Article Evaluation
Evaluation of Wiki Article: Home economics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_economics)
- Clearly, a well structured article with multiple legitimate sources
- I especially like how methods in which the science of home economics is taught be listed by country
- The information is precise and the paragraphs separate concise relevant information
- Although there is the use of multiple adjectives, there does not seem to be a strong biased opinion for any element discussed
- Most, but not all, citations were from a singular source: Goldstein, Carolyn M., 2012. Creating Consumers: Home Economists in Twentieth-Century America. Chapel Hill: The University of North Carolina Press.
- Multiple talk subjects have been created to improve the article
- Some improvements done have been noticed as great elements of this article as I made my first pass at it
- Examples of improvements are the college list and relevant links which I appreciated but did not mention above
- A merger of articles has been made to benefit the individual who would search for either terms (Home Economics & Consumer Science)
Peer Review - Transnationailty (Article Draft by José Vasquez)
Hello José! First, I would like to say how great it is that you have identified some key aspects of the article that you want to improve. You mention how "very vague" the current article is and that its language is "not approachable to a general audience". I can definitely agree with these two points being an important element to focus on when working on this article. I too have noticed, depending on the field of study the articles’ content relates to, that many articles’ wordings seem to be written in a method by which university graduates and researchers structure their findings in their papers. It’s indeed great that you and your team will turn an article that is not so easy to read into an article anybody with a common understanding of the English language can comprehend.
It sounds like an excellent idea to include a list of companies and organizations that function beyond and within many different state lines. This, however, may be a little risky and will require close attention to the selected companies’ function and production methods. I also recommend to do research on what exactly makes an already officially established transnational company or organization what it is. There are likely to be different possibilities in becoming a transnational company or organization and listing the different methods (with one or two real examples of institutions that fit the description) may help out in fleshing out the article.
This idea of updating the article is very important in my eyes. The advantage of Wikipedia is that it is somewhat an organic, living encyclopedia that perpetually grows and adapts. Adding real world examples of corporate entities and organizations that functions and influences by means of transnationality to the article will certainly help the article grow and provide more useful and relatable information to the subject. I’m pretty convinced that you and your team will provide a great addition to the article and the worldwide Wikipedia editing team.
