 * then "Return to your Wiki Education Dashboard course page and add it in the My Articles section" with chosen article
 * Article Evaluation
 * Though this structure has a good structure and information, this c-class article relies on basically one source. Citations from other sources and therefore needed to make it more reliable. This article can be further updated by adding information relating to the past few years (2020-2022), since the HIV/AIDS crisis is ongoing.

Option 2

 * LGBT rights opposition
 * Article Evaluation
 * Wikipedia flags some of the sections in this article to be written in "personal" way; this needs to be altered to demonstrate an encyclopedic tone. Furthermore, this article needs expansion, as it needs a section relating to the Catholic Church's position on LGBTQ+ rights. The information related to the boy scouts of America needs to be updated to accurately reflect their current standpoint on the topic. Though this article is rated B-class, there are several sections that really need to be reworked.

Option 3

 * Women in the World Wars
 * Article Evaluation
 * Numerous WikiProjects have rated this article either start or c class. WikiProject Women's History rates in start class with a high importance. This article does not present a worldwide view of women during both World Wars. It primarily focuses on women in the United States and Europe, so a lot of expansion is needed. I also think a section on the implications of these wars in relation to women's roles in society could also be added.

Option 4

 * Hannah English Williams
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article has not been created yet, and therefore needs a lot of work. According to the Smithsonian Project on Wikipedia, Williams was the first woman in the colonies to gather scientific evidence from both animals and plants.
