Peer Reviews

(peer review) The article itself has a pretty good structure formation. It mentions headings that are a good overview and specific enough to cover the World Bank's broad efforts while using concrete examples of relevant projects. The main topics of the sentences in each of the subsections is directly relevant and clearly jumping into the topic planned in the heading. I think what I would work on is making sure that not every paragraph that is written has a heading. There's a good overview of each relevant topic in terms of its relation to the overall program's implementation in the country, but I think it could use a bit more analysis in terms of the projects intentions as well as the long term implications that the programs will create. I think that would substantiate what you are saying a bit more and create a direct relevance to the overall impact and meaning of the World Bank's presence and work in the region. What does distract me a bit is how the last sentence in the "Infrastructure Projects" section leads the discussion into a different topic but doesn't really jump into the implications or the impact of the projects being there and/or why this was a strategic way to go about in search of a remedy to the region's economic weaknesses. I think this type of detail in each section would add a lot of flow and create a visualizable page that separates each of the program's methods and outcomes. It's not exactly necessary, but something I would do. Other than that the intent of the article is clear and the type of impact the World Bank has in the country has a good introduction in each of the sections you've created so far.

(Peer Review) Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Yes, all references are appropriate and reliable to the topic. Yes, the references are all appropriate and reliable.

Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Yes, all information in the article is relevant. The only exception is the inclusion of the external link to ‘Peer Steinbrück’, which seems to be out of place on the page. Yes, the content is relatvent to the topic.

Is there anything that distracted you? There are grammar errors every once in a while, but other than that it is well made. There is no grammatical mistakes.

Is the article neutral with neutral sources? Yes it is not bias in any one way or another. Yes, the tone is neutral.

Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? No there is not. No, there is no biased claims.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? No, I believe this page gives a good summery of the relationship between the World Bank and Singapore. The viewpoints are proper and factual based.

Do the citation links work? Yes, all citations work. There is one citation however, Citation Six, that only takes me to the home page and not to a specific article. Yes, the citation links work.

Is there plagiarism in the article? No, there is no plagiarism. No, there is no plagiarism.

Is any information out of date? No, it is all current and relevant. Yes, the information is updated.

Is anything missing that could be added? While the citations are sufficient for the page, more information and examples of the World Bank and Singapore relationship would definitely help the page. The article has no grammatical mistakes, have proper tone and is appropriate in writing style. The first section of the article gives brief and succinct background information on the World Bank in Singapore. However, for the second part, the Infrastructure Projects, there is only one project described. Is this the only WB project in Singapore? If not, maybe you can offer further information on the is content. Pckoenig (talk) 21:03, 9 June 2017 (UTC) Paul Koenig

(peer review) The layout of the page is really well done. There is good information and it gives a nice overview of the history. The tone of the writing is also appropriate. However, I'm not sure why there is a link to Peer Steinbruck in the external links section.Twambach13 (talk) 00:31, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
