Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

 * Womxn (Start class, mid-importance)
 * The article is relevant to the idea of feminism and states the term attempts to use an intersectional analysis to promote inclusivity to the alternative of women.
 * I think for the most part the article is written neutrally, but could expand both viewpoints behind using the term womxn. Perhaps there could be sources from proponents and opponents of the term in the article to share the definition and importance
 * I think each claim and sentence has a citation. There are a few book inclusions; however, there are a few articles that are from websites that may not be as reliable. I would suggest finding some more scientific journals to explain the definition of womxn.
 * I think the article does attempt to address a Wikipedia equity gaps because it provides an alternative term to women to offer inclusivity of all types of people

Option 2

 * Mothers' rights (Start class, high-importance)
 * This article is relevant to the idea of feminism because it discusses women (mothers') rights and issues regarding their rights in the United States. However, I think it lacks supporting evidence to support the definition of mothers rights
 * I think this article is written neutrally for the most part, providing the definition and explaining some issues mother are having with in the United States. However, I feel it picks out certain broad mother rights topics when there could be a more in depth history of the subject
 * Each claim does not have a citation and Wikipedia points this out in the article. For example, definition lacks verification of where the information was found.
 * I do not think the article currently attempts to completely address Wikipedia equity gaps because it solely talks about mothers' rights in the United States. To address equality issues I suggest finding evidence from across the world or finding commonalities amongst broader parts around the world.

Option 3

 * Mighty girl effect
 * This article is relevant to the idea of feminism because it starts to pick apart the ideas of gender inequality. It explains the idea behind a father having a daughter and having more realization of gender inequality compared to having a son.
 * I do not think this article is completely written neutrally. I think it does a decent job providing resources that explain the effect and research demonstrating the effect. However, the article uses the term "we conclude" without sharing more than one research article to demonstrate this effect.
 * Each article has a citation and I think has several reputable sources, yet could possibly share more information from 33333
 * I think the article starts to attempt in addressing Wikipedia equity gaps though giving a possible idea behind groups of people not understanding feminism and attempts in sharing this affect in its importance to address equality of all people. I would suggest possibly adding more research behind the effect and making it more neutral while also providing more detailed description of fathers differing viewpoints when they have a first born school aged daughter.

Option 4

 * Women Against Feminism (Start class, mid-importance)
 * This article is relevant to the topic of feminism because it shares a movement against feminism movement and shares some proponents and opponents of each.
 * I think this article is written pretty neutrally. It attempts to share the criticism and support behind each movement; however, I think it lacks some clarity in explicitly explaining both parts.
 * The article provides several citations but not from many scholarly articles. For example, it shares the movement started from Tumblr and cited the tumblr post as well as twitter posts. Each claim does have a citation.
 * I think the article attempts to address Wikipedias equity gaps because it attempts to explain a movement not actively portrayed or accepted in general. It attempts to bring both sides of viewpoint to address how to including everybody in the discussion of equity. However, I think it lacks clarity in the history and leading sections to accurately describe the women against feminism movement in response to the feminist movement.
 * Possible additive source: Women against feminism : an examination of feminist social movements and anti-feminist countermovements. (From GVSU Gender Studies Data Base)

Option 5

 * Gender crime (Stub class, mid-importance)
 * This article is relevant to the topic of feminism because it explains an idea of inequality amongst gender and resulting violence. Therefore, it is important to address in feminist talk.
 * I think this article is written pretty neutrally. It attempts to explain the definition of gender crime as well as examples of fender crime. I think more detail and example description needs to be added to understand the meaning of gender crime.
 * The article provides several resources, with a few scholarly articles. However there are some missing citations throughout the article like the definition of gender crime has no original source.
 * I believe the article does attempt to address Wikipedias equity gap because it shows an issue in society that negatively affects groups of people. However I think it lacks prevalence and details to understand the importance and relevance of gender crime across the world.
 * Possible additive source DOI: 10.1177/1557085105282899
