Wikipedia Critique: Akab Dzib

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akab_Dzib

The wikipedia article that I chose to look over is Akab Dzib. This is a mayan structure at the Chichen Itza site. Now the reason I chose this was it sounded cool because I never knew that some of the buildings on the site actually had names. When I went to the wikipedia article associated with it, I was kind of disappointed. There are no images of said structure that was mentioned and there are only two refferences. I feel that there would be more sources of information out there that can be used to make this article better. As well as a picture of the building!

Now as for what this article has. It’s pretty neutral for the most part and that is good since going through the Wikipedia training, they really want an emphasis of a neutral opinion. There description it gives of the building in question is pretty bland but overall gives a good idea of what it is. The author(s) describe the building in question well and talk about the various details across the structure.

If I were to improve the quality of this article, I would add a picture of Akab Dzib and try to find more sources from scholars. That would make this article a whole lot better in my opinion.
