Intro
Colorblindness isn't a rare thing to see in people, especially men, saying it occurs in roughly 8% of men and .5% of women are afflicted by it. However there are different versions of colorblindness, the rarest being Achromatopsia, a form of colorblindness that is complete or partial loss of all colored vision making the world appear much blander or rendering it completely greyscale. Due to Achromatopsia being so rare, not being even able to pinpoint a rough estimate of how many people have it, with it's range varying from 1/33,000 to every 1/100,000 person is born with or acquired this form of colorblindness. I visited the Achromatopsia article on Wikipedia, and found three aspects of it worth commenting on: the lack of citations, the age of the citations, and dead links.

Body
Unfortunately the article is littered with spots where is says "citation needed" which obviously means there is a lack of information. This lack of information surrounding the topic is understandable as there is only approximately .03% of people with colorblindness may be inflicted by a form of achromatopsia, which makes information extremely sparse. Due to it's rarity finding people inflicted with it makes finding sources and tests much harder to find too, of course this makes the article have only the possibility written all over it, with no real guarantees in what is said.

The age of the citations is also questionable when it comes to reviewing it. There are only two sources that have been added that were published after 2010, both of these sources are questionable however due to the fact that one is a novel published in 2015 and the other is a study done out of a university in 2011 wit no direct link. This is followed by only 7 sources made and published that have been added to this article between 2000 to 2010. After that there are only five more sources published and those sources were published in the 1970's, making these sources possibly extremely outdated and if anything they at least require a reanalysis with all the information that has been able to be learnt over the past few years.

The final issue is the dead links of the sources which had more than I would like to admit. It is entirely possible that these aren't actually dead links and I'm missing a part but for the most part these appear to be hyperlinks that no longer have an existing domain and so that link has gone blank. This not only has done damage to some of the older sources dating back to the 70's but even some of the more recent ones dating back just a few years appear to have gone dead or have been removed which at the very least has caused there to be a lack of direct connection to the information to be lost.

Closing
This article is well written there's no denying that however the information it draws from is questionable, which is understandable as it is not an easy subject to research with such a small population being diagnosed at least. There is also the possibility we just don't have the technology to look at such a rare non lethal issue (in most cases) with such depth and therefor we use our knowledge of other types of colorblindness to piece together the hardest to understand. With those factors in consideration despite being a well made article with a great depth of detail there is a great lack of credible information to be with that should be contained within this article.
