Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

 * Cybercrime:
 * Article Evaluation:The article is very complete in terms of explaining what cybercrime is, different classifications of cybercrime, the inclusion of notable incidents that have occurred, and how computer crime can be combatted. Each section of the article explains the concept that is being addressed, including a definition or description, and what each topic may entail.
 * When reading the article, the article appears to be consistent throughout. Regardless of multiple contributors the language that is used allows for the article to take a neutral stance of which the topic is being described. The only part that stood out to me that could be considered bias was the section including notable incidents. Depending on whom you ask, the incidents that individuals think of relating to cybercrime is going to vary. Although the way it is written to me appears neutral, there is inherently some bias with the list.
 * The authors of the article have used numerous resources. At the bottom of the article all the references that have leveraged throughout the article have been completely outlined. The references vary, some of them are new resources, which presents bias, others are from textbooks and other research reports. Leveraging the variety of sources allows for a complete understanding to be outlined within the article.

Option 2

 * Cyber Resilience Act:
 * Article Evaluation:
 * Sources
 * Cyber Resilience Act:The Cyber Resilience Act is directly related to the act that was proposed by the European Commission regarding cybersecurity and cyber resiliency. The article outlines what the intended purpose and motivations of the Act were, how it would be implemented, and different criticism the Act has received.
 * Understanding that political acts often have biases, the way the article was written is overall neutral, however, does present some bias as well. The inclusion of the criticism section, although inclusive of numerous views, presents biases. Understanding that the critics are bias as it could impact things they are working on or whom they are working with, there are going to be non-neutral perspectives shared.
 * However, despite the biases that are presented in the article, each aspect that was discussed was supported by a citation. The citations are from numerous sources including other peer reviewed published sources, the European Commissions sites, as well as open source news reporting.

Option 3

 * Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012:
 * Article Evaluation:The Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 is directly related to the law that was approved in the Philippines to address legal issues involving cybersquatting, cybersex, child pornography, identity theft, and illegal access to data. The article begins by explaining the history of the proposal of the act, includes the provisions of the act, the reaction of those that live in the Philippines in response to the Act, the constitutionality of the Act, and the effects the Act has. This article presents a clear beginning to end understanding of the process in getting the law approved and the impact it has on the Philippines.
 * When reading the article, the article appears to be written neutrally. The inclusion of how the act was approved, but then suspended and further reviewed before approval again and then the addition inclusion of numerous peoples aspects of reaction to the different backgrounds presented a neutral stance throughout the article.
 * Whenever a new source was introduced the authors made sure to include the citations. The citations allowed for further investigation into the sources when needed and a more comprehensive picture of what information was pulled from what sources. The article included resources from peer reviewed published resources, as well as news reporting. The comprehensive inclusion of the different types of sources offers different view points.
