What it takes to be a good webpage

So our group project focuses on Japanese elite burials across time, we'll try to look into the material culture, religious beliefs etc. I'm responsible for looking into the Japanese Kofun, not as a period of time but as a specific type of site. I did some googling and find one site that I like: link.

So here's my grading:

This site provides a good overview on Japanese Kofun, but I deducted 1 point each on "Reference/Citation Styles" and "Quality of Research" because the citation style is clearly not Harvard style which it not the writer's fault, but based on this rubric it cannot be a 4 on this section. The quality of research is good, although I think more sources should be used in this writing as the author only have 2 sources.
