Option 1

 * Article title
 * Rwandan genocide
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is quite detailed and has many aspects to it. It has multiple citations and seems neutral in its tone. What needs to be developed here is the topic of propaganda. I think I would like to focus on creating section on propaganda as the article does touch on many aspects of propaganda throughout but does not have an individual one. I think an individual one with varieties of propaganda before, during and after the Genocide would be a good addition.
 * Souces

 * https://www.womensmediacenter.com/women-under-siege/conflicts/rwanda
 * https://www.womensmediacenter.com/women-under-siege/conflicts/rwanda

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Rape during the Rwandan genocide
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article actually has many details and citations and seems to collect information from trustworthy and reliable resources. What I find useful here is the section of propaganda regarding women that I would like to further develop and enhance and especially touch on the various aspects in terms of the timeline of the Genocide itself.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Radio Rwanda
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is actually very underdeveloped and has little citations. I think that the radio itself was quite an important facet of propaganda thus, it would be nice to develop this article and further the role of radio in Genocide, violence and fear. I need to cite more sources and develop a timeline of the radio and how it has changed over time. Otherwise, the article seems reliable and has a neutral tone.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Kangura
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article, although with neutral and good subsections, is not detailed enough and does not have enough sources that are cites. It can use more sources and a development of its subsections. What I find useful about the article is that it talks about the role of propaganda leading up to the Rwandan Genocide, which is often an overlooked aspect of it.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * Phrenology
 * Article Evaluation
 * Although not directly linked to what I want to focus on, Phrenology was a major aspect that influenced propaganda and eventually led to animosities between Hutus and Tutsis. The article is very well-developed and has many trustworthy resources. I would like to, however, focus on a Rwandan Genocide section, discussing how phrenology affected propaganda and how it was itself a form of propaganda. I would then like to discuss how all this led to the Genocide itself. Thus, I think I could contribute to the article in a rather large subsection.
