Option 1

 * Article title: Gender psychology
 * Article Evaluation:
 * Article Evaluation:

The article successfully references and discusses relevant information on the topic. I think to improve parts of the article would be to provide stats on the each gender specifically and analyze statistics on each gender considered. Additionally, a more in-depth history would be beneficial. The tone of the article is relatively neutral and unbiased. The articles within the text were properly hyperlinked and easy to use, but a certain link within the references did not work to bring me to the article I was looking for. There is only a brief Talk Page on the article, mostly referencing to slight changes that need to be considered for change within the article.

Option 2

 * Article title: Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on children
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This article successfully references and discusses relevant information on the the impacts of Covid-19 on children. Within the article, there is room for improvement in adding stressors, and how the effects on the children are also leading to added stress on the parents of the youth, or on youth that suffer from developmental disabilities. The article uses a neutral tone, despite the topic being a negative outcome in general concerning Covid-19. There could be better citations embedded within the text, but many of the references at the end of the Wiki Page have successfully linked each URL or DOI. The talk page is empty within the article as well.

Option 3

 * Article title: Physical disability
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This article is filled with gaps of knowledge, and it is in need of much improvement and new information. There is a lack in all areas within the article, including causes, and types. The article does use a neutral voice, but needs a lot of work in gaps of knowledge. The reference list is ver minimal, and there are citations within the article that need to be added to the text. There are considerable amounts of hyperlinks, which is a positive note about the article.
