Option 1

 * Article title: The Feminist Movement
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This article doesn't include enough about the intersectional feminist movement. My updates would rely on Kimberle Crenshaw and the Combahee River Collective Statement. Both of these are foundational texts on intersectionality and feminism and certainly should be included in any discussion of the feminist movement. It discusses Crenshaw when discussing "Feminist thought" but this discussion clearly warrants its own section that delves deeper into the Combahee River Collective.

Option 2

 * Article title: Identity Politics
 * Article Evaluation:
 * The portion of this article discussing gender is remarkably short and doesn't do enough to bring identity politics into other discussions. My edits would include discussions of substantive and descriptive representation in politics. This would broaden the article and bring it into contemporary political discourse. I think this is important and speaks to the discrepancies between gender in politics

Option 3

 * Article title: Voting Behavior
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This article barely touches on the gendered nature of voting behavior. My edits would include discussions of gender gaps in voting behavior and well as how gender stereotypes impact voting behavior. These edits will also incorporate discussion of how the descriptive characteristics of candidates influence voting behavior and how that intersects with gender. I think the treatment of women in politics might be relevant to discuss here as well.
