* I selected the topic of gospel music to compare using wikipedia and britannica. Wikipedia provided more information about this genre of music. Wikipedia provided the history of cultures and time periods of its origination whereas Britannica provided names of people most commonly associated with gospel music. Information in wikipedia is more useful for research and the numerous hyperlinks give greater explanations for the topics being listed. Wikipedia maintains current updates and changes to this style of music. As history changes, wikipedia changes. Simple English in wikipedia gave a short definition of the topic.
* Resources and information in britannica is mainly historical in content. Britannica includes very little information about current changes that occur in modern gospel music such as praise and worship or contemporary gospel music. Information in britannica is not updated.
Wikipedia is user friendly with regular updates.
ReplyDeleteBritannica does not have enough current information.
