Trump administration family separation policy

[edit]

Hi, I saw that you made edits to this article. Be aware that this article is held under sanctions, which means that it's under far more scrutiny than the average article. What this means is that content needs to be written as neutrally as possible and use the strongest possible sourcing. I've reverted this for the time being, as there are some concerns with the sourcing.

One of the two sources is this journal article, which is a study. Studies should generally be avoided unless they're accompanied with a secondary source that reviews the study or comments upon the specific claim that is being stated. The reason for this is that studies are primary sources for any of the claims and research conducted by their authors. The publishers don't provide any commentary or in-depth verification, as they only check to ensure that the study doesn't have any glaring errors that would invalidate it immediately. Study findings also tend to be only true for the specific people or subjects that were studied. For example, study findings may be different depending on who is chosen and what venues the researchers choose to go through, as well as the area of the country and several other factors. Aside from that, there's also the issue of why a specific study should be highlighted over another. For example, someone could ask why one study was chosen as opposed to something that studied a similar topic or had different results.

The Center for American Progress is also problematic since it is socially liberal and centrist, and has a specific viewpoint on Trump. We'd be hard pressed to find a center or research facility that is 100% neutral, but it gets more tricky when a facility is openly described as having a specific viewpoint. The article offhand doesn't seem to be a study per se, not in the same way that the other one is, but the question of bias and original research could still be voiced. It's not necessarily the best source to use on its own, is what I'm getting at. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 22:21, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
