Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

NOTE: I already chose what article I am doing, but I do have notes from when I was trying to choose it. That's why I don't have all of them filled out, however, I am able to put in the others that ended up being dead ends research-wise if needed to.

Option 1

 * Article title

Mitchell's Water Monitor.


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is labelled as a "start" article, and it needs a lot of information for it to be a completed article. This is the article I have decided to edit for my project. This article needs more information, especially concerning the conservation status of the species. There is a lot of scientific literature to provide new information for the article, even information concerning their conservation status. I would also update the lead section to be more detailed, and go into more details on the lizard's diet and habits. This article mentioned that there aren't many v. mitchelli in captivity, but I did find information on them in captivity.
 * Sources
 * Not all of their claims are backed up by citations, but the majority are. I would add in more sources, specifically from more scientific articles than encyclopedias of lizards.
 * I have a total of 17 sources in a Google doc that I will use for my article, and I can find more.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Gambelia Sila


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article isn't complete, yet it has a lot more information than the last article. This was one article that I was considering editing, yet there are barely any scientific articles on this species. This article might not be the best for me to edit, because it does already have a section on the conservation of the species, and most of the categories are already filled out thoroughly.


 * Sources
 * This article has a lot more citations than the last article, but doesn't reference sources throughout the article.
 * Here's some sources, and places where I am finding sources.
