LEAD SECTION
Does the lead include information that is not present in the article? The lead does not include any information that is not needed. The lead includes a short description of what the article is gonna be about.
CONTENT Is the article's content relevant to the topic? Yes, 100% the Wikipedia article talks about unusual deaths from the 19th-21st century
TONE AND BALANCE Does the article attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another? I don’t think that is the case in this article since it is a list of unusual deaths from the 19th-21st centuries. I think the article just wanted to inform readers about these extremely rare circumstances and how someone died
SOURCES AND REFERENCES Are all facts in the article backed up by a reliable secondary source of information? I would say yes, with over 200 references for the entire article I would say the article is backed up by a reliable secondary source of information.
ORGANIZATION AND WRITING QUALITY Is the article well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic? Yes, there are hundreds of unusual deaths listed in the article and with the article having a table of contents I think the article is very easy to locate things and when they happened with the unusual deaths
IMAGES AND MEDIA Are images well-captioned? In my opinion,I would say yes because it lists the persons death and gives a description of what happened and the unusual circumstances
TALK PAGE DISCUSSIONS How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects? The article is rated poorly but I think is a very informational article and has some really helpful information if you are doing a essay or something on the topic of unusual deaths. Also, I don’t think it is apart of any WikiProjects as from what I see
OVERALL What is the article's overall status? The articles overall status is not great but not horrible so I would give it like a C grade personally but many people may beg to differ.
