Article Evaluation: (Financial crisis of 2007–2008)
Q. Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?

-A. Yes, everything in the article seemed relevant to the topic and nothing distracted me from the topic.

Q. Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? What else could be improved?

–A. I did not see any information that was out of date or anything that was missing. I think the contributors have done a great job with the information that has already been added to the article.

Q. Are the articles neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

–A. Yes the article remains neutral throughout the entirety. None of the claims appeared to be biased to me. I believe that all viewpoints are represented equally.

Q. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article? 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?

–A. Yes the links for the citations work. Yes the source does support the claims made in the article. Yes, each fact is referenced with an appropriate reference. Much of the information comes from government websites, the U.S census, or reputable news websites such as Forbes.com. Yes, the sources that I checked are neutral.

Thinking About Sources and Plagiarism
Q. Blog posts and press releases are considered poor sources of reliable information. Why?

A. Because blog posts and news websites can be biased towards the agenda they are trying to push.

Q. What are some reasons you might not want to use a company's website as the main source of information about that company?

A. The could be biased in their reporting of information due to the conflict of interest that they have in wanting their company to look good and may leave out information that is damning to them.

Q. What is the difference between a copyright violation and plagiarism?

A. The key difference between plagiarism and copyright infringement is that not all plagiarisms are infringements and not all infringements are plagiarisms.

Q. What are some good techniques to avoid close paraphrasing and plagiarism?

A. Summarize the information in your own words and don't rely on the original information word for word. Use different sources to gather a complete idea of the information that you are providing.

 * OK, but you removed a bit too much. Links for "History of Germany" and "Munich" are fine. Also, you needed to do three articles... Dr Aaij (talk) 18:38, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
