Article Notes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_studies

Exercise Questions: '''Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?'''
 * Yes, Everything in this article is relevant to its topic of Design. The one thing that was a distraction was having a graphic in the top right corner. It did make my eyes go to that picture first since it has color and is an object on the top of the page. Which can be a good thing, because it makes the person look at it and evaluate what they are talking about.

'''Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?'''
 * There wasn't any information that I found that was out of date. Everything was very well organized and easy to find certain items. I do like that they had a section talking about different designers and their styles, as well as a list with links of different types of Design. If I could add anything, maybe adding some more visuals to show the different styles of design. So people can get an Idea, or a link on each one listed.

What else could be improved?
 * As I look through this article I would maybe add like a graph or some type of visual that shows which design is the most popular, which do people prefer the most, stuff like that to keep the readers interested. I think that this article is very well written and organized.

'''Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?'''
 * This article covers a variety of topics and "Foundational Figures" as well as "Developments from the Global South" Seem to be the most popular topics of the article. While reading this article it seems that everything else seems to be an even amount of work, and not biased toward a particular position. Overall this article seems to be neutral with its topic of Design.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * Their weren't any viewpoints that seemed over presented but were a couple that are under presented. These include "Issues", "Concepts", as well as "Sustainment: Environmental and Social". They didn't seem to have any information for these titles. I do feel like they could have added more to the Agency of Design and how it applied to us in everyday life.

'''Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?'''
 * As I checked some of the citations, the links were working and supported the claims of the article. This is a very important tool to use while writing your article, so others can see where you obtained this information and read more about that specific topic.

'''Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?'''
 * Each of these facts are supported with a reliable reference and mostly come from a Book, or a University/College. Which means that the information is more reliable than if it came from a website. The bias is noted on the page. For example, one person is talking about if any Chinese language journal or organization having an impact on the direction of design that is comparable to the ones the writer names? There was also a question on why Development Outside Anglo-Saxon its own section?

What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?
 * Some of the conversations are about Bias, and Lack of citations in a section. They are asking why are things done a certain way, why arent there any citations in certain spots. Also, their are people that are adding to the list as well on types of Design, as well as the Qualification of information and Original Research.

How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?
 * This specific article is rated as a Class C - Mid Importance.

How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?
 * The way we have talked about this topic doesn't really differ from the way Wikipedia discusses it. It shows what questions are being asked and answered as well as when they asked the question as well. Everything we have discussed in the class, as well as the exercises are viewed in the talk page of this article.

Paraphrasing Sources: Dante's Inferno
Sources: - https://www.huffingtonpost.com/prue-shaw/why-dante-is-relevant-tod_b_4790634.html - https://www.florenceinferno.com/canto-1-dante-alighieri/ - https://www.stanforddaily.com/2018/03/09/the-inferno-today/

The Divine Comedy (Dante's Inferno) is relevant in today’s modern world views of sin, even though it was written 700 years ago. This poem tells a story of Dante’s journey into the afterlife were he goes through the nine circles of hell. He does this so he will be saved and have eternal life. In today’s world there are some people who are going through a journey like Dante. The same sins from hell in this poem are still sins by people today. During Dante’s journey in the dark forest, he wandered off from the path he was going and became lost. He symbolized the forest as a metaphor for sin. The representation of this is the suffering when people become depressed or even unsure of their path in life. A lot of people go through journeys in life to overcome fears and figure out their paths. Trying to figure a way out, he stumbles upon three beasts. Each representing a sin, a leopard, lion and a wolf. Dante then meets a man known as Publius Vergilius Maro and begged him to set him free of the dangerous woods. This is symbolizes people asking God to forgive their sins so that they may have eternal life in heaven. Those that sin are punished and sent to hell to coup with their sins in purgatory. While the ones who are redeemed are sent to heaven for eternal life. Our behavior as humans decides if we are going to spend eternity in heaven or hell. If Dante wants to be saved he has to go through purgatory and hell.

Dylan Feedback
The only thing worth editing is shortening the opening and elongate the explanation of their relevance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DzDylan (talk • contribs) 15:49, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

Reuben Fortushniak Feedback
It is written well but you want to be careful that it doesn't turn into your opinion. For example instead of sating that "Our behavior as humans decides if we are going to spend eternity in heaven or hell" you could say "so and so from such and such a journal believes that Our behavior as humans decides if we are going to spend eternity in heaven or hell". Even though your statement is most likely correct, making a verbal connection o an external author provides some credibility. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reuben S Fortushniak (talk • contribs) 15:57, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
