Option 1

 * Article title
 * Karen C. Johnson


 * Article Evaluation
 * There are only two sections to the article. It should be split into more sections. In addition, a picture could be added. There are grammatical errors and some of the content is written in a way that is unclear. There is a good amount of information, but it needs to be organized. There is no information about her after 2014.

 * Article Evaluation

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Haruko Obokata
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article feels biased when reading it. It seems to demonize Obokata. There are several sources that have a negative perspective of her. There are not many sources that have a positive perspective of her work. There is room for more details about events in her life. There are also some spelling and grammar errors in the article. There are no pictures included, so that is another possible area for improvement.

Her publication is also just listed with no information about the publication itself. There is no information about her personal life included. There are very little details.
