Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias primarily by using Windows command prompt syntax (C:\>) in all DNS resolution examples and referencing Windows tools (nslookup, dig) from a Windows shell. There are no explicit Linux shell examples, and the instructions for running DNS queries assume a Windows environment, even though the tools used (dig, nslookup) are available on Linux as well.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parallel Linux shell examples (e.g., using $ prompt and Linux command syntax) alongside Windows examples for DNS queries.
  • Explicitly mention that tools like dig and nslookup are available on both Windows and Linux, and show example commands for both platforms.
  • When instructing users to open a command prompt, clarify that this can be either Windows Command Prompt, PowerShell, or a Linux terminal.
  • Include screenshots or output samples from both Windows and Linux environments where relevant.
  • Avoid using only Windows-style paths and prompts (C:\>) in code blocks; use a neutral or dual-platform approach.
