Fact-checking student work

Hi Mossbeach. Welcome to Wikipedia. Unfortunately, the reason I'm here is that a few weeks ago, one of your students made some edits to the article on Breastfeeding that are entirely unsupported by the sources they cited: example 1, and example 2.

There are very few regular volunteers on women's health issues at Wikipedia and we don't have the energy to check everything. I just got around to it today and I'm horrified that this junk didn't get removed sooner. We need instructors to put their own processes into place to make sure that if students add misinformation to Wikipedia, it gets promptly detected and removed without adding to the burden of volunteers. I'd appreciate it if you could review your course's quality control processes. Best regards, Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 06:59, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
