Article Evaluation:
American Free Press

The wikipedia article itself is deemed bias against the American Free Press publication. Though It is true It was founded by Wilis Carto, an anti-semitic racist, It is one of things described about the publication. Overall, It does not seem unbiased. The first thing mentioned was the AFP's parent organization, "Liberty Lobby," was forced into bankruptcy. Just in the description of the ARP, the writer continued to say "Willis Carto, one of America's most influential political racist theorists known for his promotion of antisemitic conspiracy theories and Holocaust denial, was one of its founders."

Additionally, there is no logo or picture that represents the AFP. It needs more visual appeal. Only one viewpoint (criticism) of the publication is posted, there is no support in favor of It once again making It very biased against the newspaper. Clearly, the popular position is against the American Free Press newspaper.

Choosing an Article
1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tus_(rapper)

This is the article about Tus, a very well known Greek rapper from Athens. On his page, there is no background information of his hometown, upbringing, start to stardom, etc. One of the only things on his page is a controversial song he wrote. Though I agree the song overstepped boundaries, if I were to edit this article, the my goal would be to add background to his page just as any other United States celebrity has.

2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantelis_Pantelidis

This article is about a Greek singer named Pantelis Pantelidis. Pantelidis is one of my favorite Greek singers and was a self-taught very talented musician. This article was most likely written by a Greek because there are many grammatical and formatting errors, so I would want to first edit those. Additionally, I would like to elaborate on his death. Pantelidis died in a car accident in 2016, and though the article does reference It was a car accident I believe there needs to be more detail. When a star dies, most of the time on a wikipedia article It goes into depth as to how. So I believe I'd be able to help with that especially since I can research sources in Greek. Pantelidis became famous from his youtube videos, and I believe there should be an explanation of that as well

3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_studies

There are no grammatical or spelling errors however I believe the page should be more in-depth. It briefly overviews the background of the study of communication. I think there should be different fields added such as PR, Journalism, broadcasting media etc.

Selected Article
I will be choosing to do the article about the Greek musician, Pantelis Pantelidis. The first things I will change in the article are the numerous spelling and grammatical errors. Secondly, the majority of the reliable information I can find on the article are about his car accident, which in my opinion, the article does not talk enough about. Most celebrities' who have died have wikipedia pages that go into detail of their deaths (or even have a separate wikipedia page of its own), so I will elaborate on that.

These will be the sources I will heavily rely the details of the car accident upon:

Biography
Pantelidis was born on in Athens on November 23, 1983. He grew up in Nea Ionia, a small suburb outside Athens with his parents, Stavros and Athina, and his siblings, Constantinos and Triantafyllos. He grew up with a passion for music. At the age of 12, he asked his parents for his first guitar, which he learned to play by himself. .

Pantelidis worked in the Ηellenic Navy as a non-commissioned officer, but abandoned the career to pursue his music.[1] Pantelidis was a self-taught musician and became well-known through his music videos.[2] After his fame hit, Pantelidis continued his career in discography. He released four albums with great commercial success. Pantelidis collaborated with numerous Greek artists such as Vasilis Karras, Despina Vandi and others. He won three awards at the MAD Video Music Awards, an annual award show in Greece. He won his first award in 2013 as "best new artist," 2015 as "best Greek male singer,"[4] and "best Greek Male Singer" again in 2016, after his death. His close family and friends accepted the award on his behalf.

Youtube Success
From a young age, Pantelis Pantelidis began writing his own songs. When filming them, he began sending the videos to close friends and family, who then posted them on Youtube. In 2012, Pantelis released a video singing his original song, Den Tairiazete Sou Lew, accompanied by his self-taught acoustic guitar playing. The video received instant hype and reached over 1 million views in a short period of time. The video led to a contract with a popular Greek Record company. In 2012, his debut album went double-platinum. In the Autumn of 2013, he won the MAD Video Music Award for Best New Artist.

Death
The 32 year old musician passed away in 2016 due to a fatal car accident on the 18th of February, 2016. There here is much speculation however as to who was actually driving the vehicle. The car accident occurred on Vouliagmenis Avenue, Athens in a Mercedes SUV, just one day before he was set to perform at a well-known night club in Athens, along with Despoina Vandi and Kostas Martakis.[5][6]

In the car with him were two women, one of them being Mina Arnaouti. Arnaouti had posted photos of the crash afterwards indicating the dead body in the driver's seat. The second woman was named Froso Kyriakou, both of whom had survived the accident with major injuries.

In later a genetic evaluation, Giorgos Fitsialos, doctor of Molecular Genetics and one of the many experts investigating the case, had found in two of the samples taken from the vehicle’s steering wheel. The genetic analysis led to mixed genetic profiles of at least two persons, one of whom was Pantelis Pantelidis. The case is still being investigated.

After his death, two of his songs reached the #1 spot on the Billboard chart "Greece Digital Songs". The two songs being "Ta Shinia Sou" and "Pino Apo 'Ki Psila Gia Sena". On June 25th, Pantelidis' single was released. The single consisted of one unpublished song and one song available on videoclip, though it was planned to be on the CD. The song Thimamai in YouTube reached 30.000.000+ views. On December 14th, 2016, Pantelidis' pre-recorded song "Alli Mia Efkeria" was released via artist's official YouTube channel. The video gained over 1.1 million views within the two days after the release. After four weeks, the video reached 20,000,000+ views.

Releases after Death
On February 18th 2017, one year after his death, Karavia Sto Vitho was released and reached 15.000.000+ views within one month.

On October 27th 2017, Tha zo was released, written by Pandelis Pandelidis and sung by Amarrilis. Within one month, the video received 3,000,000 views. On December 1st 2017, the last unpublished song was released Na Se Kala. Within 1 month, the video received 6,000,000+ views.

Changes to the article: I added the entire section of Pantelidis' death, discussing the date, details, and current investigation of the car accident. I also created another paragraph in his biography with more details of his family background before he became famous. In addition, I corrected grammar and spelling mistakes originally posted on the page. I took into account the feedback from blackboard and added 4 more citations (I forgot to add when writing my draft). I also felt It was important to add a section of his fame gained through youtube, which is what I also add. After his death when he released more songs, there was some previous information, so I organized It more by creating an official section for It labeled "releases after death".

In other words, I corrected the grammar and spelling, and added 3 new sections and a total of 5 paragraphs.

Peer Review
I think this draft is the good start of Wikipedia project!!Noting that Wikipedia pages about celebrity who died by accidents mainly focus on the death is interesting and it is not acceptable. Their activity should be spotlighted as well as their death. Biography section is great contribution. To improve this article, I want to know more about why his songs could success commercially. Was it just because his songs were great? Or did he have specific reasons?
