Option 1

 * Article title: Tarana Burke
 * Article Evaluation
 * Relevancy:
 * The article is relevant to the Tarana Burke. It discusses her childhood and why she decided to become an activist. It then moves onto her career and the specific moments in her life.
 * Neutrality:
 * For the most part, the article seems fairly neutral. I am not sure if saying that the MeToo movement was "appropriated" by Milano is neutral. I read that as a little bit bias.
 * Citations:
 * There are a few places missing citations, primarily toward the end of the article and the section of the awards that she has received.
 * The citations seem kind of messy. They aren't all in the same format. Most are from magazines and news articles about her.
 * Equity Gaps:
 * The article does cover one of Wikipedia's equity gaps.
 * Talk Page:
 * It doesn't seem that anyone has worked on this page since 2018. The issues on the talk page have all been addressed. The biggest concern was about if the article could be translated to German.

Option 2

 * Article title: Charlene Carruthers
 * Article Evaluation
 * My main complaint about this article is that there is very little information and I don't like that there is no picture of Charlene. There is a picture if you look at the snippet of wikipedia through google but not on the actual article.
 * Relevancy:
 * There is not a lot of information about Charlene Carruthers in the article. That could be because there is not a lot of information about her available in general. There are parts of the article, specifically the BYP100, that veer away from being about her and more about that organization. Those moments do help to understand who she is and her activism but they are not about her specifically, so I'm not sure I would say that they are completely relevant. I do like that it mentions the published work that she has.
 * Neutrality:
 * The article seems neutral.
 * Citations:
 * Each of the claims has citations attached to it, except the statement that she attributes her political awakening to being in South Africa when she is 18.
 * The citations are again mostly news articles and magazines. There is a tweet used a citation and a few interviews that have been done with her.
 * Equity gap:
 * This article does address one of the equity gaps.
 * Talk page:
 * The only thing on the talk page is a modification of the external links and that was done in 2017/2018.

Option 3

 * Article title: Farah Tanis
 * Article Evaluation
 * From the quick google search I did of Farah and the small amount of information available from the article, she has done a lot of incredible work and her page should be more developed. I also don't like that there is no picture of her on her wikipedia page.
 * Relevancy:
 * There isn't much information available, but it does all relate to Farah and her activist work.
 * Neutrality:
 * Everything looks neutral.
 * Citations:
 * Each claim has a citation.
 * This article has a few books as citations along with news articles.
 * Equity gap:
 * This page does address the equity gap.
 * Talk page:
 * There are no conversations going on in the talk page.
