Option 1

 * Article title: Social construction of gender
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article has so much varied content, it is difficult to follow and decipher what percentage is relevant. Compared to the overall article length, the lead section is incredibly short and vague. Some editor(s) seem to have included original research, so may not be entirely neutral. There is a variety of citations; the sources seem to have an appropriate date range, but some are only bare links and some information is left uncited. The talk page mentions an extremely US-centric bias, non-sourced claims, original research, a disorganized research methods section, and the page overall being a mess. The section "Intersections of gender identity with other identities" is very short and focused on white people and conditions the US; It only briefly mentions the concept of the intersectionality of race and gender, does not bring up specific groups or people, and does not bring up gender outside the binary. In general, many areas of the article feel dated, biased, and vague.

Option 2

 * Article title: Gender neutrality in English
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article's content appears relevant to the topic, but does not read as neutral in many cases. Some claims do not seem to have citations, and some citations seem unreliable. The talk page includes more aggressive and unfriendly conversation about the content than other articles I have read so far. The citations include people aside from men, but this is not apparent of the talk page users. Editors have already contributed by removing biased, irrelevant, and uncited information.
