For this assignment I read Wikipedia's article on the Red River Rebellion and overall I found it to be concise and well-written. The article was full of citations to scholarly sources, such as Canadian biographies, as well as links to a number of other Wikipedia articles relating to this topic. Although there are many debates and biased resources surrounding these events (most particularly the execution of Thomas Scott), the author(s) did well in providing an unbiased, concise layout of the facts while also directly stating that this action is still debated by historians. The only issue I had with the article was that there is one section at the very end that is very brief and not as relevant as the rest of the information in the article. This section contains only one brief sentence on about the rebellion being referenced in popular culture (which is within a song), however, I believe this could be improved by either simply removing that section or adding much more references to it.
