Option 1

 * Article title
 * Stephanorhinus
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article broadly talks about the genus Stephanorinus, without giving a lot of details about the single species. It also lacks maps of past distributions or references more recent than 2012. It could use more information about the interaction with early Homo or H. sapiens, causes of extinction, ecology.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Eemian
 * Article Evaluation
 * The page mainly focuses on the climate, definition and sea level changes of the last interglacial. It's well written and with good sources, but given the importance of the topic and its implications as the closest comparable period to the Holocene I think much could be added to it. I think it could be worth adding a section on the biomes and their distributions, faunal assemblages, glacial/interglacial refugia and recolonization, differences with the Holocene, human migrations dynamics in this period.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Megafauna
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is complete and well written regarding the strictly "faunal" aspect, but lacks in describing both the known effect of megafauna as driver of vegetation dynamics and the possible effects of megafaunal extinctions (present and past) on vegetation at landscape level. Adding a subsection in the "consequences of megafaunal depletion" would fill this gap.
