# Web Search and Evaluation
## Google Search
In my search I put the phrase "Northeastern University" with wikipedia. I searched "northeastern university" site:wikipedia.org and almost every single website that came up had the phrase and each site was wikipedia whether it was a different topic about the school or in a different language. I received about 12,800 results in 0.4 seconds. 

I also searched skate fish rink and came up with about 3,590,000 in 0.77 and came up with many webpage results of an ice skate rink in Japan with dead frozen fish in them. One of the links below

I then went in search for Northeastern Huskies between the times of January 2001 to 2002 and got results like the sports teams at the time. Like the womens rowing team and the academics as well. Below I have added some links from my search. I received about 274 results

I also searched an image for ["Penguin Pair"](https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fdavidstanleytravel%2F15798589947&psig=AOvVaw2FrM-5qnVVZuTRTZV2q5Hz&ust=1674612341443000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CA8QjRxqFwoTCKjYq6CP3_wCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAE) with a creative commons license and selected the top one. 

## Web Credibility

I want to bring the onion as a questionable news source in terms of credibility. The onion has been known to be a satiracal site but viewers have stated many times that they find it hard at times to tell the difference between what is real and satiracal. I pulled up one of their articles titled "New Pediatric Guidelines Recommend Obese Children Compensate With Personality". For starters I do not seem to find an author for the page which would make it difficult for me to verify the article. Which is the first step the article in Berkely stated to do. One thing that I can verify is where it was published in Itasca, Illinois. 
## Wikipedia Evaluation
Through Wikipedia Professor Reagal is said to have worked at the World Wide Web Consortium and had his book "Good Faith Collaboration" as a bestseller. When they attached links to these two claims it was more descriptions rather than proving that the claim is accurate. For example Wikipedia gave us a description of what the World Wide Web Consortium is and what his book is about not showing if it was best selling. 

The page history of wikipedia was created September 20th 2004 and since thne has been edited and or changed about 500 times.
