Article evaluation: I chose the article "U.S national anthem protests (2016-present)" from wikipedia as an article that relates to my research this semester. Everything in this article is related to my topic because it is a timeline about this whole situation, it also provides some interesting cases in this situation. Even though the article is a timeline, it seems to be towards Colin Kaepernick's side because it describes why he kneeled during the national anthem, and it also dedicated sections to explaining what other athletes are also protesting. There mild and radical viewpoints are under-represented in this article because it only talks about what happened and does not talk about the positions of this argument. The citation links does work but when I click on them it does not lead to the relevant sources. The facts does have reliable references, when I click on the reference from a fact in the article, it takes me to the actual website where the facts were pulled from. All of these information are not out of date because this situation's timeline is very recent. There are conversations about how the rules of whether or not to stand for the national anthem should be interpreted. The article is rated C-class, low importance, it is a part of the wikiProject Baseball, basketball, United States and National Football League.

Notes:

The radical side of the situation is saying that kneeling during the national anthem is disrespectful to the flag and the country, but kneeling is seen as a respectful gesture.
