Article Evaluation

[edit]

1. Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Each fact is not referenced with an appropriate reliable reference. There are too many spammy commercial references and excess filler contents meant to support adding spam links.

2. Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? Everything in the article that was talked about is relevant to the article topic. There were a few things that distracted me. But by distracted I mean kept me reading and not worrying about anything else because I was so interested in the article.

3. Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? The article I think is neutral, because it talks about all different types of bodybuilding whether it is female or male bodybuilding. Some frames were a little biased towards the female bodybuilding section. This was because, female bodybuilding began a lot later than male bodybuilding.

4. Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that biased noted? The information comes from people that are familiar with bodybuilding and know a lot about it. I believe some of the sources are not neutral due to the fact some are coming from men and some are coming from women which gives them certain opinions on bodybuilding.

5. Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? Male bodybuilding is more overrepresented in the article than females because there are more males in bodybuilding. The female bodybuilding is underrepresented because there are less females in bodybuilding.

6. Check a few citations. Do the links work? Is there any close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article? The links do work when I click on them. There is some paraphrasing but no plagiarism that I noticed or found in the article.

7. Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? The information that is given varies. Some is from the date of today and some from a while ago. There is some information I can think of I could add right off the bat.

Bodybuilding.com - The Female Training Bible: Everything You Need To Get The Sexy Body You Desire!" Bodybuilding.com. 14 July 2009. Web. 1 Apr. 2015.

• “Many women worry that weight training will somehow transform them into Hulk-ettes, so they spend hours doing cardio in order to maintain their "feminine" figure. The truth is, women just don't have the hormonal support to gain muscle mass like men.” • “The more muscle you have, the more calories your body will burn. The more calories you burn, the leaner you'll get. Increased muscle mass will also add shape to your arms, take inches from your tummy, and even add some roundness to your booty!”

Shrit, Abdullah F. "CREATIVITY OF GOD IN THE HUMAN BODY "BODYBUILDING"" Google Books. 31 Mar. 2013. Web. 1 Apr. 2015.

• “The 1991 Ms. Olympia was the first to be televised live.” • “Lenda Murray barely edged out Bev Francis, a former Australian power lifter, by a single point that year. Lenda Murray faced a serious challenge from Denise Rutkowski in 1993, and some argue that Rutkowski, not Murray, should have won that year. • “1992 Ms. Olympia changes in response to the increased size displayed by Murray and Francis at the previous Ms. Olympia, the IFBB made an attempt to “feminize” the sport. • The IFBB, led by Ben Weider had created a series of “femininity” rules; one line in the judging rules said that competitors should not be “too big”.

Huxtable, Elsie. "History Of Women's Bodybuilding." History Of Women's Bodybuilding - by Elsie Huxtable, Strongwomen - Women's Fitness. Web. 1 Apr. 2015.

• “Female bodybuilding is one of the most controversial sports in the world.” • “The history of female bodybuilding is controversial in itself, even the very beginning of "strongwomen" is disputed. As a general rule, strong and aggressive women are hard to come by in history.” • “The idea of women showing strength and aggression can be seen in the Minoan civilizations of ancient Greece.”

Dobbins, Bill. "The History & Evolution Of Women's Bodybuilding." The History & Evolution Of Women's Bodybuilding. 12 Mar. 2013. Web. 1 Apr. 2015.

• “The nature of bodybuilding dictates that when genetically talented people do the right kind of exercises with enough intensity and consistency over a long enough period of time, they’re going to continue to develop bigger and bigger muscles.” • Kim Chizevsky won the IFBB Ms. Olympia competition in 1996 (and for the next three years as well), defeating six-time champion Lenda Murray. Kim was simply too big for Lenda, who had been “protecting her lead” for years by concentrating on getting in her best competition shape each year but not getting any bigger or more muscular. • Women’s bodybuilding began to wane in popularity when the industry magazines began to cut back on their coverage of the women. The evolution of muscle was also moving at an accelerated rate. Plus, there was the drug element. Much of the reason the sport was so popular in the early years was because it was so new and different. There was a strong curiosity—even from the mainstream population—about women who were challenging their physicality on a stage where the criteria and judging had to do with a muscularly developed physique, not a beauty contest.

Andersen, Charlotte Hilton. "True Life: I'm a Female Bodybuilder." Shape Magazine. 21 Aug. 2012. Web. 1 Apr. 2015. • “There are four main categories of female bodybuilding:

1. Bikini: "A softer look" that's more focused on the traditional female body shape. 2. Figure: "Still looks very feminine but emphasizes muscle definition and symmetry," Steve says. 3. Physique: This category is more about muscle size and development. 4. Body Building: This is the heavily muscled/low body fat look most people usually think of.”

Lieber, Chavie. "Muscling In: The Rise of the Female Bodybuilder." Racked. 02 Oct. 2014. Web. 1 Apr. 2015.

• Bikini, specifically, was introduced to appeal to women who didn't want an excessively muscled body; judges in that category look for a physique that "is realistically toned, that a stay-at-home mother could attain and maintain • Athletes are split into groups based on height and judged on features like small waists, toned shoulders, lean abs, and good posture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.247.99.136 (talk) 02:29, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
