Option 1

 * Article title
 * Identity Politics
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article has plenty of information to work with. One of the needed improvements listed in the Talk section discusses how the article reads more like an argumentative essay than from a neutral-bias viewpoint. Additionally, the subsection "gender" offers a short general overview on the topic that needs to be further developed. For example, I would merge "Women's Identity Politics in the United States" under the more general "Gender" topic.

 * Option 2
 * Article title
 * Feminist foreign policy
 * Feminist foreign policy


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is well written and flows well. It is not difficult to follow where the author of the article is heading From section to section, the article covers feminist foreign policy across multiple nations. The article would benefit from sources covering feminist foreign policy from other countries, such as Asia.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Gender Inequality Index


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article shows a comprehensive yet succinct summary on the subject. For more complex calculations/ statistics, there is a section at the end that has more information. The breakdown of the sections is also well organized. There are some sections, like "Mix Indices" that can be elaborated further so that the reader does not have to guess what it means.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Feminist sociology


 * Article Evaluation
 * The page does cover a lot of information and branches off into relevant adjacent topics. However, the page reads more like an argumentative essay than an encyclopedia entry. Additionally, there are many statements that are unsupported by any citations. Overall, this page would require a refinement of the wording and more links to terms that most people would not understand initially.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * Violence Against Women


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is very comprehensive. It covers the topic in almost too-much detail for an encyclopedia entry. Some recommendations would be to edit down the content to make the foundational ideas of the article more prominent and easier to find. Additionally, the end of the article could benefit from more images to break up the wall of paragraphs.
