Option 1

 * Article title
 * Oliviero Carafa


 * Article Evaluation
 * Though this article is well-researched, it nonetheless lacks several necessary citations and is flagged as such: indeed, the article is full of assertions that would require proper sourcing to be considered acceptable. Indeed, I would hope to more extensively. discuss the discussion of Carafa's historical career as a cardinal (to the extent that that information is available): while there is a more than adequate discussion of his patronage of the arts The lead section is also quite brief and thoroughly detached from the content of the article itself. If I were to edit this piece I would want to rewrite this section to bring it more into line with the rest of the piece.


 * Sources
 * Given the wealth of resources in our class Google Doc on Carafa, in attempting to adequately source our article and expand its contents I would start there.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Ferdinand I of Naples


 * Article Evaluation
 * In general, this article is rather comprehensive. However, I would be interested in fleshing out the discussion of his historical reputation: while described as a cruel man, I would be interested in providing a more in-depth account of his purported dysfunction, and get a better sense of what is actually true. In addition, the account of his relationships requires sourcing.


 * Sources
 * Though some of the academic sources linked in the article seem like a place to start--especially the Burkhardt, which is cited in the article directly attesting to his cruelty--I would hope to do more extensive research in the library.
