Spoken article quality assessment

Version reviewed: March 30, 2009

---

Technical quality: Medium

• Introduction and licensing information are appropriate.
• Standard recording format is used (44.1 kHz 16-bit mono).
• No distracting breathiness and relatively few post-processing artifacts (except as noted below).
• The following issues prevent this recording from achieving a "High" Technical rating:
  • Noticeable pops at 1:27, 2:15, 9:14, 12:57, 13:29, 14:20 and 17:00.
  • A first take at 1:30 that was accidentally left undeleted.
  • Sections 3.1 onward have a high-pitched din (most discernible on external speakers) which suggests that different noise-reduction settings were used in this portion of the article. This artifact disappears in part of Section 5 (21:37–23:52).
• Other recommendations:
  • There is a minor jump in the reader's volume at 11:06. Levelator is recommended to give the recording a consistent sound level.

---

Clarity: High

• The article is clearly enunciated and the speaker's voice is easily understood.

---

Accuracy: High

• The source material is faithfully reproduced with contents, infoboxes, quotations and images well "asided".
• Voice inflections are appropriate and pauses are well timed to separate phrases and sentences. Extended quotations in particular are well inflected.
• Minor deviations:
  • 5:24 – "Objects and information discovered on one Age" (instead of "in one Age")
  • 9:56 – "This company" (instead of "The company")
  • 12:31 – Pronunciation of "palettes" ("pa-LETS" instead of "PAL-its")
