Peer Review for TheCall
[edit]Your article appears to stay on topic in most cases, however, I believe there is too much focus on the Republican Party as a whole rather than the politicians who have interacted with TheCall specifically. In that same vein, some of the statements made in the section labeled, "TheCall and Republican Politicians" may be considered by some to have a biased viewpoint. For this reason, I believe it would be best if you continued doing research into the specific relationships that certain Republican politicians have had with the organization, and remove the section that specifically relates the two.
You may also want to incorporate visual aids, such as a picture of Lou Engle or of additional gatherings.
The tone of the article and especially your edits appear to be rather partisan and are especially exacerbated by problems with sources which will be mentioned later. Directly comparing the organization with The Republican Party is a highly partisan move, especially with the sources provided, which do not corroborate any of the information linking the party directly to the organization.
It is also important to note that several of the links in the article are broken, attribute the information to biased and possibly inaccurate sources, or provide links to sources that do not specifically relate to the claim being made. These are sources 2 (dead), 6 (dead?), 7 (inaccurate), 9 (inaccurate), 12 (biased? and inaccurate), and 16 (dead).
Source 7 links to Lou Engle's FaceBook rather than supporting the claim that TheCall and The Republican Party are in agreement.
Source 9 links to a website describing The Gulliver Prophesy rather than supporting the claim that Lou Engle believes in it.
Source 12, which is used to support the claim that multiple Republican politicians are related to the organization, links to Right Wing Watch, which is a biased and sometimes inaccurate source, at least according to https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/right-wing-watch/. Looking further into the source also shows that it does not support the claims made in the section, "Other Politicians."
I highly recommend removing the information related to these dead, inaccurate, or biased sources, unless sources which collaborate their claims can be found.
There are formatting errors in the titles of the sections, "TheCall and Republican Politicians," "Rick Perry and The Response," and "Other Politicians."
