This article was the subject of an educational assignment in 2014 Q1. Further details were available on the "Education Program:University of Michigan/SI 110: Introduction to Information (Winter 2014)" page, which is now unavailable on the wiki.
The primary problem with this article is the lack of credible citations. While the lead section is understandable and introduces the topic, it is too brief and does not explain unfamiliar concepts fully. It introduces many unfamiliar terms that the article does not expand on in future sections. The article is unbiased, but it does not offer equal coverage on all the components of the topic and includes some grammatical and structural mistakes.
In order to improve the article, our group plans to expand on sections that are only briefly explained. Our first priority is to find more credible sources to gather information from. The only source that the article currently cites is not a credible or scholarly website- it is simply a domain name and web design site. We will use these sources to find information and create separate sections that go more deeply into various topics, such as "Search Engine Optimization," "Cybersquatting," and "Domain Parking," all of which are briefly defined but not expanded on. We will also include a section describing the history of domain name auctions, and the legal background of such auctions.
By organizing the material into sections and building on the current material by citing additional reliable sources, we hope to make this article more complete and useful to Wikipedia users.
