Article Evaluation

[edit]

The article I chose: Johnstown, Pennsylvania

My Notes:

The article for the most part was relevant there was a few things I think that didn't need to be in the article

43 miles south west of Altoona doesn't seem to relevant to the article

also the fact that they gave the 2010 population and then gave estimated population for 2013 also seemed irrelevant

the mention of the city's name in a Bruce Springsteen seems rather irrelevant

for the most part it stayed on topic

the article seemed unbiased

nothing was really overstated in the article except the "In arts and literature section" a lot seemed irrelevant

there could be more detail about the flood of 1889 because that was a huge event in Johnstown

the links I tried all worked they took me to websites where the information could be fact checked

there is a part of the article that talked about unemployment and the what kinds of jobs there are that needs a citation

some of the things came from the census bureau so that would be unbiased and facts and neutral

every thing seems to be up to date in the article

I feel they could have added more about the 1889 flood and how if happened and who was involved

the talk page showed places that were bias they said it looked like it had been written by a local the way the described the city but that part has been fixed

people also talked about fixing external links on he page

the article is rated c class

it is rated high importance

it is part of project Pennsylvania

also WikiProject Cities

I believe It did a good job of informing and education me I learned things I didn't know about my home town
