# Web Search and Evaluation

### Google Search
#### *What would you query to see how many pages on the English Wikipedia site mention “Northeastern University”? How many results did you get?*
One would input limitations in the search fields that Google uses to define results of specific searches, whereas in this case one defines the language as English, the domain as wikipedia.org, and to find pages exclusively with Northeastern University in them (in the 'all these words' category. With this, about 67,300 pages result.

#### *What would you query to see web pages about the skate fish but no pages about an “ice rink”?*
One would indicate in a Google advanced search that they needed to find this type of information by searching with skate fish in the 'all these words' query and ice rink in the 'none of these words' query.

#### *What would you query to see Web pages about the Northeastern Huskies from the first day of 2001 through the last day of 2002?*
In a Google search of Northeastern Huskies, the time limits can be imposed by selecting Tools under the search bar, and selecting the drop down menu titled 'Any Time', where one can type the desired beginning and end dates needed for the search.

### Web Credibility

Link to web page of questionable credibility:
[This Is the Ugliest, Most Explicitly Anti-LGBTQ Presidency in U.S. History](https://www.cosmopolitan.com/politics/a12824195/lgbtq-transgender-discrimination-donald-trump/)

Just by reading the title of this Cosmopolitan piece, it becomes apparent that the content of the article is questionable. Upon reading the content of the article, bias begins to become more apparent and prevails as the dominating factor in captivating the reader's attention. In a deeper investigation, it becomes apparent that the author of the article strictly identifies as a political article, when she has only written one post (which further supports the idea of bias being prevalent, as there are no other works to generate a baseline sentiment from).

### Wikipedia Evaluation

#### *How does these claims relate to the policy of Wikipedia:Verifiability? Would you suggest any changes to the page?*
The claim regarding involvement in the W3C is undeniably true, and can be verified with outside reference, through Google Scholar and the W3C itself (referenced in the Wikipedia page), but the claim about the novel being a best seller is questionable (in accordance to hte Verifiability's 'Questionable Sources' section). Sources were not provided to prove how well the novel sold, but information could be found solely about its publication and the topics covered.

#### *According to its history, when was this article first created?*
