Maya_Ceramics

Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? There was nothing that distracted me, and everything seemed relevant to the topic of mayan ceramics.

Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? The article seems to be neutral and unbiased.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? The viewpoints are underrepresented as far as references go.

Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article? There are only 2 citations that I can see, and one of them doesn't even work anymore.

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? Not all facts are referenced properly. There are several paragraphs containing important information that aren't referenced at all.

Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? There is a lot of information that is missing under the headings of form and function and decoration.

Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic? There are several conversations going on as to how to properly reference added topics before they are published. There are also conversations on expanding the form and function and decoration because they are very short. How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects? This article is rated as a stub article. It is part of the Mesoamerica project, Mexico project, Indigenous peoples of the americas project, and Visual arts project.

How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class? I would not know because we have not discussed mayan ceramics yet. Sesxb7 (talk) 21:35, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

Machu Picchu
This article seems to be missing information on mythical beliefs and origin stories, as well as agriculture and diets as a part of life in Machu Picchu. Sesxb7 (talk) 16:44, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
