Article Selection

[edit]

Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

[edit]
Public Health Genomics
Article Evaluation:
This article is missing a section on history of the field. Additionally, the article does not explain why each section was chosen for being the best examples of public health genomics. There are hundreds of examples that can be chosen and there needs to be justification for why these were chosen. Additionally, the article does not have a section for a list of universities who offer Master degrees or PhD programs in this field.

Option 2

[edit]
Donor conceived person
Article Evaluation:
This article is missing information on donor conceived persons in the media. This can be added by elaborating on this in the controversy section or adding an entirely different section titled "In the Media" and adding information about Netflix documentaries or relevant news articles.

Option 3

[edit]
Non-paternity event
Article Evaluation:
One issue is that in the first paragraph the incidence of non-paternity events is stated as .4% to 5.9%. However, the citation links to an article from 2022 for a Swedish cohort study. As a result, this statement needs to be elaborated to explain the incidence in different countries, or add that this citation is only for the Swedish population. This is also a short article and other missing sections can include how people find out about non-paternity events, citing articles describing people's experiences learning of their non-paternity events through direct-to-consumer genetic testing companies like 23andMe or AncestryDNA.
