Option 1

 * Article title
 * Heddal Stave Church


 * Article Evaluation
 * For this Wikipedia page, I figured I could add to it since it looked to be lacking some information and appeared to be a little empty. That being said, it is written in a neutral perspective, the content is relevant/cited but some of these sources could be improved upon, especially since not every claim it makes is sourced.


 * Sources
 * Here are some I plan to look into further regarding this topic:

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Tower of Jericho


 * Article Evaluation
 * With a variety of sources for such a small article, providing evidence for each claim, I still think this could be enhanced further regarding its construction and history.

Option 3

Option 4
