Talk:Nintendo Switch
From SI410
Length - the entry is around 970 words, definitely achieved the limit. I thought the material was well spaced out as well, no one chunk was too information-heavy Components of a “good” article - Good intro, talks about switch, who makes it, why it is popular compared to other products, what it is used for Body of the article is split into multiple paragraphs, makes the information easier to digest and read, and easier to find the information I need with a table of contents.
References are included in the end, but not linked within the writing, so it is a bit difficult to find where in the article certain information from the references are used. You can see the code needed to do this by doing “your text that is paraphrased/talking about your reference”[1]- ↑ citation for your source<\ref> and it should make a link within your article. Clarity - Yes, there is a clearly marked section that speaks to the ethical issues with Nintendo Switches, which includes the devices environmental impact and issues with production of the devices. For environmental impact, it is important to think about because Nintendo is such a large company, and so the fact that their environmental rating is so low is very concerning because their actions cause a lot of damage. Similarly, the production process is important to look into because these devices are so popular, but if slave labor is used to source the materials in them, then by having these products Nintendo is supporting slave labor in a big way. These are important technical issues to consider. Objectivity - The only phrase that may not be super objective is the last line of the first ethics paragraph. Everything else is very informative and doesn’t include emotion. I think having sources to back everything up would add a nice touch, but I like that you don’t just tear Nintendo down and you do include the efforts they claim they have made to better the issues that you spoke about in the article.
