COVID-19 & Racism

COVID-19 & Racism

Hi,

Thank you for your thoughtful and in depth wiki post regarding COVID-19 and the heightened racism towards Asians as a result of it. Your wiki is very well written however, I think that it could benefit from a bit more clarification. Under the header "Resurfacing Racism" you mention that this is due to misinformation however, you do not go into much depth about what this misinformation is. I think that adding a header called "misinformation" in which you can discuss the "misinformation"and allegations flanked upon Chinese people and others of Asian descent would make your wiki page more comprehensive. Perhaps changing the name of the section "How have racist attacks been triggered" to something around the likes of "Misinformation, Racism & Prejudice" would be a better name for that section as it slightly touches on the issue of misinformation but does not really detail it. As well, I would suggest a grammar check, I noticed a few grammatical errors and repeated words. For example, under the header "How have racist attacks been triggered" you write, "Sadly this is not the first time bias bias has been reproduced by a disease." in which you repeated the word bias. Overall, I think that your post is really interesting, especially since this is something we are living through and watching develop day by day, minute by minute. With that in mind, perhaps adding an "Updates" header at the end of your wiki would be a good idea, where you can discuss new information revealed and the relevance it has to your topic. Great job on the wiki page!
