Option 1

 * Article title
 * Social Determinants of Health in Poverty


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article has a variety of relevant issues that it talks about in relation to the overall of idea of social determinants of health in poverty -- it discusses these aspects of the issue without removing importance from the overall idea in place. The text is neutral and there is a citation among every statement to ensure credibility of the information. The citations are reliable, and work properly. The only critique I have is that the organization of the headings and information can be edited to be more concise and organized.

 * Article title
 * Social Determinants of Health


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is more of a general overview of the social determinants of health, and does not go into detail of the different risk factors. Rather, it breaks down SDH as a discipline, and explores it in terms of different approaches and perspectives of the issue. I think this article lacks a solid, unifying factor that helps information flow from section to section. The information is generally relevant and neutral, but can be constructed to be more effective with different sources that are not specific to certain areas (for example, Canada).

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Health Policy


 * Article Evaluation
 * Similar to the 'Social Determinants of Health' article, the Health Policy article gives an overall idea of what health policy is, but it does not give examples of health policies or programs such as the ACA/Medicare/Medicaid. The information in the article is related to a general understanding of what health policy is, but I think the article can benefit from having an examples section that explores the ACA or how health policy affects the population. I also think it can benefit from having more peer reviewed sources to draw information from.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Screening (medicine)


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is also a general overview of what screening in medicine is. It is consistent in terms of Wikipedia's guidelines, but can improve in its Examples section by expanding explanations on the different kinds of examples as well as adding a section for screening for social determinants of health.
