Option 1

 * Article title
 * Luisa Capetillo
 * Article Evaluation
 * Luisa Capetillo was an important figure in Puerto Rican history for her fight for worker's rights and women's right. Wikiproject's have categorized this article as one of mid to low importance; however, I disagree. I feel like this article lacks details in what she supported specifically and the ideas she shared in her own works. It feels like an unjust summary to the legacy she has left behind. I feel like this article also glosses over the historical context of Luisa Capetillo's life.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Contraceptive trials in Puerto Rico
 * Article Evaluation
 * The beginning of this article is extremely repetitive. There is no doubt that it is an important article; however, it currently feels like it is a story being told from the American perspective rather than the Puerto Rican. They mention important figures, like Margaret Sanger but they do not mention her use of eugenics ideology to push forward the birth control movement. The organization of the article also seems to make little sense since it starts talking about the actual trials very far ahead in the article, you have to scroll to finally get to that information. It also seems to lack focus on the impact these trials had on Puerto Rican women.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Sila María Calderón
 * Article Evaluation
 * As the first female governor of Puerto Rico, she is an incredibly important figure, yet her article lacks substance. It holds little to no information about her actual time as governor and her foundation. It doesn't speak about her policies at all. She does a lot of good work for the Puerto Rican population with her non-profit, yet there is no information on this.
