[edit]- Article title: Climate change
- Climate change
- Article Evaluation
- While looking at this article there is a lot of information present, however although they do site a lot of sources throughout the article, I feel as though they are citing them in a way where the information that I am actually curious to where they got it from isn't highlighted and sourced like I feel as it should be. Small words are highlighted explaining what they mean and maybe certain events listed, but not the actual sentence itself of them saying the information. Other than that I think the article is good with how much information that it provides itself but it lacking the way things are citied because there isn't really a way for me to find it and read about it. Instead of just putting a number after the sentence where I have to search and make it harder to find the source. I also would like to see an added section of where climate change is now in 2025 and the effects instead of just listing what it does effect.

Option 2
[edit]- Article title: Marketing
- Marketing
- Article Evaluation
- I think this article has great points of the different types of marketing and how they are applied through different fields etc. However, I think there should be more links added to the articles throughout of where they are getting the information. There is a lot of big spaces where they just casually reference something at the end, which to me doesn't really make a lot of sense based off the huge paragraph of information that was just explained and shared. I think besides that, I think it would be really cool if they made a section dedicated to listing marketing campaigns that have been known globally to be very successful and possibly break down why they were so successful and the steps that they took in order to get such a positive reaction.

Option 3
[edit]- Article title: Entertainment Law
- Entertainment law
- Article Evaluation
- Looking at this article I was really surprised to see how short it was. It does hit the elements of entertainment law but it doesn't really go into detail at all. I was curious to look at this one since I am currently enrolled into a media law class and I think there is so much that can be added to this page than what it has already. Firstly, I think they should have sections of media law for the different types of categories that are involved with media law and how they are impacted with certain laws that are set. I was happy to see that they do have cases listed concerning media law, but once again I think it would make a lot more sense of a viewer to be able to open this page and see different categories divided up, what law means in each one, and also provide a case concerning each category that could potentially be widely known and that way I think as a reader this page would be a lot better set up and make way more sense as a valuable source for someone to actually use if they are interested in media law as well as possibly researching what it is and how it is implemented. I overall just would like to see a basic run down for each category instead of just putting them all under a umbrella as well as the different things that media law is about.
