Revision as of 16:17, 12 October 2018
Article evaluation: Pirogue
Not everything in this article about the Pirogue boat is relevant to the topic. One thing that distracted me was the last sentence in the page that was about misunderstanding a song lyric. However, none of the information in the article appears to be out of date since the boat hasn’t changed since it was created. This being said, there could be a section included in the article about how the boat is currently used for either recreational or professional use.
The article could be considered to have a Louisiana bias since it has a whole section about the boat in relation to Louisiana even though it has been used all around the world. Because of this, one viewpoint that may be overrepresented is the American viewpoint of how the boat is used here.
The links work and support the claims made in the article. Though, not all the facts referenced in this article are backed up with a reliable source. For example, one of the links is a blog post. However, the rest come from museum links. They are neutral sources though.
There aren’t many conversations happening behind the scenes on this topic since it is a niche field of interest. This article is rated as a Start-Class and as Mid-Importance on the WikiProject Fisheries and Fishing and as Start-Class and Low-Importance on WikiProject Africa.
This wiki article doesn’t have much to do with what we have covered in class. However, it is related to the way we’ve discussed how to show proper scholarship on Wiki.

Editing an article: Prostitution in Israel
For my edits, I added some information to the page "Prostitution in Israel." The information I included were from news articles, a museum page, and a government website. This information included history on where the women that are either forced into the trade or willingly come into it typically originate, plus, current status on prostitution within Israel and how laws may change in the country.
