From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? yes each fact is referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference. Each noun has a link to another wikipedia link that discusses on that particular subject.

Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? Yes,everything in the article is relevant to the article topic. One thing that distracted me was color blindness. I took it in the literal term, but realized it meant disregarding someone because of their race.

Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? For the most of the article was neutral. There was no claims or frames that appear heavily biased toward a particular position. It talked equally about each race.

Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted? All the information comes from around the world. Some of the sources are in different languages. I feel like it’s an equal amount of each race inputing their definitions on racism.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? Yes. A viewpoint that was overrepresented was white supremacy. Such as how a typical white man would own land and slaves.

Check a few citations. Do the links work? Is there any close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article? Yes the links work.No there’s no close paraphrasing. Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? No I don’t believe the information is out to date. There’s information from the 90’s till now. I believe that everything that needs to be said about racism is on this wikipedia page.

Disneyland/ Codyedit an article

[edit]

Walt Disney came up with the concept of Disneyland after visiting various amusement parks with his daughters in the 1930s and 1940s. He initially envisioned building a tourist attraction adjacent to his studios in Burbank to entertain fans who wished to visit; however, he soon realized that the proposed site was too small. After hiring a consultant to help him determine an appropriate site for his project, Disney bought a 160-acre (65 ha) site near Anaheim in 1953. Construction began in 1954 and the park was unveiled during a special televised press event on the ABC Television Network on July 17, 1955.

Since its opening, Disneyland has undergone a number of expansions and major renovations, including the addition of New Orleans Square in 1966, Bear Country (now Critter Country) in 1972, Mickey's Toontown in 1993, and the forthcoming Star Wars Land. Opened in 2001, Disney California Adventure Park was built on the site of Disneyland's original parking lot.

Disneyland has a larger cumulative attendance than any other theme park in the world, with over 650 million guests since it opened. In 2013, the park hosted approximately 16.2 million guests, making it the third most visited park in the world that calendar year.[2][3] According to a March 2005 Disney report, 65,700 jobs are supported by the Disneyland Resort, including about 20,000 direct Disney employees and 3,800 third-party employees (independent contractors or their employees).[4]


"A number of" could be changed to numerous "Disney bought a 16--acre site near Anaheim" could be changed to Disney invested in a 160 acre site in Anaheim in 1953. I'm a big disney fan and believed that most ofl the information is accurate. There could be more information on how Disney was unsuccessful on their opening and how only 28,000 people showed. There should be a section on Disney's first couple of months to show the struggle they went through, before becoming one of the top attractions in the world. They had plumbing issues, wet cement, and attraction issues on their grand opening. They should include as well hidden gems featured inside disney such as the hidden mickeys and the basketball court up in Matterhorn, or how to win a night in Sleeping Beauty's castle. There could be many more background information with each attractions (land) and each ride and where they are location. Kaitleenwong (talk) 22:26, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
