Wikiality Criterion D

For this criterion, our task was to officially correct the mistake we had found using our reliable sources. In order to do this, we must use the school login and password that is provided to us under a strict privacy policy.
Once we have signed the agreement sheet, we proceed to altering the information on the Wikipedia page. Our page was under the name 'War in Darfur', and below is the accuracy we have corrected:

"In March 2005, the UN's Emergency Relief Coordinator Jan Egeland estimated that 10,000 were dying each month excluding deaths due to ethnic violence.[76] An estimated 2.7 million people had at that time been displaced from their homes, mostly seeking refuge in camps in Darfur's major towns.[77] Two hundred thousand had fled to neighboring Chad. Reports of violent deaths compiled by the UN indicate between 6,000 and 7,000 fatalities from 2004 to 2007.[78]"
The change has been labelled in bold, and the source that we have got our information from is at [77]:
