Option 1

 * Article title
 * Use of restraints on pregnant women


 * Article Evaluation
 * There seems to be mixing of sources, for example, it says the "three primary justifications," then follows with two from one source, and one from a separate source. The vocabulary could be improved throughout the article. This article does seem to stay neutral and relevant to the topic, however, I think that the experiences of women are quite muted in this article. The sources seem reliable but I believe there could be several more references added as the article improves.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Compulsory sterilization


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is written neutrally, however I think the article needs to be brought up to date. This article could also improve on being more concise and condensed, as it tends to get overwhelming long in some areas with unnecessary commentary. I would also like to add some more information concerning the United States and this occurring at the border.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article needs more verifiable information and reliable sources. This article can be updated as of 2021, because we have a new presidential administration. I feel as though this article is written neutrally because it has informative sections and a "Criticism" section, however, I feel both of these can be improved upon to create a more concise and improved article. Some sections are almost too narrow, and come across unfitting in within the page. Some sources are from biased news articles and can be eliminated and improved.
