https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Chanology
I am analyzing an article about Project Chanology; a movement against the Church of Scientology by an internet based group called Anonymous. They oppose the Church of Scientology’s withholding of information and “brainwashing” of its church members. It chronicles the activities of this group from February 2008 to November 2009. It also has information about the background of Anonymous and responses to the movement from the Church of Scientology and others.
Most of the information is cited but not everything. The introduction has information about the original video that Project Chanology published but there is no citation for the video. However, the video that sparked the formation of Anonymous and Project Chanology is cited. Overall the article does a good job at citing information. Some pieces of information are even cited from multiple sources.
The article is mostly neutral. It contains viewpoints from members of Project Chanology, the Church of Scientology, and outsiders. The article gives information about what other people thought of the movement and the unbiased facts about the movement. The descriptions of the activities are not so partisan. They show the protests in a very positive light. Quotes about the protests are almost always positive.
The sources they cite are all credible with the LA Times, National Public Radio, and the Boston Globe. When bias claims are made, it is clear which side of the argument they are coming from.
The reactions from the Church of Scientology and outsiders on either side of the movement are equally represented. There is not a lot of information about reactions of the people in the project aside from a few quotes. This is probably due to the nature of membership in Anonymous.
The information is dated. 2009 is the most recent piece of information. This may be because the project is over and no longer in progress. There is no new news to add to the article.
The first link I checked, "Confirmed: Crusaders Google Bomb Scientology", does not work. The next link that I checked “Hackers Hit Scientology With an Online Attack” does work and the information is not guilty of close paganization.
I think there could be more information on how this movement affected the Church of Scientology. It covers how they hit the church online with different hacks and document links but they don’t talk about how this affected the church’s membership. Did a significant number of people leave the church or did fewer join because of this movement?
I added content to the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center. I noticed that this page was lacking descriptions of the different concert halls and theaters in the Clarice.
