Article Selection
Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

 * Article title
 * Astrolinguistics


 * Article Evaluation
 * There seems to be a decent amount of sources for the content but not nearly enough inline citations within the article. On top of this, the article could easily be expanded upon be it an entirely new subcategory or more sources to give more content throughout each subcategory. The lead for what Astrolinguistics is is also very thin.


 * Sources
 * The article has no images or pages that lead to the books (uncreated pages need links or references elsewhere). The article could also use some more sources to cement its ideas.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Cognitive linguistics


 * Article Evaluation
 * Things are well written throughout the article. Each piece of the article has a valid summary that explains the concept(s) easily but there is a little bit of bias throughout. This article also has a limited number of inline citations which is the same issue of the previous article.


 * Sources
 * The article is outnumbered by further reading than it is sources, which may prove a problem for the potentially interconnection of topics that could be had.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Corpus linguistics


 * Article Evaluation
 * The history section of this page is much longer than the other sections, including the introduction. In my opinion, one of the most important parts of the page is Methods but the descriptions of each method and the importance of each method falls extremely short. The article is also very neutral throughout; this will need to continue with any edits I potentially make. Overall I see a need to either condense the history section or expand upon the other two.


 * Sources
 * The sources throughout are okay but the methods section could use more citations to prove that they were actually created due to corpus linguistics other than the single source the article provides.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Apheresis (linguistics)


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is too short and to the point, ironically enough. The summary is decent for what it is in length but deserves a much longer and more prose-like effort.


 * Sources
 * There is only one reference but I imagine this aspect of the field has been studied enough to have more

Option 5
