Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns before or instead of Linux equivalents. For example, the 'Client Network Configuration' link points to a Windows-specific page, and there are no Linux-specific client configuration instructions. Additionally, while there are some Linux references (e.g., encrypted connections), there are no explicit Linux command-line or configuration examples, and Windows terminology is used by default.
Recommendations:
  • Provide Linux-specific client configuration guidance and examples, such as how to configure client network settings on Linux.
  • Include Linux command-line examples (e.g., using sqlcmd or mssql-tools on Linux) alongside or before Windows examples.
  • When referencing configuration utilities or files, clarify the Linux equivalents and provide sample commands or file snippets.
  • Ensure that links and references are balanced between Windows and Linux, or provide parallel links for both platforms.
  • Review terminology to avoid defaulting to Windows-centric language (e.g., 'host computer' instead of 'host system').
