Improving Gamble House Article
[edit]- We concluded that the article could use more information and pictures mostly. Right now, there is a vague overview of the subject, we just want to make it more detailed
Article evaluation
[edit]I just evaluated the Wikipedia page about Citation.
- Everything in the article is relevant to the topic of citation. The picture at the beginning of the article was a bit distracting at first, but it made sense later on.
- The article is pretty neutral, considering that it is is on a subject that isn't very heavily debated. It's more of an objective and explanatory view on how to cite.
- There aren't any viewpoints that I could find, the article is pretty good at staying neutral.
- All of the citations that I clicked on are working links, and they are all relevant. I could see the connection and why the authors have used those sources.
- Most of the facts are referenced with appropriate and reliable sources. Some of the facts are common knowledge, so they didn't have to cite them. There is no bias, as this article is mainly stating facts about Citation.
- I looked at the "view history" page, and the recent updates were within a month of when I stumbled upon this page. The page isn't missing anything that I could tell.
- Most of the conversations consist of questions about citation and what types exist. It seems like an educational forum.
- It is rated as Start-Class and High-Importance, which makes sense because most people need to know this, but it is basic info at the same time. It is part of the WikiProject Libraries and the WikiProject Science.
- In class, we discuss the moral values that are tied with citation, such as giving credit to the author, whereas the article is more focused on citation and what it is in general.
