[edit] Review by Batmanand

  • Coverage and factuality: 7
Some of the coverage, in particular (and somewhat surprisingly) the Transport subarticle, are excellent, and really infomative. Others, such as the non-existent culture section and subarticle are not. The major problem is lack of references and inline citations. Also, the demographics section reads to me as suspect and certainly POV. It is almost certainly in need of a total rewrite
  • Writing style: 8
Apart from the POV style in the demographics section, seems fine. Again, the transport subarticle stands out as particularly lucid
  • Structure: 7.5
The sturcture itself is fine, but the districts and culture subarticles need to either be created or abandoned. The subarticle system itself is fine. The images could be more creatively placed than having them all on the right. Lead is a little short; two paragraphs would be better
  • Aesthetics: 7
Not spectacular, not "beautiful", but fine. None of the subarticles stands out, although again transport has a well-integrated table. Images are fine, but a few more (in the subarticles too) would be nice
  • Overall: 7 (not an average, I know, but I rate coverage and factuality considerably above aestetics, for example)
Certainly above average as an article, it still has some way to go. References and citations are needed, and some expansion would be nice. Some more images would also be good. The Rwandan Genocide article is better at the moment, which is a shame, but all the basics are in place now so I am confident that with collabortive editing this article can become excellent, if not featured
