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
 * Reese Witherspoon


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article contains many relevant pieces of information to the actress. Most of the citations come from either news sources, such as the New York Times, or pop culture-related media. If possible, I believe there could be more acclaimed or sources that account for resources for this type of info. The article could also cite the beginning overall info more often, barely supporting its opening claims. Additionally, Wikipedia's wealth gaps are mentioned when Witherspoon is said to have been sexually assaulted in the past, and came forward about.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Domain of a function


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article contains pretty accurate info on the subject at hand, domain of a function. The article gathers information from scholarly sources such as University of Pennsylvania, and also sources like Wolfram. These sources are referenced after many statements have ended. No Wikipedia wealth gaps are mentioned that I could find. The writing seems to be pretty neutral. The only suggestion I would make is to gather some more information with the help of more scholarly sources.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Trigonometry


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article goes over the essentials of trigonometric theory and its basic applications. With the mentions of trig identities, as well as tactics to remember them. The article doesn't mention any Wikipedia wealth gaps. There were many great sources such as textbooks that give helpful information on the topic. One way this could be a better article is if it was expanded to include or just introduce topics in applications of trigonometry.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Vegetarian hot dog


 * Article Evaluation
 * The content of this article goes over the basic components of a vegetarian hot dog, and how it usually consists of a plant-based protein like soy. There were no Wikipedia wealth gaps that I found. I think the article could use more section like how to prepare certain hot dogs, as well as different brands that offer this type of hot dog.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * 30 Rock (season 1)


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article goes over the accomplishments and struggles the first season of the show faced. I didn't find any Wikipedia wealth gaps, but I found a lot of insightful info on the topic. Much of the first section doesn't have much referenced material, and needs more sources to back up that info, if not, it should be discarded. Most of the citations seem to come from the most reliable sources there are available, but there could be less info from pop-culture editorials like Entertainment Weekly.
