For this blog post, find and read a Wikipedia article related to your topic. Then, write a review of that Wikipedia article in a blog post that addresses the following points:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Content:<\/strong> Does the article provide what you feel is a quality summary of the historical subject? How is the information organized? Are there things that are included or excluded that surprise you?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sources:<\/strong> Does the article have what you feel are robust sources? What kinds of sources does it reference? You do not need to go through every single source, but you <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">must<\/span> include your overall impression and mention at least ONE specific example of a source used by the Wikipedia article that you think is reliable (or not).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Discussion:<\/strong> Wikipedia articles are written collectively by anyone who wants to participate. Review the discussions Wikipedia editors have had about your article by going to the &#8220;Talk&#8221; page. (Can&#8217;t find the Talk page? Scroll down for some help.) In your blog post, describe one of the points of discussion. Why do you think this discussion happened? Do you think a solution was found?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be sure to include the link to your chosen Wikipedia article!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your blog post should be 2-3 paragraphs long.
