Option 1

 * Article title
 * Polly Barton 
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article's content is relevant to the topic of underrepresented women for my class. The article itself discusses Ms. Barton, but lacks substantial information. It appears to be written neutrally, as the majority of it is just listing different works she has produced. I believe each claim does have a citation, but there is not much about her personal life or information beyond the exhibitions she has been a part of. The citations are reliable and work when interacting with the URLs. The article inadvertently address one of Wikipedia's equity gaps, as she is a woman working in contemporary art, but it is not entirely direct about this. The Talk page has one entry from 2013, which tells me this page is not entirely up to date and should likely be updated for Ms. Barton's recent works. I would like to include a larger portion of Ms. Barton's background and upbringing, as well as organizing her work by decades instead of just listing them. After doing some research on Polly Barton, I found she published her resume which is what makes up most of her Wiki page at this time.
 * Sources
 * https://chiaroscurosantafe.com/artists/235/
 * This link has a quote about Ms. Barton's artist statement. This could be helpful in providing more background about her, as well as inspirations. As of right now, she seems very two dimensional on her Wiki page with only her work and little background.
 * https://www.browngrotta.com/Pages/barton.php
 * This link has another artist statement from Ms. Barton. I find this helpful when finding what influences her the most as an artist.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Jean M. Winterbottom


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article does not yet exist. I would like to find out any information I could about this certified horticulturist from the United States, especially as she has passed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. I find her death to be timely and a biography about her life would be an excellent memorial of her life. I found this information on the WikiProject Women in Red, Missing articles by occupation, Horticulturalists.
 * Sources
 * https://www.heeney-sundquist.com/obituary/jean-winterbottom
 * This article is Ms. Winterbottom's obituary. It does not mention her occupation as a horticulturalist in great depth, which I would like to expand on.
 * The only other article's I could find on Ms. Winterbottom were variations of the obituary I already have linked. I would need some advice on how to find out more information on her besides googling other names she might have gone by.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Valorie Eliot


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article's content is relevant to the topic, as it goes into the upbringing and short biography of Valorie Eliot. It appears to be written neutrally, while much of the information online does not have a similar tone to it (especially as Ms. Eliot was much younger and T.S. Eliot's second wife). Yes, I believe each claim has a citation, but I do not think they are entirely creditable. The article is not very strong at showing Wikipedia's equity gaps with this article, as there is a significant amount of information missing in my opinion. This article's talk page contains only two entrees, one of which comes from 2016 and the other from 2019. I would like to add more to what Ms. Eliot did as part of her own work, and offering some more headers to the biography's organization.
 * Sources
 * https://www.theguardian.com/books/2012/nov/18/eliot-tragic-first-marriage
 * This article from The Guardian seems a bit biased, but I feel as though there is some information in it that could be helpful to the Wiki page.
 * https://time.com/4447078/valerie-eliot-90th-birthday/
 * This article is similar to The Guardian, in that there is a lot of focus on Ms. Eliot's devotion to her husband's work and memory. However, I would like to pull from this source to find items she might have taken interests in beyond T.S. Eliot's legacy.
