Option 2

 * I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream
 * Article Evaluation
 * Start class, 45 completeness score, 1643 views/day. Part of the Novel and Sci-Fi projects and rated mid-importance. This article seems decently fleshed out but has a notice saying it need verifiable sources added.

Option 4

 * Lilith's Brood
 * Article Evaluation
 * Part of four projects, rated C-class, both mid and low importance. This seems decently fleshed out but needs better citations. If I were to work on this, I would want to explore whether mentioning "Octavia's Brood" and the philosophies emerging from this series would be topical enough for Wikipedia.
 * I would also like to add better citations, and split sections into paragraphs that will make them much easier to read.

Option 5

 * The Calculating Stars
 * Article Evaluation
 * Projects: Novels and Science Fiction, start-class, low importance. This seems like a promising article - it's currently somewhat sparse, could use a good introduction and more sections. The article doesn't currently mention anything about the gender and racial issues central to the plot. Almost no activity in talk, just one note on a spelling error.
