Option 1

 * Article title:Cordoba
 * Article Evaluation:Article has been rated class C. Some information regarding its history is missing. I feel like I could add some of the information about roman and muslim rule in the first milennia. My most significant contribution would probably stem from the prosperity that came from their innovations in water power.
 * Sources:The depth reading from class. Prelecture from class as well.

Option 2

 * Article title:Barcelona
 * Article Evaluation:Article has been rated class B. It would be harder to add new information to this article but I think that the article lacks in that it doesn't discuss the city's approach to urban planning.
 * Sources:Story of cities #13: Barcelona's unloved planner invents science of 'urbanisation':The Sagrada Família, a tale of two creators: Jordi Faulí shares Antoni Gaudí’s vision

Option 3

 * Article title:Siena
 * Article Evaluation:The article is class C. I think I could add information about the fall of the republic and the effect of the black death on the art of Siena. The article is also missing information about the unique design of the city.
 * Sources:Urbanism in the Archaeological Record: What is a city?:Hisham Matar on how the Black Death changed art forever

Option 4

 * Article title:Pompeii
 * Article Evaluation:Article class C. I could add some information about the modern issues facing Pompeii with regard to tourism, conservation and restoration, and UNESCO.
 * Sources:The Fall and Rise and Fall of Pompeii

Option 5

 * Article title:Florence
 * Article Evaluation:Article is class B. This one also might be hard to add information to, but I think I could contribute to information about the construction of the dome.
