 * Article title:
 * Lou Fant


 * Article Evaluation
 * "Fant published nine books, and contributed to eight films promoting use of sign language. His Ameslan: An Introduction to American Sign Language (1972) was the first book designed to teach ASL as a unique language rather than as a mere lexicon of signs."
 * Under the publications section the sentences above indicates the need for a citation. The comment states Fant has nine published works, but I have found a site with ten. It would be ideal to create a chart listing all of his publications similar to the one in the Filmography section.
 * The article does not mention the significance of Fant's contribution to the Deaf community and interpreting community. Adding content supported by peer-reviewed articles could touch on addressing the equity gap for Wikipedia.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf


 * Article Evaluation
 * Lead section needs to be reworked to read with better flow. Particular focus needs to be on the last four sentences due to the fact that three of them have the word also in them as if each sentence is the last one in the paragraph.
