SOC 314: Wikipedia Critique an Article Assignment
Upon reading this article and checking the validity of the sources, I had a problem locating and identifying the primary source listed. The source listed was called "Gender Roles". Afghanistan country study by Nancy Hatch Dupree and Thomas E. Gouttierre. When I clicked on the source, it brought me to a page called Library of Congress Online Catalog. On the page it brought me to were a variety of books of different topics, not the particular book used for this article. So, I then used the search bar to search the title of the book, along with the authors, and no results were found. Going along with this, it's difficult for me to find similarities or differences in the article and source because I couldn't find the original information that the article was written from. Also, it is important to note that this article could be made even stronger given the use of multiple sources rather than solely relying on one source for the entirety of the article. It is essential to use a variety of sources in order to promote and ensure the validity of the information being given. To coincide with this, because only one primary source was used, it is easy to assume that this article was written using the contribution of opinions rather than facts. The use of multiple sources would've further ensured that personal feelings weren't involved, but a rather true consensus of the realities associated with this particular topic. So, in order to begin improving this article, there should be research done to find multiple sources that either relate or contrast to this source in order to establish a true meaning of what is or isn't factual.
