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
 * Workplace Politics


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article needs more information on workplace politics that is backed up by more reliable sources.
 * The content is relevant to the topic.
 * The article is not written neutrally. While it does contain information about office politics, the way the article is written reads more like a school essay than a Wikipedia article. Almost all of the article is original research with little to no reliable sources.
 * Not every claim has a citation. In the beginning, there are many parts that say "citation needed" or "clarification needed."
 * The citations are not reliable. Just about every citation is from an informal website, and some of the citations do not work.
 * The article does not tackle any equity gaps.
 * The talk page has a decent amount of activity, but the more detailed comments on the talk page are old comments from the 2000s.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Partition (politics) - I am not super interested in editing this article.


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article needs to be more neutral, and needs more information on partitions, such as the history of partitions (in the history section, it could explain some of the partitions in the examples list in a more detailed manner), and the purpose of partitions.
 * The content is relevant to the topic.
 * The article attempts to write neutrally by having an 'arguments for' and 'arguments against' section, but this actually makes the article less neutral because both of these sections are original research. One of the sources used for both of these sections is not a reliable source; it is a pdf that does not come from any specific website/secondary source.
 * Not every claim has a citation.
 * Citations are not reliable. Many of the citations come from biased sources/sites, and some citations do not work.
 * The article briefly mentions the partitions of some poc geographic regions/countries.
 * The talk page has a lot of detailed comments, but all of them are from 2007.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Diversity (politics) - This is an article I'm very interested in.


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article needs more information on how different marginalized groups and minorities are represented in different countries' political media. The article also needs more of a focus on political diversity, since some of the sections are not specifically related to politics, but talk more about workplace diversity and educational diversity.
 * Content is fairly relevant to the topic. Although, the business and workplace section should either have more information relating to politics or be taken away altogether since it is not related to politics.
 * The article is fairly neutral.
 * Most claims at the beginning have a citation. Towards the end of the article, many of the claims do not have a citation.
 * The citations are not reliable. Three of the citations are from random websites. One of the citations does not work. And one of the citations is another Wikipedia article. Wikipedia articles should never be used as citations for other Wikipedia articles.
 * The entire article focuses on political diversity of different marginalized groups.
 * The talk page is very detailed, but most comments are from 2008.
