Option 1

 * Article title
 * Treaty of Saint Petersburg (1875)


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is very brief and without any subsections. While it is neutrally written, there is neither breadth nor depth and contains only the briefest overview. There is nothing on the talk page for the article, and is rated "Start-class, mid-importance" for the Russian history and Japan project pages, making it a promising article. There is also much more on the topic on the Russian wikipedia page, meaning I can draw from some of those sources to help.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Kuril Trade


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article does not exist yet, but I believe there are enough sources to create a page from scratch about the Kuril Trade between Russia and Japan.
