Option 1

 * Article title
 * Max Samter


 * Article Evaluation
 * This is a stub article about a notable immunologist who discovered what is now called Samter's Triad or Aspirin Exacerbated Respiratory Disease (AERD). This article really only has one sentence and should be expanded significantly. There is almost no information about who Samter, his research, or any of the elements Wikipedia suggests should be part of a biography. It also does not mention Samter's antagonism with Nazi's and him fleeing Germany.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Jenny Lives With Eric and Martin- Jenny Lives with Eric and Martin


 * Article Evaluation
 * The main problems this article has with reliability are that some of its claims are not sourced and that one of the links in a citation does not work. When reading through the sources for this article I found that they were generally reliable sources that backed up the claims made in the article. There are also claims in the lead section that are not cited or mentioned elsewhere in the article. For example, the author claims that the book "was perhaps the first English-language children's book to discuss male homosexuality." In my opinion, this article could benefit from more sources to fill in some of the blind spots. The article is missing information on the background of both the book and the author. There is also much that could be added in regards to both analysis and reception. The article is missing information about the author of the book and there is much left unsaid about both the public and political reaction to this book. Also, the plot section could use bolstering as it is currently a short list of bullet points. It might also be appropriate to break up the analysis of how the nook was received into two sections since this was such an influential book that it influenced the creation of a law. Section 28 the law that was partially a response to this book might warrant its own section in this article.  I would fill in the gaps I mentioned above with information from other sources as well as remove or add citations to uncited claims. I would also tweak the structure of the articles and the section headers a bit. For example, I might change the Purpose section to a background section.

 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is a start class article about a hugely important topic.
