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
 * Decontamination
 * Article Evaluation
 * There's not much substance to it at all. Decontamination is such a general term and it's not defined in any of the areas listed so far. They refer to environmental remediation in the stub, but does not delve deeper into the reason as to why it is related to environmental remediation. In the case of water purification and water treatment systems, they can easily reference the methods of water treatment and decontamination. There is also decontamination when discussing recycling regulations that could be mentioned in the passage.
 * Overall, there's just lack of content and a lot of areas that can be discussed.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Lovecraft Biofuels


 * Article Evaluation
 * There is a clear purpose of the company stated in the header, but there is a lack of content later on. There are no subcategories and no discussion on what type of technology this exactly is. I would add at least two subcategories, one discussing the history of the company and the reason behind the start-up. The next subcategory would be the actual process of its technology and discussing why this is so groundbreaking.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * The Idiot Cycle
 * Article Evaluation
 * Looking for a plot synopsis that is more in depth than the header. Also, adding a response or reception from the public would add more dimension.
