Article Evaluation: [[Epicureanism]]

The article does a good job of giving an overview of Epicurean views on religion, ethics, and physics. The section on Epicurean physics is detailed but missing any citations. More time could be spent detailing the evolution of his atomist theory and how his ideas have been developed and resurrected over time. Also, the section titled History focuses on the history of his ideas – the article doesn’t give much in the way of information on what is known about his life or who influenced his ideas. It is part of the Greece, Classical Greece and Rome, and Philosophy projects, and rated C-class for each project. Aside from conversations on formatting and citations, a lot of the concern about the article on the talk page focused on how Epicurean ideas of atheism and hedonism were presented. I followed several of the citation links in the History section and did find the information that was cited, but there are several facts in the section marked as citation needed.{{dashboard.wikiedu.org sandbox}}
