- The comparisons of Wikipedia to credible sources such as Encyclopedia Britannica and IBM stregthened the argument.
-The evidence of Siegenthaler not being completlly truthful in his article by missinterperting Wikipedia's founders comments.

In the Marijuna essay
- The argument of it not being sold to minors makes a good point on why it should be  sold.
- The adiciveness of marijuna compared to that of alchol and nicotene is a very crucial argument to this peice and heavily supports the writers purpose
- The health benefits of marijuna seems to outweigh the negatives as the writer conveys.

In Copperstown and the roids
-The begiining example is excellent in showing an example that many would be famillar to in order to relate it to baseball and steroids
- The refutation of the claim James makes that everyone will use steroids in the future is perfeect. Saying that that is not the current problem because not everyone does it now is a great argument for the steroid era players to not be able to get into the hall of fame.
