Article Selection

[edit]

Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

[edit]
Article title
Guzheng
Article Evaluation
The article has relevant content about the instrument and the different styles and techniques used to play the instrument. it is written neutrally, except for one claim that this instrument's sound is "deeply loved by the Chinese" which sounds biased, even though the claim was cited. Not every claim has been cited, any many of the citations come from history journals. Since there are still people that play this (I played this instrument in high school) maybe there should be more sources from news articles and players today. There should also be more examples of what they listed.
Sources
if I want to expand more on the styles of music, I found a website that explains the Guzheng schools/styles. One page has its sources so I think that is a good place to start. I can also find examples of playing through videos, and different songs that show "modern Guzheng music" and I can also find examples of the instrument used popular culture.

Option 2

[edit]
Article title
Seventeen (South Korean Band)
Article Evaluation
The article has relevant content about the group. It is written neutrally, but the content is not up to date. It is missing information about 2021 and could use more detail in song writing credits. Maybe there should be a portion about artistry and their contributions to their own work. The article briefly mentions that the group participates on their own work, but their contributions include most of their song lyrics, dance choreography and even conducting their own photoshoots. Their claims are cited, and the citations seem to be reliable since they come from news articles and there is a lot of coverage.
Sources
One source could be the copyright website where all their songs are copyrighted. I could expand on their artistry and take their recent interviews about the music they write and how they come up with their music. Recently they had an interview with the Grammy Museum about their artistry so maybe I could write more about it here.

Option 3

[edit]
Article title
VIXX
Article Evaluation
This article has relevant content and is written neutrally, however there are citations needed. When content is cited, the citations seem to be reliable because they come from news articles. In portions about their music there is more description about some of their songs but others do not have much of a description. I think I could expand more on those details and put the description for those songs.
Sources
It might not be the most reliable source, but there are articles from when the songs come out that describe the theme. I can take those articles and expand on their artistry and inspiration.

Option 4

[edit]
Article title
NCT (group)
Article Evaluation
This article has relevant content and is written neutrally. Each claim is cited and the citations seem reliable because they are from news articles. The content is somewhat up to date, but it misses some achievements that the group has received, and it does not mention much of about their artistry. Although there's not much information about their music and artistry, they have a unique music identity that I think readers can benefit from.
Sources
Some sources I can think of are the news articles regarding their latest achievements and interviews done with their music producers that describe their artistry. A person on YouTube did an interview with one of the producers that have worked with the group multiple times, so I think there might be some information I can use for their page.

Option 5

[edit]
Article title
Golden Child (band)
Article Evaluation
This article is written neutrally, but there is a lot of content missing. It is also not up to date because in the past few weeks the groups have had some achievements that are not mentioned. It also misses much about their artistry, but that would be harder to update. Besides that, there is missing information about their shows and appearances on TV.
Sources
Sources I can think of include news articles that describe their achievements and news of their appearances on TV. Finding sources on their artistry would be a bit more difficult because there is not much coverage about their own work on their music or their artistry. There might magazine articles that will briefly talk about them, but I'm not sure if there is more I can find.
