That's All!

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?

[edit]

This article is one that I have edited briefly. I intend to come back to it and fully flesh it out because of how lazily it was thrown together, especially for an album that is relatively important in the canon of such a culturally important performer/artist.


Evaluate the article

[edit]

The main issue with this article stems from the sheer lack of information and sources used to create it. That being said, the little information exempts it from criticism regarding tone and bias. It is an extremely informational page, and the bones of a good page are there, but there needs to be a great deal fleshed out. The most glaring issue is the references page. The only reference page used is an Allmusic review, when there are a great deal of resources that could be consulted for making an accurate page for this record. Decca Records has an enormous amount of archival information that could fill in the blanks on some of the gaps in personnel. In addition to this, I made by simply consulting the liner notes of the physical record. In addition to this there are some embedding issues. There are a wide array of composers that are listed with links to their individual pages, but there are a number of important composers listed who do not have their pages linked. A quick google search can prove that some of these individuals in fact have wikipedia pages that can be embedded. It looks like the person who created this page simply copy and pasted what was listed on Allmusic, with little regard to how the composers names and credits were represented. There are also discrepancies on the recording information of the record considering it is a generally known fact that some tracts are recordings from concerts separate than the one that was used for the majority of the record.
