Tutorial 3 activity Discuss the reliability and usefulness of the source. A 2008 article "Mutational specificity of γ-Radiation-Induced Guanine−Thymine and Thymine−Guanine Intrastrand Cross-Links in Mammalian Cells and Translesion Synthesis Past the Guanine−Thymine Lesion by Human DNA Polymerase" was published by the NCBI (National centre of Biotechnology information) on the 11th of July. This article was written by Authors Laureen C, Colis, Paromita Raychaudhury and Ashis K, Basu from the Department of Chemistry, University of Connecticut. Being apart of a credible organisation much like a University, provides these individuals with the correct and precise information that is displaced throughout the whole of the piece. The information within the article is consistent throughout the whole text, and is supported with a number of labelled and cited diagrams. Through implementing a bibliography of citations below referencing information used within the text, further improves the reliability of the piece as the same information is seen to be shown throughout the whole of the biology department. Through utilising a number of citations, it further reveals the articles reliability and usefulness towards the topic of mutation within DNA nitrogenous bases due to the bodies exposure to γ-Radiation. As this source is 12 years old, information may be out of date due to the improvement of better research, however the authors have included telephone, Fax and email information to allow for easy contact with these individuals if any questions about the content were to occur. As this information is a high scientific level with a large amount of biological terminology, one with little to no knowledge of biology may have difficulty reading this piece as they are unable to understand the information at such a high level. This ensures that the target audience is to be one with an understanding of the topic to ensure maximal understanding of the content within. In saying this, as the piece does include a number of charts, graphs and images, individuals be at ease and be able to understand those visuals easier which in turn widens the targeted audience of this piece. This piece has 15 pages of information which to a very high extent explains the topic that is intended with great detail. Therefore, proving that this article is reliable and a useful that can be used due to its level of detail and valid information as well the specificity of the topic which provides great use to the topic of mutation and radiation.

Tutorial 2: Activity 4: "Lois McMaster Bujold – fantasy and science fiction author[citation needed]" https://www.fantasticfiction.com/b/lois-mcmaster-bujold/ This article was missing a cite that confirmed that Lois McMaster Bujold was a fantasy and science fiction author, in the URL above confirms this information.

Activity 1: The Wikipedia page 'Rafael Rivera Esbri' has been rated 'low-importance' on the projects importance scale. This is due to its little significance, however it covers a highly specific area of knowledge or an obscure piece of trivia, as revealed via the importance scale. This Wikipedia page reveals little information about Rafael; such as his early years, his mayoral work and his death and burial. In order for this article to be labeled as mid class importance the article must be relativity important to this project as well as fill in some more specific knowledge of certain areas. In order to do so, editors must incorporate higher amounts of specific information that regard Rafael and his biography. A high class article is classified as fairly important to its projects and covered a general area of knowledge. In order for this article to be considered to be high class of importance the probability of increasing the articles average views must grow, this will in turn allow this article to improve its importance. More information and specific and credible research should be incorporated to allow for a more sophisticated article that engages more viewers and assists them in proving them with the correct information about Rafael Rivera Esbri as well as his achievements. This in turn would significantly improve this articles importance levels allowing it to reach the top class importance level.
