Chicago Film Archives
> Overall, my article although short paid attention to the basics. The author clearly stated what the Chicago Film Archives was and what the organization consisted of and why it was created, however there is no other information diving into who created it and why. I would say that the information or what's there does a good job of relating to the topic overall. Any person coming to this page would get decent background information.
> I think that this particular article is for the most part neutral. There is little information, but what is there doesn't write anything that an outside perspective would consider bias in my opinion. Mostly there is just information on what the organization is and when it was founded. I guess if one was really trying to look for something, they could say it was biased towards Chicago films, however that being said, nothing is stated throughout the article that tries to persuade the reader to watch these films.
> The whole article is underrepresented. There is just bare minimum information throughout the entire article that it's very frustrating. This has the potential to be a really interesting topic, for example it would be interesting to know who Nancy Watrous (the director of the organization) is and why she has such a passion for the Chicago movies in particular. I mean it's possible that she is a Chicago native, but it's never stated, so there is too much room for interpretation. The history overall is just very bare and could use a lot more flavor and so could the collection. These days, if i'm correct, one has to acquire some sort of right to have a film/ film reel, so it'd be interesting to the background on some of these films and how they acquired them. The process of how they decide what film goes into the archives would be nice to know as well. Does the film have to primarily take place in Chicago? Does it have to be a Chicago Filmmaker? These would all be things that readers would like to know on how a movie makes it into the archives.
> Yes, the citations do work and take the viewer to the correct location.
> Each fact has been presented with a reliable reference considering both references take you to a website that provides more information on what the Chicago Archives is. I find it kins of silly or confusing that there is such a small amount of information for their Wikipedia page considering the author clearly had access to multiple sources. That being said non of the references appeared to be biased because they were informative websites, however as I stated previously if one was digging they could say that the sources are biased towards Chicago films .
> The information is up to date regarding the history of the organization is up to date, but there are multiple films that have been recently made that are about Chicago that need to be added tot he list. Therefore, I would say the Wikipage is not current with all that has taken place in Chicago cinematic wise. Also, like I've been saying the article needs updating on the history and passion behind the organization because currently it is incredibly dry and leaves nothing to talk about.
> There is no talk about this topic, other than the author stating that they just wanted to talk about the bones of the Chicago Film Archives.
> This article isn't rated on anything or apart of any Wikiprojects.
> Compared to what we've talked about in class about articles, this article would be considered unacceptable, if we're basing it on quality. I mean it does a nice job giving us the bones, but that's where it ends. The article tells us nothing about the organization except who created it and a basic explanation as to why. It does have reliable sources, so the article does have that going for it, but that's kind of where the positives end, other than that it's broad, but too broad. Just as the article gets interesting it ends because it seems like a notable article that's been covered by other people, so I don't really understand why it lacks the depth needed to make it an acceptable article. It technical terms, the article is acceptable because it's neutral, broad, doesn't stray too far from the original topic, and there is no original research, it's just lifeless.
