Option 1

 * Thin-Skinned Deformation
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article has a decent foundation to conduct research off of. It consists of basic information on Fold Thrust Velds and the difference between thick-skin deformation and thin-skinned. It states the type of faults and rocks associated with this specific deformation.
 * More information and examples could be included on what thin-skinned deformation does to the landscape. I find this to be an interesting topic to expand due to my interest in fold-thrust belts.

Option 2

 * Chile Fracture Zone
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article consists of one paragraph with no sources attached. It states the type of fault, location of fault, zone, and zone direction. Other than that, there is little to no information.
 * There is plenty of room to expand on the topic and explain what is happening in the Chile Fracture Zone. Photos and tables can easily be added to expand this wikipedia page.

 * Not a lot of research has been exactly done on this area, but there should be plenty I could add to the page. Hopefully more research will come soon, very interesting area.
