Option 1

 * Article title - Citrus strikes of 1936:
 * Article Evaluation -
 * The current status of this article is weak with a C class rating and almost no information on the event. There is roughly three paragraph long sections covering one of the most important labor strikes in our local history. Migrant workers voices and story should be heard and is not told in this article. Sources feature mostly newspaper articles but no secondary or academic sources. Additionally some of the claims are missing citations or evidence. On the talk page their is currently no discussions going on in regards to improve the article. I believe this would be a perfect article to add to. :

Option 2

 * Article title - Atomic Veterans:
 * Article Evaluation -
 * The article lacks depth and a significant amount of information about a group of veterans who was exploited and treated as a science experiment. The sources used do not feature any peer reviewed journal articles or books covering thetopic. The information provided appears to be accurate but does not hold any significance in regards to the medical effects, outcomes or lasting effects on them and their children. The article barely mentions any of the specific details of the nuclear testing and only glances over the locations. This to would be a fantastic article to build upon.:

 * 3 Tucker, Todd. Atomic America : How a Deadly Explosion and a Feared Admiral Changed the Course of Nuclear History. 1st Free Press hardcover ed., Free Press, 2009. :

Option 3

 * Article title - Ghost Army:
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is currently rated a B so there is room for improvement. While this is not a group of underrepresented, their contributions to the efforts of WWII are both critical and impressive. The article holds a neutral tone and the evidence appears to be properly cited. I believe the article could be improved in the details of the events and impact made on the war effort.:
