Activity 1 Tutorial 3: Wikipedia Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Computer_Products Currently this Page is rated a Start-Class rating for quality, to elevate this pages rating to an A-Class level it would need to delve into its success and compare it toward competitors, whether that be in Seattle or in other cities and states in America. Further, Page Layout would need to be considered in order to improve this Page, it currently only has one heading which is "Corporate History". Perhaps, subheadings such as: - "Current Success" - "Products on Offer" - "Finance" - Marketing etc Peer review would also help improve the WikiPage and become more informative for the reader.

Tutorial 8: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_11_attacks This article that me and my partner are reviewing overall is a well, written, non-bias article on the 9/11 attacks in 2001. This article covers the 6 good article criteria by: 1. Well-written- the authors of the 9/11 wiki page explore all of the events that occurred in great detail, moreover, in a simple and concise manner which conveys the sequence of events, and the context of Al Quaida that led to the events. 2. Appropriate references and citations, this article contains 381 references, meaning that the article is broad in its coverage and also verifiable. The September 11 attacks has been listed as a level-4 vital article in history.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paulo_Adriano Paulo Adriano This article is of stub class, and hence contains very little valuable information. Being about a low level professional footballer, it is not a notable topic that would have had a high demand. It is clear, and well written, the problem however is that there is barely any content. The only information covered is the fact he was Portuguese footballer, who is now retired, and played for the two clubs Brasov and Anadia. It is not bias in any way, but its length is far to short and does not make use of references well. There is no actual reference list provided. It does follow proper navigational procedures by providing a number of links allowing us to branch out and branch in on the topic. Overall, a poor article
