Wikipedia Source Research

19th President of Liberia, William V.S. Tubman

President Tubman

Image provided by Google: President William V.S. Tubman

The entry about President Tubman is short. It has a very brief history on his early family life. Many of the sources are dated. The oldest source was published in 1942. The page is created on 11 Aug 2003 and last updated on 10 Feb 2013. The article is not locked. Some of the sources are from old Time magazine articles that are only available to subscribers. Another source links to Britannica, another editable site where the article is also unlocked.

However the article does highlight the achievements of President Tubman and his foreign and domestic policies. It provides a decent general description of his presidency.

Jane Browning Assessment

Jane Browning’s blog was mixed with reliable and unreliable sources because her topic was so out there. It seemed really hard to research because it was a little known myth. She had to separate facts from truth. She seemed really dedicated to finding evidence to prove her argument. Although I did find out later that it was a hoax assigned by Professor Finn.
