The article that I chose to critique is Zero-Rating. This article gives the definition of zero-rating which is extremely helpful for those who do not know what it might be about. It also cites certain words that may need some clarification as well. A big issue is that a major contributor to the article has a close connection with the topic and that can interfere with the integrity of the article and maintaining a neutral point of view. Since this is important to Wikipedia, it is one of the first things that you see when you enter the page. When I googled this topic, this page was the first link to click onto, which can be a good and big thing. The citations can be better and from more trusted sources. There is a link that reads "content not found" when it is clicked, so it either needs to be updated or removed. This article has clear headings and sub-titles which makes it easier to understand. There are some "citation needed" tags throughout the article which needs to be tended to. This article needs some work but it is majorly well done, it just needs to be reviewed and be trustworthy since it is a conflict of interest. Uchechi. (talk) 20:10, 24 February 2017 (UTC) Also with this article after reading the talk page, some editors/contributors that point out that definitions are wrong, which I previously thought were right. I honestly, am still unsure on how to critique these articles hopefully I can improve and therefore bring in sound contributions. There is a table that expands on countries and telecommunications carriers offer zero-rated services. Further reading, zero-rating has to do with almost everything concerning the internet, net neutrality should be defined more . There needs to be more academic journal references and they need to be updated. This zero-rating article could be longer and contain more neutral information. This topic is interesting and with more looking into I am sure that there can be more contributions and interest. Uchechi. (talk) 20:46, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Urban Dictionary

[edit]

I chose to add to the article Urban Dictionary, this addition might be removed but in the article https://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2012/mar/13/urban-dictionary-redefines-literature-names there is stated that Wikipedia and Urban Dictionary are similar because they allow contributions. I think that this is pretty cool and allows for a better teaching, learning, and understanding of how a website works. I hope to get better at finding sources to cite from and reference, I feel rusty but am eager to improve and learn. Uchechi. (talk) 04:55, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[1][reply]
