Option 1

 * Clear Lake (California):
 * Article Evaluation:
 * The article is full of claims that are lacking citations. There are also some current citations that are contested. The Talk page indicates that previous versions of the article contain information not relevant to this article, but rather the county of Lake that contains Clear Lake. The Talk page also has several suggestions for content that should be included. :
 * Sources:
 * https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7141a3.htm?s_cid=mm7141a3_w
 * https://esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ecs2.4271:

Option 2

 * Clear Lake splittail:
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This article is very brief and only contains two references, with one citation being determined [vague]. There is nothing on the Talk page. The article is likely brief because there are very few sources for the species. :

Option 3

 * Bombus vosnesenskii
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This article was a course project from a student in Washington State. There are some statements that are more or less conjecture, and a few more statements that lack citations. Since the articles creation, there has been some notable research that I would add. Furthermore, the Parasites section goes into details that would be more appropriate in an article about the parasites, and should instead focus on how the parasites affect this bee.
