Article Selection
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
 * Amyl nitrite


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article has a clear and concise introduction and a good start with the subheadings. However, the article can be expanded more with additional detail under each subheading. For example, expanding upon the uses or the toxicity of the compound. The article has a warning at the top that additional sources are needed to improve the article and verify its information. The talk page has not been updated in some time, but there seemed to be many questions and confusion surrounding the compound. Reliable sources should help clear up confusion and add verification to the article.


 * Sources
 * Sources can be obtained from SciFinder and ACS journals.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Glycolonitrile


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is very basic and does not contain much information about glycolonitrile. Expansion on its history, toxicity, mechanisms, etc, could all use improvement. It's rated as a start-class and of low-importance, but it may be interesting to explore more about glycolonitrile in outer space and its possible significance/uses as briefly mentioned in the introductory paragraph. The talk page has very limited discussions as well.


 * Sources
 * Sources can be obtained from SciFinder and ACS journals.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Forensic toxicology


 * Article Evaluation
 * I think this article is off to a great start but needs attention when it comes to properly citing reliable sources. Multiple paragraphs were not properly cited or cited at all. I think there is room for updated information and additional information to be added in areas such as "detection".
