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

Option 1

 * Article title Founder effect
 * Article Evaluation - The content on this article is relative to the topic. It provides a general understanding of the Founder Effect through different categories containing general information, founder mutations, specific examples, and affects on humans. It is written neutrally and has nothing that stands out to be biased. It is a pretty informative approach to the topic which reduces room for any personal opinions to sneak in. However, each claim does NOT have a citation included with it. Along with that, there are some claims that even need further explanations added to the concepts.
 * Sources - "The effective founder effect in a spatially expanding population"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/evo.12609 (This scholarly article could help advance the history of the founder effect and broaden perspective), "Founder effect in crop-plant evolution" https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF02907844 (This article would be able to expand on one of the claims that needed further explanation)

Option 2

 * Article title Linguistic discrimination
 * Article Evaluation - This article provides a rather clear presentation about information on the discrimination of language. It is very expansive in many different categories of this page. It includes in depth history, examples, and it also covers countries outside of the United States. While the content of this page does address unrepresented people well and also provides information in a neutral fashion, there are areas of this article that need added citations and further explanations.
 * Sources https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/french-language-charter-reforms-2905434/ (This article brings clarity and reference to a claim that needed citations), "Educational Policy and the Role of the Irish Language from 1831 to 1981" https://www.jstor.org/stable/1503260 (This article clarifies a statement made that needed clarification)

Option 3

 * Article title Nonstandard dialect
 * Article Evaluation- This article does not provide much detail or content on the subject. While it is neutral, it does not expand much on the topic and areas that could be considered. The claims that are made have citations, but this page could grow substantially more. In the talk page, it refers to two different WikiProjects that this article is a part of. It is apart of the Languages WikiProject and the Linguistics WikiProject.
 * Sources https://scholarworks.umass.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1089&context=cie_capstones (This source would add depth to the information as it provides examples)

Option 4

 * Article title Lumbee
 * Article Evaluation- This article focuses mainly on the Lumbee tribe. While this article does a good job at representing this tribe and recognizing their history, the content for their language is lacking. It does not provide much depth to their language. It gives some examples that work to provide understanding, but does not provide a deep history with prominent figures or evolution. Each claim is represented with a citation, but overall, this section could be expanded.
 * Sources https://www.pbs.org/speak/seatosea/americanvarieties/lumbee/, http://www.native-languages.org/lumbee.htm, https://lumbee.library.appstate.edu/bibliography/dann001 (All three of these sources would provide more detail and examples regarding the Lumbee dialect)
 * Sources https://www.pbs.org/speak/seatosea/americanvarieties/lumbee/, http://www.native-languages.org/lumbee.htm, https://lumbee.library.appstate.edu/bibliography/dann001 (All three of these sources would provide more detail and examples regarding the Lumbee dialect)

Option 5

 * Article title Subordination (linguistics)
 * Article Evaluation- In my own personal opinion, I do not see much to change about this article. It is very informative of what subordination in linguistics is. However, the only thing that may be missing is a brief history. I could see how there could be room for a history of usage and evolution of the concept or even differentiation from other grammatical concepts such as coordination.

These specific articles could add onto a history and differentiation of this concept)
