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
 * Media linguistics


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is well-written and has the base for a strong article. The sources are strong and credible, providing neutral and accurate information. However, each claim stated in the article does not have a citation. There is one specific instance where a citation is requested. There are multiple other areas where more citations would be helpful and improve the strength of the article. This does not cover one of Wikipedia's equity gaps and cover underrepresented groups or misrepresented populations. There is currently no conversation or communication on the article's talk page. It has been unedited for a while now.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Political linguistics


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article does not currently exist, so there is not much content to evaluate. However, I strongly believe this is a valid and worthwhile topic to explore further. Politics is highly dependent on speech and choosing words carefully. The idea of political linguistics is developing and there is sufficient research to begin an article about it.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Auditory phonetics


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is much more developed than media linguistics. However, it is also a topic I know more about, so it may be easier to write about. The article is relevant and discusses the topic at hand. It is unbiased and there are no opinion statements. There are a number of sources, but I believe that the content could be better cited. Some of the information does not have specific citations but should. The talk page for this article is much more detailed. There are conversations dating back to 2005 where Wiki editors are discussing the validity and importance of the article. It would be helpful to post and learn from these knowledgeable folks.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Articulatory phonology


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is similar to media linguistics because it is not very developed. However, this is another topic that I have a base understanding of, due to course work. The article is definitely relevant and covers the topic well. Opinions or bias are not visible. The sources and citations for this article are extremely well done. There are tons of strong sources and every single idea has a citation. When improving the article I will definitely read through these sources first. There might be enough information in these to polish the article much more. The talk page discusses an instance of plagiarism in the article but nothing else.
