Website Credibility

I think first and foremost a credibile website will have publishing dates and resources on where all the information on the page came from. Determine if the content on the page is fact or opinion, is there a lot of advertising on the page, and does it post the name of the institution or organization that has created this page.

The Martin Luther King website has an inappropriate quote that if it was for educational purposes I don't believe that would be on there. Also, the layout of the website does not look credible, it looked as if someone off the street put it together.

Dihydrogen website is asking for money and also has advertisement for babelfish, this obviously is not a very credible source.
