Review of Ratchet (slang) Article

 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
 * Everything in the article is relevant to the topic, even though there is little written. This is understandable because there is a lot of bias that is attached to the word.
 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * I think that the viewpoints are underrepresented, only because it gives few examples of the slang word.
 * Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?
 * There are a few links in the article and they do work. They are more for definitions and links to biography pages within the Wiki site
 * Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
 * I found it difficult to find the song that was referenced in the article, a direct link to that would be beneficial.
 * Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?
 * There is nothing in the talk page, which leads me to think that this page was written by a single person
 * How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?
 * How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?
 * We visited this page in class but our discussion was more biased than wikipedia requests.

The term and concept of ratchet was displayed in the 2013 Youtube video by Emmanuel and Phillip Hudson, "Ratchet Girl Anthem- SHE RACHEEET!" .

This video brought the word ratchet into a more mainstream use

The blog article, "how to train your ratchet", uses the words unintelligent, overly basic, and sexually aggressive to describe a "ratchet" woman

Relationships
In light of the couple's divorce, Cullen's then father-in-law, W.E.B. Du Bois, presented an announcement of the divorce within the month that Cullen and Yolande had separated. The announcement described the status of the couple's relationship as well as where they would be continuing their work. The couple's divorce was also mentioned in a short article with two other couples in Paris that were granted divorces at that same time.
