • Is the content added well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic? Yes it is broken down into language, beliefs, and art which is then subdivided.

Images and Media

[edit]

Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media

  • Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic? Yes it does.
  • Are images well-captioned? The caption is a little hard to understand and should probably be written in a clearer manner.
  • Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations? Yes, the image is free to use for anyone.
  • Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way? There is only one image and it is in the center of the page, maybe it should be moved to the side.

For New Articles Only

[edit]

If the draft you're reviewing is a new article, consider the following in addition to the above.

  • Does the article meet Wikipedia's Notability requirements - i.e. Is the article supported by 2-3 reliable secondary sources independent of the subject?
  • How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject?
  • Does the article follow the patterns of other similar articles - i.e. contain any necessary infoboxes, section headings, and any other features contained within similar articles?
  • Does the article link to other articles so it is more discoverable?

It is not a new article. The Chamba people article already exists.

New Article Evaluation

[edit]

Overall impressions

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete? Yes, it is more complete with the content added. It adds many more sections and insight into the Chamba people's lives.
  • What are the strengths of the content added? It clearly distinguishes topics with sections and subsections and it speaks a lot about the Chamba's beleifs.
  • How can the content added be improved? I thinks some more can be added to the art section and some restructuring of sentences.

Overall evaluation

[edit]

This is a good amount of new information and adds a lot to the current article. It adds more sections which makes the article clearer and more organized. I think that this draft can be improved with some more information, and restructuring of sentences.
