Option 1

 * Article title
 * Organizational communication


 * Article Evaluation
 * Feels lacking in detail and explanations of significance of some of the sub topics. Heavy focus on research, less information about applications. Overall, feels like it needs restructuring of the content - many of the sub-topics could probably be combined under more general organizing topics.  Tone is neutral, but there is a lack of citation and nuanced explanations of the some of theoretical assumptions made in the field. Article needs much more citation overall.  Talk page mentions that there is both too much detail on some points, with parts of the content being redundant and lacking clarity, and that there needs to be a more logical breakdown of sub-topics overall.

Option 2

 * Article title.
 * Information architecture


 * Article Evaluation
 * Mentioned in HCI project as needing work - needs clearer differentiation from similar topics in information system design - from the emphasis in the intro on shared information environments, I believe that either this or an offshoot page could focus on information systems for communal use/access, or perhaps there could be a separate page focusing on Knowledge Management Systems specifically for collaborative and group work.
 * Needs more development of introduction of foundational concepts

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Crowdsourcing


 * Article Evaluation
 * Needs improvement in quality of writing, as well as improvement in overall structure of article
 * Needs more clarity in outlines the defining principles of crowdsourcing in order to coherently group and talk about the many examples included in the page

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Digital collaboration


 * Article Evaluation
 * Extremely sparse
