1. Wikipedia
According the three different ways to identify, the article of “expert” in Wikipedia is
reliability.
In the first way, we have using the Google Scholar to check the references it have
been use in the article. We found that the references are accuracy because the author,
Marie-Line Germain, Swanson and Holton are famous scholar in their area.
In the second way, we have gone through many websites such as dictionaries and
encyclopedias to seek reliable. We found that the definition of expertise in Wikipedia
was quite same with other trusted sources and the sources of Wikipedia are more
clearly than other sources because it is combining with many scholars and references.
In the third way, we have reference the sources on the websites. We realize that many
people have do a discussion about the accuracy and reliable of Wikipedia. For a
research, there have 13 percent of those in the "experts" group reported finding
mistakes in their assigned articles. But it still claims to offer a more reliable product
because scholar also will confuse, biased, or mislead. We have to judge ourselves if
we want to use the sources of Wikipedia.
2. Video about murder
1. What claims are made to explain the events surrounding the woman’s
murder?
i. Keith Luke has a history of mental illness.
ii. Keith Luke does not like non-whites people.
iii. Racism criminal cases are not supposed to be happened in this city.
iv. It is not supposed to happen to the young kids.
v. Parents brought us here (USA) to have a better life.
2. Who is asserting the claims?
i. His mother, Dara Luke, said her son was diagnosed with psychopathic
tendencies, major depression and paranoid schizophrenia when he was
14 and hospitalized for 4 years. She said her son was hospitalized at “lots
of places” as a teenager, but declined to be more specific.
This information is not reliable because it doesn’t have any doctor can
show that Keith Luke have mental illness and the sources have said he
spent time at Taunton State Hospital. So, it is not reliable.
ii. Police said Luke’s alleged rampage of hate was fueled by white
supremacist websites and the story drew national attention. Police also
said Luke was motivated by a desire to kill “non-whites.” He once
appeared in court with a shaved head and a swastika carved into his
forehead.
For his part, Keith Luke showed all the remorse of a typical white
supremacist:
“I’m sorry I shot at the cops, but I am not sorry I shot those people
at the house.”
He pleaded not guilty, and is being held without bond. So, this
information is reliable.
iii. “It’s not supposed to be happened in our city.” This sentences I have
listened at least two times in this video.
It is reliable because this kind of racism criminal case should be banned.
Today is 21st century and our society has become much more civilized
and the education level has become higher, therefore, this kind of cases
3. should not be happened.
iv. “It is not supposed to happen to the young kids.”
It is reliable because young kids are innocence. They haven’t really
enjoyed the life and should have bright future ahead of them.
Unfortunately, her life is short.
vi. “Parents brought us here (USA) to have a better life.”
It is reliable because United States America is a strong country compare
to the country in Africa. Selma’s parents brought them there in order to
have a new and better life.
