Any sources for the individuals detained?

Headline text

Does it not seem too much to ask, then to go the ways of WWII and get rid of them ?

Outdated

For Wikipedia, a lot of this page's information is outdated. I would update it, but I have no idea where anyone got the original info.

Category:Religiously Motivated Violence in the United States

Under "Alleged Abuses", we have: "Some detainees were physically and verbally abused because of their national origin or religion."

Evaluation of the article.

The names of the people referenced that are linked do not work. When the link is clicked, it proceeds to allow you to create a new Wiki page for these people. If someone is trying to find out more about these specific people, they may have a hard time.

The article is neutral in giving information. It is clear and concise and does not show any biases towards different cultures or ethnicities. For the different people it talks about, it gives a brief summary on what happened to them and it allows for the researcher to get a broad understanding, but there is definitely more research and sources that can be added into the Wiki pages. It seems as if the person added their own research, rather than facts already given from other websites or sources.

Added information about Muslims being accused of terrorists based merely on racial profiling and public fear.
