Option 1

 * Article title
 * Comfort women


 * Article Evaluation
 * This is a very well-developed article. The content covered almost every aspects of the topic on comfort women. It is written in a neutral tone. In terms of the citation, almost every claim has a citation, the citations that I tested all work very well, these are every reliable sources. While the comfort women are being recognized today, I believe this group of people is still an underrepresented population. Therefore, this article does tackle Wikipedia's equity gap.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * yobikō


 * Article Evaluation
 * yobiko is part of the Japanese educational system. This article is neutrally written and contains relevant contents, however, there should be more sections added to reflect social expectations and norms on this subject. Not every claim has a citation and not all citations reliable. There is also a problem with the reference section with the author repeated wrote the same citation for three times. The reference section also lacks external links to the sources, therefore it's difficult to consider if the citation is reliable.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Sex trafficking in Japan


 * Article Evaluation
 * The topic of sex trafficking is a well recognized crime in Japanese society. The content of the article is relevant to the topic, however, certain sections lack informations and need further editing. The tone of the article is pretty neutral, but not every claim has a citation. Citations that's used in the article are a little bit repetitive. From what I tested, most citations work well and are from reliable sources.
