Article Evaluation: Loyola Press[edit]

Everything on the Loyola press page on wikipedia appears relevant, granted that there isn't much information on there at all. With that said, there wasn't anything that seemed the least bit distracting, if anything, it was underwhelming- the article doesn't even have a picture.

The article seems to be neutral, there are only a few measly facts(mostly on the history) and there really isn't anything on there that conveys a bias or type of feeling towards Loyola Press. With that said, I certainly wouldn't say that there are any viewpoints that are over represented. In fact, one might say that the article is lacking any sort of view point at all (not that wikipedia wants to stray away from neutrality).

The links in the citations do work, and the sources appear to support the little information provided in the article. My only issue is that two out of the four sources are Loyola Press itself. Although the sources seem to be reliable, because Loyola Press is using itself as one of the main resources, there may be some bias present.

I wouldn't particularly say that the information is out of date. To be honest the article has maybe four sentences total and all offer a very minuscule piece of insight on the history of Loyola Press. With that said, I believe that there is a huge amount of information missing that the article needs. A couple sentences on when the organization was established and and what they do is barely sufficient. The article lacks content, as well as detail; looking at this article as an outsider, you would not take very much away from it. A mission statement of the organization would be helpful, along with a more detailed history.

After checking out the Talk page on the article, I wasn't surprised to find that there weren't any conversations at all and the article has not yet received a rating on quality and importance either.
