Global Warming Article: Step Six

Step Six: 
NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) and Enescot (talk) are heavily involved in editing the Wikipedia article on Global Warming. Click on their names to see their profiles. Then read their pages. Again. how does this information make you feel about the credibility and validity of information on Wikipedia.Justify your stance using concrete examples.

NewsandEventsGuy's user profile led me back to the talk page; however, from reading over it, the user seems really knowledgable about wikipedia and follows the guidelines. He encourages contributors to work through problems in a rational manner. In "Tricks for consensus in a heated environment", they encourage people to ask the other editor for permission to try to repeat back their own argument neutrally as possible. Enescot provides a lot of information on wikipedia and getting help. From their page, they seem very knowledgeable.   The fact that both editors are knowledgable in their field and actively participate adds to their credibility.
