Alicia peer review, 2017[edit]

Before adding in sections related to the background, identity training, military, etc. this page was very slim as far as true information goes. It contained a lot of resources and external links which directed the reader to valuable sources, but the availability of information directly on the page was not satisfactory. Now that the sections have been added upon, and there have been new sections added to the page, it contains valuable information and the reader can gather actual factual info from the page rather than having to go to the external links for this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aliciamarie25 (talkcontribs) 14:13, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article is fairly recent and it talks about the elusive relationship between African Americans and the law enforcement. At the beginning of the article, there is a section from the hip-hop song by Kendrick Lamar, which the author kind of agrees with. This article goes back to the Jim Crow Era in the 60s and explains the dynamics between African American males and police. This article also shines a bright light on the cultural conditioning people get about African American male and how dangerous he can be. The possible solution for the betterment of the relationship between African Americans and law enforcement would require efforts from both sides, re- education from the former and revamped training from the latter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanjogudas11 (talkcontribs) 05:28, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia peer review (Ns138)[edit]

Good overall page with a number of important points hit. The first paragraph, or the lead in section could use more wording, or more than just the definition. Perhaps it could outline the overall page before it goes into detail each section individually. There are sources that support the claims within the page. N s138 (talk) 16:50, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review[edit]

The Wikipedia page does start off well with the lead section and explaining what it is going to be about. When glancing over it, the first thought that popped into my head was how short it was but I figured maybe it just has yet to be finished. The main point of the article was training to be more competent with other cultures, this would allow for more interaction, understanding and better communication due to acceptance. The information on the page is on topic but there just isn't much of it, not only this but there was not many sources used to back up the benefits of training, nor was there evidence of the results of this training. In fact there was only one source for the entire article, it was confusing at first since as I read along there was only one in-text citation yet there was a few things that seemed to need a citation. For example, the entire section that covers the training in regard to medical students, there is not a single source yet the information is clearly something that people do not naturally know. The information used is good but the lack of sources is the issue. This is a good starting point as of right now for the article but I believe there can definitely be improvements regarding information used and increasing the number of sources. Other than that, the article is easily accessible and split up well, there weren't any mistakes I saw regarding wording or typos. Once again, all that needs to be done is include more information and sources, don't forget to use in-text citations as well. Good luck guys!

Peer Review[edit]

The lead section has a clear overview of the topic, however it is only one sentence long. Try and add more material to the lead section, maybe add the actual 4 components then talk about them seperatley further down. I don't see too many scholarly articles specifically referenced in the writing. The article has a clear focus, but leaves me wanting more to think about. The contributions take an appropriate tone towards the subject. When adding sources, click the cite button, it ads a reference number and automatically sends it to the reference tab in order. The article adds neutrality value, and doesn't add any personal opinions. In the first section, I would recommend putting the Author/study in front of the lead paragraph citing a 15% decrease in miscommunication. A bit confused over the acknowledgements section. Is it a list of the sources? Or just a list of contributions towards the cultural competency training. The article is well balanced but the lack of in-depth information isn't taken in account. Article is very readable and doesn't have any mistakes in grammar, at least that I noticed. Complex language is avoided and the article would be useful or education of all backgrounds. I would recommend overall to add more information, including examples where the training is used, and how it is important towards a companies future public relationships.

Peer Review[edit]

  • The lead paragraph does give a clear overview over what the entire article is going to be about.
  • The Main focus of the article is how to effectively interact with people of different cultures.
  • In this case, the group covered pretty much all information needed, but viewpoints from both sides, (for, against) would be helpful as well.
  • The points made in this article for the most part are opinion based, but a few more factual points with concrete evidence supporting claims would be helpful.
  • Yes, the article focuses on a clear topic.
  • Like I said above, the article is mainly opinion based but it could use some more scholarly support.
  • A few more points with different perspectives would be very helpful to the reader for answering questions he/she might have.
  • There are not very many competing arguments, this article could use a lot more.
  • The entry is well written, although I do not think the article is quite done yet.

  • I believe that the article has been proofread, I did not find any grammatical areas.
  • Yes, the article is easily accessible and a very easy read to understand the points trying to be proven.
  • Word choice was good. Complex words were used to solidify a point, and more simple words were used when trying to make the point clear.
  • The organization and style is very clear and very organized but I do not think that the article is done, the article could use a lot more points.
  • The one factual claim that was used, was in fact supported with evidence. (Need more)
  • The one reference they have is a reliable source, but they do need more.
  • The one source is represented accurately.
  • The language is precise in the details but the article needs to be finished to see the entire sources and points made.
  • The article only has one source and needs more.
  • The article needs to represent both sides of the argument in order to better understand where they are coming from.
