**Web Credibility:**
[**Link to the fake news source I found**](https://www.google.com/search?q=%22skate+fish%22+-ice&sca_esv=4794ee3134a61051&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1%2F1%2F2014%2Ccd_max%3A4%2F30%2F2014&ei=rci6ZYfuCYGw5NoPmq2c6Ao&ved=0ahUKEwjH-NDE1YiEAxUBGFkFHZoWB60Q4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=%22skate+fish%22+-ice&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiESJza2F0ZSBmaXNoIiAtaWNlSMznAVAAWPrdAXACeACQAQCYATWgAc8IqgECMjO4AQPIAQD4AQHiAwQYACBB&sclient=gws-wiz-serp#ip=1)

In the fake news source that I found, I had questioned its credibility through the misleading/intriguing headlines, the satire that is presented through their information, and the improper resources that it links. According to SLJ, for example, a lot of fake news resources can be found through satire, such as click-bait. The article also made a good point in mentioning how these headlines/other informations also present very intriguing headlines. In the news source I had found, there had been quite intriguing, yet satirical headlines, such as “Boston: Unsold Lab Grown Diamonds Are Selling Almost For Nothing!” Though, when I click on the link, it only takes me to a web source, and not actually to a page with evidence of “lab-grown diamonds” that are being sold for “almost nothing”. Furthermore, much satire/misinformation on this website is found through misconstrued medical information, which are turned into generalizable quizzes/tests, such as “Hidden Signals You Have Bipolar Disorder. Take The Quiz Now” this allows  people to just diagnose themselves, without any other official/medical information needed. Furthermore, Berkeley’s website also describes how a valid website, such as a news source, should have primary, or secondary, resources. However, in this website, there had only been links to blog posts and no other primary/research sources cited elsewhere for confirmation of evidence. 

**Wikipedia evaluation:**
According to [Wikipedia: Verifiability](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability), the first claim that (a) Joseph Reagle worked at the World Wide Web is true, as according to the website, there must be sources that support the claims that should be found on the page. [On Reagle's wikipedia page](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Joseph_Reagle&oldid=620740325), there is a foot-note for w3.org under the 'References section'. On the other hand, claim (b) may not be true, as there isn't any sources/foot notes associated to Good Faith Collaboration being a bestselling book.
