Article evaluation
I chose to evaluate the Wikipedia article on Immigration Reform in the United States. First of all, I feel as if the general structure of the article could use some work. Articles are most effective when there is an overarching summary of the points before the table of contents, and I would suggest a revision such that more information were to support the definition that is currently above the table of contents.

I further believe that the section on the Immigration Modernization Act of 2013 can be expanded with information as to just how close the bill was to passing. In particular, the paragraph mentions that House of Representatives has never voted upon the the bill, but they do no explain the complex special interest groups and lobbyists that prevented such a vote.

Finally, the section of President Trump's framework is very brief and could use some more details. In particular, there should be mention of the rhetoric he uses upon discussing immigration reform. This is not partisan commentary at all as it is rhetoric that can be directly quoted and supported by President Trump. Figures regarding the number of decorations by ICE officers under his administration can also be included at this point.

I voiced one concern on the talk page.

We have selected to following articles regarding our topic #StandWithHongKong.

==== Reactions to the 2019–20 Hong Kong ====


 * 1) Has a warning about it being too long to read
 * 2) Like how it focuses on other locations, social media helped the movement spread around the world
 * 3) Irrelevant unsupported claims under “Pro-government parties”
 * 4) Includes criticisms of the movement and criticisms of major events (for example, “Allegations of foreign interference” gives a balanced view of this issue)
 * 5) Interesting section called “advertising” discussing how Twitter and Facebook handled paid ads from government agencies that were targeted at protesters
 * 6) This is a potential place to add a section about #StandWithHongKong
 * 7) Censorship section
 * 8) Discusses censorship on WeChat and Weibo
 * 9) Can talk about people’s HK related social media posts being censored as well
 * 10) Social media section
 * 11) Twitter and facebook investigating disinformation
 * 12) Perhaps in our #moveme we can talk more about censorship in China as well as HK

==== Tactics and methods surrounding the 2019–20 Hong Kong protests ====


 * 1) Has a fairly clear breakdown of sections divided as follows: Major principles, demonstrations, alternative protests, art & music, technology, and publicity. Includes many broken links/citations.
 * 2) Major Principles
 * 3) Decentralization of movement allowing for the fluidity of protestors in bypassing government watch
 * 4) Technology
 * 5) For this page’s “Technology” header, little is mentioned about the use of social media platforms such as Twitter or Facebook and the hashtag itself. Other forms of tech-related tactics include “Doxxing, AirDrop, broadcasting, and crowdfunding,” which focuses more on the internal methods of recruitment and garnering support. More can be mentioned about methods of garnering support externally.
 * 6) Talk Page is bustling with conversation, similar to other Wikipedia articles we’ve picked.

2019–20 Hong Kong protests

 * 1) Has warning about too long to read, should be split into subsections
 * 2) There is already a reactions article so reactions should be kept to a minimum on this main page and instead the other article should be linked.
 * 3) Talk page is very lengthy, multiple follow-ups to various additions with debates over whether facts are accurate
 * 4) The section on coronavirus impacting the frequency and size of protests is very interesting. However, the second part of the section seems to contain some irrelevant information adding to an already length article.
 * 5) The entire article hasn’t mentioned anything about #StandWithHongKong movement on social media platforms, as the International Reaction section seems to be the perfect place to discuss how people around the world are being involved in this movement.
