]]> 2016-11-04 02:23:36 UTC https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276452 Source 1 is more reliable (Mika) https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276548 Why?

  1. Source 1 is full of useful information which is not found on source 2
  2. Source 1 shows the Writer and the last time the website was updated. This makes it more reliable because the author is proud of his text which would not be the case if the information was false. But this is shown on source 2 a as well, but the Author is a Senior Lecturer in the War Studies Group at King's College London which leads me to believe that is is more credible. 
  3. Source 2 is BBC meaning that it is a larger website, which could lead in an overall better understanding of the subject, because everyone shares their opinion on the topic, unlike source 1 which is one persons perspective.

- Second one looks like a fake
- Who even wrote it (NVM i just found the author) 
-  Source 1 has more information, and its from the BBC
- Shows the author and last update 
- Why would you call your website "firstworldwar.com"
- limited detail
- Source 2 "A word of caution however; this is by no means an academic website" EXACTLY straight up he's giving us the answer - lad tbh but still don't use it]]> 2016-11-04 02:24:42 UTC https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276550 Source 1 https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276565 -Source 1 (BBC) is more reliable

4. Source one has co.uk while source two has .com

5. Source one has longer amounts of information unlike source two

6. The writer of source shows who they are ]]> 2016-11-04 02:25:31 UTC https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276613 Dank https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276614 Source 1 is more reliable because:
- BBC is a well known organisation which focuses on providing people with reliable information
- At the end of the document, they refer to books in which more information on the same topic could be found. They also talk about the actual author of the article and the author is a professor in war studies at a college in London
- The website is very focused around the information since there are no ads whereas on the other document there are ads that can take your focus away from the actual information being given

Source 2 is less reliable because:

bbc is reliable

Source 2 has barely anything
has ads and bad formatting]]> 2016-11-04 02:26:52 UTC https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276700 Source 1 is more reliable (Tiago) https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276707 It gives us good detail about the author and we find out that the author is probably well informed on the topic since he is a Senior Lecturer in the War Studies Group. The site was updated/uploaded more recently and there are many links on the background information on the website. Also it gives us the names of some books on this topic and books which shows that the website is quite reliable.]]> 2016-11-04 02:26:57 UTC https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276707 BBC - Kathi, Sarah, Natasha https://padlet.com/clare_kiersey1/x3acnblxbyw5/wish/135276713 -Has a background information on the publisher - senior lecturer at kings' college
-Has a bibliography
whereas:
FirstWorldWar:
-Publisher only works for the website
-No bibliography

If you click on Michael Duffy to find out about the authorat the bottom of the site, it brings you to a page about the site. On this page it states 
"it is not recommended that this site be used for academic reference purposes"
From <http://firstworldwar.com/about.htm> 

This means that it doesn’t recommend using the site for academic references.
