Option 1

 * Article title
 * Childhood obesity


 * Article Evaluation
 * It has a good basis of information on what obesity is and how it develops, but I believe there can be more detail about the actual pathways that allows for obesity to occur. For example, the physiological effects and the causes of childhood obesity can be edited and expanded more. I think there science behind childhood obesity can be explained better in this article.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Type 2 diabetes


 * Article Evaluation
 * There can be a significant portion added to the pathophysiology of this article as there are many sources that describe exactly what occurs in type 2 diabetes much in a more detailed fashion. There are also multiple ways to diagnose it which are not completely listed in the article as well. Prevention section also is lacking much detail and there could even be a future prevention section/promising treatments.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Inbreeding


 * Article Evaluation
 * Does a decent job of discussing the effects of both humans and animals however there is not enough detail of the medical aspect of what occurs due to inbreeding in humans along with the vast amount of diseases and abnormalities that can occur. Also, can help improve the article by using more secondary articles.

Option 4

 * Birth rate


 * Article Evaluation
 * Can add more content to factors affecting birth rate and also fixing some of the links that are on the blacklist. Does a good job of speaking of rates from different countries but can discuss other countries as well. Go into more detail about trends of birth rates as well.
