Option 1

 * Article title
 * Reproductive rights


 * Article Evaluation
 * - The information within this article included a variety of aspects regarding reproductive rights, as the author's successfully argue the significance of reproductive rights for both men and women, as well as how these liberties impact the intersexual community. Additionally, there is an extensive amount of data in regard to specific regions around the globe to provide the audience with a comparison between how differing societies have approached the implementation of reproductive rights. Nonetheless, I found the specific analysis of Iran and Cairo to be excessive and not overwhelmingly important to include within the article.
 * - Although the article includes an extensive amount of factual information regarding the existence or lack of reproductive rights, the claims made within the work are not neutral and instead, convey the author's perception of human rights.
 * - Each claim, as well as general information, within the article are cited using reliable sources.
 * - The article is effective in addressing Wikipedia's equity gaps, as it focuses not only on rights that more predominantly impact women, but also historically underrepresented populations in Asia and the Middle East.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Intelligence-led policing


 * Article Evaluation
 * - The content of the article is relevant to the topic of intelligence-led policing, as the author includes information not only regarding the theory behind the model, but also the history behind its development and implementations within different countries. The information included also addresses the implications and concerns regarding the intelligence-led strategy as opposed to operational-based approaches.
 * - The tone of the article is written neutrally, as the audience is provided with factual information regarding the intelligence-led policing model as opposed to the author's opinions on whether or not this approach is superior to another.
 * - Although the citations that are included within the article are from reliable sources, there are many pieces of information that do not include citations.
 * - The information within the article is in regard to policing, whose impacts not only impact the general population, but have more severe negative effects in minority communities. Nonetheless, I found the article not to address Wikipedia's equity gaps as the case studies include western countries such as the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Maternity leave and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development


 * Article Evaluation
 * - The content within this article was extremely limited, even though the information within it was relevant to the topic of maternity leave. The "Background" section seemed to focus more greatly on parental leave in general as opposed to maternity leave specifically. Furthermore, the article would have benefited greatly from a further discussion of the history of maternity leave and the impact of taking such an extensive break on the perception of a woman's career and interactions within her workplace. Finally, the "By country" subsection is severely lacking important information that could potentially include far more specific case studies.
 * - Nonetheless, the Wikipedia article maintained a neutral tone and only provided factual information as opposed to the personal opinion of the author.
 * - Although some of the claims included citations, there were multiple paragraphs in which there were limited sources cited.
 * - The citations that are included are generated from reliable sources.
 * - As a result of the severe lack of information, the article fails to address a topic within Wikipedia's equity gaps. I found this to be a surprise, however, because the article subject could have focused on the intersectionality to gender and race on maternity leave.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Education in Afghanistan


 * Article Evaluation
 * - The content of the article was relevant to the topic of education in Afghanistan, as it contained information in regard to the background and history of educational institutions in a variety of regions throughout the country. Additionally, the author includes an analysis of the multiple challenges surrounding the development of access and policies in regard to primary, secondary, and tertiary schools.
 * - The article is written in a neutral tone.
 * - Each claim made not only has a citation, but there are embedded links throughout the works as well. The resources in the references subsection of the Wikipedia page are reliable.
 * - Finally, the article does sufficiently address Wikipedia's equity gaps, as it covers information regarding the Afghan population, and specifically women. These populations are historically underrepresented and misrepresented.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * Labor rights


 * Article Evaluation
 * - The content of the article is relevant to the topic of labor rights, as it provides an analysis of the intersection between workers' rights and human rights, as well as the issues that labor rights attempt to address, varying between specific challenges fostered by one's age, gender, and documentation status.
 * - The article written by the author maintains a tone of neutrality throughout the works, as much of the subsections include descriptive information in regard to current standards of living wages and social sustainability.
 * - Not only are all the claims and evidences made with the use of citations, but the resources used are from reliable sources.
 * - Finally, the article tackles one of the Wikipedia's equity gaps, as the author discusses migrant workers, both documented and undocumented, as well as the impacts of globalization within he international spheres. As such, the article addresses historically underrepresented or misrepresented populations.
