Option 1

 * Article title
 * Ancient Egyptian Architecture


 * Article Evaluation
 * We have not mentioned many things about Ancient Egyptian Architecture in our course but there are many things that I can pick out from the article that need to be added. Obelisks seem to have an impact on other forms of architecture and they are not listed within the article. Also the pyramids were very influential but they only have the Giza pyramids mentioned in the article. These are two things that I could expand upon in the article that have an importance in the architectural history standpoint. The beginning section needs a little bit of continuity in order to express the topics in the article a little bit easier. The rest of the sections are well done, there are just a few changes that I can make that will have a great impact on the coverage of the article.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Japanese Architecture


 * Article Evaluation
 * Under the title 'Meiji, Taishō, and early Shōwa periods' there is not a section for Modern Japanese Architecture. I would like to add a new section talking about this new style of architecture that was influenced by the introduction of western contact. I could also add more to the section about the overview of the Japanese features in talking about the wood interlocking joints and how they are significant to this traditional style. The other sections seem to outline the topics very well, I would like to contribute some more important information to this cite.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Acropolis of Athens


 * Article Evaluation
 * There are many sections of this article that are finished and seem to have been ongoing revisions but the cultural significance of the location is lacking. That section encompasses the influence through adding a link to the classical revival page. Information on the impact of this location should be expanded upon along with the ongoing effort to restore the cite.
