 * Youth Homelessness:
 * Article Evaluation:The article's content is relevant to the topic. Some sentences have information that can be rewritten with a less biased tone, and less generalization. Each claim does have a citation. Some of the citations are reliable, others are to news articles or blogs. One citation at the top for "Street children in Moscow: using and creating social capital" leads to an article about "The Finest Casinos in New York." This article does cover unhoused youths which is an underrepresented/misrepresented population. Looking at the Talk Page, this article was a part of another student's project and has yet to be updated since November 2022. It has only been worked on by a few people.::Youth homelessness

Option 2

 * Informal Housing:
 * Article Evaluation:The article's content is relevant to the topic. In general, the article is written in a neutral tone. Almost every claim has a citation, there are some claims which do not but lead to information that is all cited. Overall, the citations are reliable and the links all lead to PDF articles and a few other websites. The article covers a type of housing that is underrepresented. The article only has two sections, an unlabeled overview and a brief section on Informal Housing in Developing Countries. This would be a good place to add other countries (such as the US) and different forms of informal housing. Nothing is happening on the talk page other than an invitation to "US Housing Edit-a-thon" which happened in 2020. Squatting is a high importance mentioned in this topic.::Informal housing

Option 3

 * Manufactured Housing:
 * Article Evaluation:This article's content is relevant to the topic. This article is written neutrally. Not every claim has a citation (most don't), to improve this article there needs to be added citations to reliable sources. This means adding information from reliable sources and rechecking all of the information already written here. The talk page was very active 2 years ago about merging this article with Prefabricated Home and/or Mobile Home articles. This was let go however due to it not being discussed in 2 years and not previously coming to a consensus. A lot of the links in the references go to nothing. There would need to be a total re-do of citations and sources, as it is a fairly visited Wikipedia page.
