Option 1

 * Article title

 * Article Evaluation
 * Article is clear and informative however it lacks an Armenian feminist literature section which could be an informative addition. It can also be titled as women in Armenian literature.

Option 2

 * Article title

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Armenian Cinema


 * Article Evaluation
 * Although there is a recent director section that lists famous Armenian directors (more recent), they are not included in the history subsection of the article. It could benefit to include their contributions in the history section since it is quite limited in the information it provides.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Armenian Architecture


 * Article Evaluation
 * I would think it beneficial to potentially add to the devastation of Armenian architecture sub-section. Specifically looking to the destruction of Armenian churches in Artsakh, as well as AZ claims that Armenian churches were "made" Armenian rather than established as such (this would be deemed erasure). Also found an interesting article on an attempt at revival.
 * It could also use some more information in the Armenian architecture in the diaspora section, including some new constructions in large diasporas (ie Burbank Armenian Church).
 * It could also use some more information in the Armenian architecture in the diaspora section, including some new constructions in large diasporas (ie Burbank Armenian Church).

Option 5
