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]

Article title
Allyship
Article Evaluation
While the content currently listed on the page has appropriate sourcing and mostly neutral, it is quite short and should be further flushed out. Going more in depth into the origins of the word, when it became more common place, what "good" allyship is defined as and what is seen as more "performative", etc. It also could go further into the criticisms of it. Overall, the article just needs more information to give readers a better understanding of what "allyship" is.

Option 2[edit]

Article title
Censorship of School Curricula in the United States
Article Evaluation
I feel that the article could be better organized and go into more detail surrounding the topic. Instead of having a singular section titled "bans on critical race theory and associated topics" I think subsections should be made to better illustrate bans on CRT, sexism, etc. instead of lumping them all together. Also, I feel like more information should be provided on the response to these bans, since surely there is more than just a subsection's worth of response. This article could also use some touch ups on grammar, diction, and appropriate capitalization (especially with titles). This is labeled a low-importance article though.

Option 3[edit]

Article title
Richard Delgado
Article Evaluation
This article appears largely incomplete. It gives a brief summary of his life and occupation, but fails to examine what his notable contributions are. It is stated that he is considered one of the founders of Critical Race Theory, but other than that his contributions to CRT are not mentioned. A subsection delving into his contributions would be usefull, as well as his work on hate speech and other notable subjects of his. Overall, this article just needs more information since right now not much can be learned about Richard Delgado. Considering he is a key figure in Critical Race Theory, I think it's important that people have access to more information about him.
