Article Evaluation and Question
editQuestion: Have any more sources been discovered that relate to Deimos, whether it be more mythological stories he has been in or more context to his role in the Greek Pantheon?
Lead Section: Does a good job in giving a detailed rundown on Deimos, such as giving insight into his heritage, family, and his basic premise.
Content: The content is very relevant to the topic, and each story with Deimos is balanced when giving the summary for what he did in each story. Although it does feel like there could be more information, sources on Deimos could be limited so there may still be new or unexplored details.
Tone and Balance: The article stays neutral, only referring to the facts about Deimos without adding any extra opinions or tidbits that do not relate to Deimos. There are no biased claims, and all viewpoints are accurately represented.
Sources and References: All the articles appear to be fact-checked, as well as pulling from original sources of work that have been verified heavily.
Organization and Writing Quality: The writing quality is crisp, consistent, and lacks any grammatical errors. The sections are broken down fairly well, although more information could be added to his roles in each work of Greek literature, but if there is none, it is no big deal.
Images and Media: The images included are minimal, but do add a lot to the topic of Deimos. They clearly demonstrate how he looked, as well as his job. More images could be included, such as more paintings from the Greek or Roman era.
Talk page Discussion: The talk page is fairly empty, but the reasonings and edits described look good.
Overall Impressions: This page does a good job at cataloguing a minor Greek God, but could use more information from other sources he was included in, as well as more images to better represent the image of Deimos. These images could be derived from his stories, or just general adaptations of Deimos.
Regarding the undo'ing of the 'References in Popular Culture' section.
editThe source used for this section was confirmed by my teacher to be reliable and useful. I made sure that any information I used was not just slightly reworded, but the main summaries from each section of the source I drew from. If there are any more problems, please let me know. Thank you. RagingWaterspout05 (talk) 20:42, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hi RagingWaterspout05, I'm not sure how your teacher arrived at that determination, but it's the consensus of the Wikipedia community that open wikis like Fandom are not considered reliable. See this page for more details. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:23, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
Good sources?
editDoes anyone know of some good reputable sources to enhance this article? It's light on information, which is keeping it as a Start-class article. Culture-Shock-02 (talk) 19:55, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
