Article title
Recognition signal
Article Evaluation
- While the current definition provides an overview of what a recognition signal are. It lacks to identify how we as humans understand certain signals.
- In addition, limited examples are provided under the "war" section as to how and where recognition symbols are used in the military.
- Lastly, while the wiki page does make a connection between how police view certain police signals. It does not provide an understanding on how civilians view police signals.
- The sources I plan to use will provide an understanding of how humans recognize signals, examples of where signals are used/recognized in the military as well as how civilians interpret police signals.
