Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

 * Article title - Foodborne Illness:
 * Article Evaluation - very thorough and covers a wide range of topics. I think we could add more to the section on preventative measures. We could possibly add short descriptions to some of the other viruses listed, like the description that has already been added for Hepatitis A:
 * Sources - Center for Disease Control, ScienceDirect, International Journal of Food Microbiology:

Option 2

 * Article title - Water Contamination:
 * Article Evaluation - The article is very broad. The section on microbial contamination is rather short, and I think we could add a good chunk to this article! Specifically talking about how microbes invade the water supply and touching more on the effects. I think finding the necessary research will be fairly easy in comparison to other topics under consideration.:
 * Sources - National Center for Biotechnology Information, CDC, ScienceDirect:

Option 3

 * Article title - Bioterrorism:
 * Article Evaluation - Very extensive; I worry that there wouldn't be much for us to add that is relevant to the rest of the article. I think the topic would be unique and fascinating, but would be hard to research and consolidate information.:
 * Sources - Chemical and Biological Warfare: A Comprehensive Survey for the Concerned Citizen; Medical News Today; National Center for Biotechnology Information:

Option 4

 * Article title - Microorganism:
 * Article Evaluation - Very broad, and I think if we chose to do a project on water pollution, we could write an entire section. I also think a project about fermentation might be interesting, and would also give us a big chunk to add to the article.:
 * Sources - National Center for Biotechnology Information, CDC, ScienceDirect:

Option 5

 * Article title - Greenhouse gas emissions from wetlands:
 * Article Evaluation - I stumbled across a hotlink for this article, and I think this topic could be SO interesting to present on! The article is well-rounded, but could use an area that discusses potential solutions. I think this would be exciting to research because wetlands are such a big part of our state and the conversations happening in our university.:
