 * Multi-step flow theory
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is relevant to the course CMN 2160 and discusses the multi-step flow theory by Paul Lazarsfeld. There is not much information on the Criticisms section of this page and it could definitely have more critiques. Other than that the article is written in a pretty neutral tone addressing the subject.

Option 3

 * Mental Health
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article does a good job describing what mental health is. One improvement that could be made is to include more recent information regarding mental health. It's a good start as all the citations are relevant and factual but more in-depth analysis is needed, considering the effects of living through COVID-19 could be something beneficial worth discussing to further develop the article. Finally, when you look on the talk page, there are flags that have been on this article since 2010.
