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
 * Japan Family Planning Association


 * Article Evaluation
 * Very short, not a lot of content
 * Information might be slightly outdated, or at least not up to date, as all sources are from 2011 and earlier.


 * Sources
 * All the sources except [1] and [3] are either missing a url, or pointing to an article that has been removed or does not exist anymore. Basically, 4 of the 6 sources are not being linked properly.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Birth control in Japan


 * Article Evaluation
 * Very short with limited coverage of a topic I'm sure there is more information about


 * Sources
 * Three sources, all of which are still accessible.
 * Source [1] is a newspaper article though, so this might not be a high-quality source.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Miai


 * Article Evaluation
 * Long and content heavy article, but...
 * The article is flagged as having multiple issues: (1) it "needs additional citations for verification", and (2) it "is written like a personal reflection, personal essay, or argumentative essay that states a Wikipedia editor's personal feelings or presents an original argument about a topic".


 * Sources
 * Quite a lot of sources (21), with a fairly even distribution of papers and news articles being cited.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Honne and tatemae


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is flagged as having multiple issues: (1) it "needs additional citations for verification", and (2) it "possibly contains original research".


 * Sources
 * All sources are incorrectly cited and should be verified and updated to correct format.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * Giri (Japanese)


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is flagged as having an issue: it "needs additional citations for verification".


 * Sources
 * Most of the current sources seem fine. The main problem is that several claims in the article are written without having any sources or citations connected to them.
