Social media bubble
editHi, I saw that you nominated this article for DYK status, however at this time the article doesn't qualify since it wasn't expanded to five times its original length in the past seven days. There are also some issues with tone, as this is written with some subjective and/or casual language, as well as some original research. Here are some examples:
- The history of SNS is indicative of where the future is going.
This can be seen as original research as someone could argue that the past doesn't automatically predict what will happen in the future, particularly with technology. If this was taken from the source material you must attribute this.
- The Social Media Bubble is not as much of a cause for concern due to "structural variations around visibility and access...[these are] primary ways that SNSs differentiate themselves from each other"
This can be seen as a subjective statement because there are some out there that see this as a fairly major issue, particularly if they believe it could have a major impact on society.
- Due to the popularity amongst all generations, it is hard to fathom as of today that a social media bubble still exists.
This is written from a personal viewpoint and is also subjective. As with the prior one, someone could argue the opposite of this.
- Classrooms are utilizing social sites such as ShowMe, and Educreations Interactive Whiteboard.
The writing here isn't really an issue, however you shouldn't hotlink to external sites in the article.
That said, the sourcing you've chosen is excellent and I think that ultimately the content just needed to be tweaked. I've done some editing and after you do some tweaking to the content I think you can move more data back in. A lot of this is just getting used to Wikipedia's writing style, which does take a bit of time to adapt to - I did the exact same things when I first started editing, so no worries. :) Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:09, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
