Bio
editAbout me
I am a college student who is also working a part-time job with animals. I am currently trying to get my business degree to one day own my own business. I am currently working on getting my insurance license to become an agent. I hope that one day I can achieve this goal. I was thinking about starting my own insurance company. I am a hard worker, so I believe that I can make it happen.
My Wikipedia activities
I created this account because my professor used it as an assignment to create an account and a bio. I will mainly be using Wikipedia as a source to find the correct information. I will also use it to figure out the fake from real news. There is a lot of fake news out there, but thankfully Wikipedia is the resource to help people figure out if it's fake or real.
Article Evaluation
editThe article I am going to talk about is about a rapper and his life story. I visited the “Del the Funky Homosapien” article on Wikipedia and found three aspects of it worth commenting on: the article is not up to date, missing important details/information, and there are grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors. This article is about a rapper and his life story.
First off, I want to start by saying that it is very important for an article to be up to date to the present day. For instance, when I scroll down to the bottom it says that the article was updated this year which is great but, in the third section of the article, it says present-day and states 2006. It is currently the end of 2021 so I’m sure a lot has changed about this rapper since 2006. The writer could have added the 2006 present to the middle era and created a new present section for 2021, to give proper information.
The next thing I want to talk about is the parts that I think are missing in this article. It is very important to have background information when writing an article about someone. The writer talked about his background but didn’t mention anything about his immediate family. The writer talks about his cousin Ice Cube in the first section but that’s it. Family is important to talk about, like your parents or siblings. Your family experiences growing up can impact the person you become and the things you do. This is why it would be important to put that in the article.
The last thing I want to talk about in this article is the spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors. When I was reading through the article, I noticed errors as small as “tha,” and just missing commas in several places. Making sure that you don’t have these errors in your writing, especially when it’s being published for the world to see is important because if you people to take it seriously, you must show you can spell, punctuate, and use the right grammar.
To conclude my thoughts overall, I just want to say that even the smallest things that are missing or written wrong can affect the whole article. It is very important to update the article, make sure you're not leaving out important events or information, and triple-checking your work to make sure grammar, punctuation, and spelling are correct.
