Option 1

 * Article title
 * Closeted


 * Article Evaluation
 * I would like to provide some examples of closeting in the entertainment industry (closeting of members of Westlife and of Colten Haynes are two immediate example), as it is mentioned in the article but no examples are given. I would also like to provide some statistics about the effects that being closeted has. Some of the article also has citations needed that I would like to fill in.


 * Sources
 * https://www.huffpost.com/entry/colton-haynes-rough-night_n_59400b32e4b0b13f2c6e278e - interview with Colton Haynes discussing how he was closeted by his management
 * https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/news/i-was-told-my-career-would-collapse-if-i-came-out-says-ricky-martin-1931644.html - Ricky Martin on coming out
 * https://www.history.com/news/hollywood-lmarriages-gay-stars-lgbt - discusses more in depth the lavender marriages mentioned in the original article

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Biphobia


 * Article Evaluation
 * There are several parts on here that say that citations are needed that I would like to fill in.


 * Sources
 * Carroll Smith-Rosenberg, “The Female World of Love and Ritual: Relations between Women in Nineteenth-Century America,” The University of Chicago Press Journals 1, no. 1 (Autumn 1975): 1-29 - addresses the idea of situational homosexuality in sex-segregated areas which needed a citation

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Ana Kokkinos


 * Article Evaluation
 * When describing her films, it is difficult to immediately tell that they deal with LGBTQ topics, so I would provide a more detailed description that tells the reader that they are indeed about these forms of identity. Her background is also more extensive than what is provided (does not go in depth about what her previous career as a lawyer was) so I would provide a bit more detail about her early life. There is also limited mention of the awards that she has won for her films, so I would include those in the page.
