Article Evaluation: 1st Army (France)

- Everything in this article seemed to be on topic. It covered three wars that the army participated in as well as some officers and the composition of the army.

- There is no information that is too out of date, though there does seem to be some places were citations may be necessary. They could also probably add more information on how the 1st Army was initially created rather than just what it did. It could use some more background information.

- The whole article seems to remain neutral and unbiased

- Not all of the links at the bottom of the page work. One of them comes up as "unfound page".

- Not all sources seem reliable.

- This is a "C" rated article.

Article Topic: The Golden Age of Baseball

This is an "S" rated article about the growth of baseball from about the 1920s to the 1960s. This article is lacking a lot of information for a such a long time period in US history. There is a section summarizing what the golden age of baseball is, some of the players, and some of the teams. There is a lot that could be expanded on in this article, because it only mentions a few players and a few teams. It also doesn't talk about the race segregation in baseball during this time at all. Further, a lot of the articles used in this article are outdated or seem unreliable.

-This article is a "C" rated article that covers how American Indians were adapted into the American culture. This article seems to stay on topic throughout the whole writing and all of the cited information appears to be relevant and reliable. Also appears to be neutral throughout the whole article and rather unbiased. However, there are some things stated within the article that are not cited and need to be, so I would be able to edit some of that in. Also, there is one section of the article that does cover the Carlisle Indian School, however I do think that there is some room to expand it. It could possibly be enhanced with the use of primary sources and a better description of what happened within the school.
-Article: History of Education in the United States
-This article covers almost all the history of education within the United States. There are over a hundred sources referenced that are used in the article and they all seem to be relevant and not outdated. It covers a lot of ground but seems relatively unbiased and neutral on all the different topics that it addresses. I believe that some sections of the article can be improved upon, such as the article on black education or indian boarding schools. The article also seems to be lacking information on the history of Special Education within classrooms, and more information about the formation of the National Teacher Association could also be added to enhance this article.
-Article: Romare Bearden
-Romare Beraten is an African American Artist that lived from 1911-1988, and this article covers most of his life and artworks. This is a "C" rated article that lacks some citations and seems to have some outdated sources. I believe that I would be able to add some more information on this artist and expand on how his art had an influence on culture. I would be able to describe more on how this American Artist portrayed what life was like for him as a black man during this time period. There also is no mention in this article of his experience of being offered a deal to play major league baseball, but only if he denied being black. I think that this is an important part of his history that should be included in the article due to the fact that this affected some of his works.{{dashboard.wikiedu.org sandbox}}
