Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation consistently uses 'nslookup' as the sole example for DNS validation, with screenshots and references that appear to be from Windows Command Prompt. There are no examples or mentions of equivalent Linux/macOS tools (such as 'dig' or 'host'), nor are there instructions or screenshots for validating DNS from non-Windows environments. This presents a subtle Windows-first bias and omits guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Include equivalent DNS validation commands for Linux/macOS, such as 'dig <domain>' and 'host <domain>', alongside 'nslookup'.
  • Add screenshots or terminal output examples from Linux/macOS environments to demonstrate parity.
  • Explicitly mention that DNS validation can be performed from any OS, and provide cross-platform instructions.
  • Where possible, use neutral language (e.g., 'run a DNS query using your preferred tool, such as nslookup, dig, or host') rather than referencing only Windows tools.
  • Consider a table or note summarizing common DNS query tools across platforms.
