 * Hello! After checking each individual hyperlink, I have concluded that all of the links in the Cricket article are referenced with a reliable reference. There are some sources that seem a little unrelated though, such as a source titled ‘Ode to Autumn’. This source may have provided insight to the cultural aspects of insects but I’m not sure for what purpose. Everything does seem to relate to the topic. The article talks about the physical biology of the crickets, their habitat, taxonomy, uses, purposes, and cultural value. All of these are all relevant to the topic of a cricket. The article is neutral, however in one hyperlink on a specific type of cricket, in the section where it is listing the “specs” of the cricket, it says “the best cricket is found…” which is heavily biased. It does not give much of a reason why it is the best cricket, other than biological superiority. This should be changed to a more neutral stance by saying, “It is believed that the best cricket is found”, and then explain who believes it is the best cricket. As mentioned previously, after checking the hyperlinks, there is no close paraphrasing. All of the information is derived from a small paragraph that is either quoted and properly cited and/or paraphrased with big changes, not small ones. Some information that could be added is under the “As Food” section. Entomophagy has been growing in the United States and crickets are quite popular as either gag snacks for adventurous eaters or as a serious food source. There are multiple companies that sell bugs for consumption in the U.S. but this is not mentioned. If these things could be changed, that'd be great! Thanks.
