Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article. |
The article I chose is titled "Intelligent decision support system." All facts shared in the article are cited appropriately with credible sources. Some sources are even scholarly written. Everything in the article pertained to the topic itself. It defined what an intelligent decision support system is, gave a brief history, and explained how they are used today. Nothing was out of place in terms of the information presented. There are no claims that lean one way or the other. The entire article simply exists to explain what an intelligent decision support system is. The information provided comes mainly from sources who have done extensive research on the topic. There is even one source that is a journal entry. These are credible sources, as the authors are likely well trained in their field, or even experts. Furthermore, these sources are not biased. They simply present the information, which further makes this article credible. The links of the citations work. They link to actual sources, which again, are written by credible authors. None of the information in the article is closely paraphrased or plagiarized. The one negative thing about this particular article is that the latest source for which a date is provided is 2009, and the oldest one is 1977. Meanwhile, the last time this article was updated was October 30, 2016. This is an incredibly wide range of years, and the information is likely to be out of date. Although the article is well written and cited, the information may need to be updated.
For the editing article assignment, I chose the article entitled DeMatha Catholic High School. I have read this article multiple times over the past five to six years. This is my alma mater. I love learning about my school, before I attended, while I was there, and after I have graduated. Every time I read this article, I am reminded why I love DeMatha so much. In addition, after having experienced the culture and learned so much, I can say that everything on the page is true, to my knowledge. I feel that as an alumni, I could contribute quality material because I have experienced it first hand.
