Article Evaluation

This is the Article Evaluation of the article on the USS Artemis (SP-593).

Evaluating Content

All the information present is relevant to the topic, that being the USS Artemis. Nothing stands out as being out of place around the history of the ship and it is all up-to-date given that the ship sank in the 1920s and mostly forgotten.

Evaluating Tone

This is the first big problem in the article. The entire article is written in a tone that could be described as story-telling instead of giving facts. Here is an excerpt from the article.

"After the U.S. entered World War I in the spring of 1917, the Navy, in its wide-ranging search for ships suitable to serve as patrol craft, acquired Artemis early that summer. Delivered on 4 July 1917, the yacht was earmarked for "distant service" 10 days later, and assigned the identification number "SP-593"." Bolded are portions I find problematic. This is everywhere in the article.

Evaluating Sources

There is a single source for the entire article placed at the very end. I have no idea if it just for that portion of the article or the entire article. Since it is a newspaper and not an online source, there is no way to check.

However, in external links there is a link to a website page talking about the ship. A quick look shows that the vast majority of the article is copy-pasted or a near copy of this article which itself I would consider probably reputable but there is no way to prove if it is.

The Talk Page

The talk page is totally empty.

Choosing a Topic

Amarok (wolf)

Only has two sources, both are books. Article is a bit empty but looks like more could be added with just a few more sources. The talk page has one comment saying the information is basically the same as on another website and that it's questionable at best. Also, it has no pictures but given Amaroq is from Inuit culture they may not have had any depictions.

Huēhuecoyōtl

Only has two sources, one of which is not that great and it looks like it could be improved upon a lot. Not sure how many sources are out there on it, however. The article is evenly written with nothing in the way it is written standing out as unprofessional or bias.

Mama Killa

Has a good number of references but not very much meat to the article. There is a concern most sources would be in Spanish which I cannot read.

Supay

Only has one source and is very bare bones and with only a few more sources, a lot could be done. There is a concern most sources would be in Spanish which I cannot read.
