Option 1

 * Article title
 * Syntax Diagram


 * Article Evaluation
 * This page is entirely lacking in tree structures that so many people associate with syntax diagrams. It states that the "layperson" can easily understand those, but Wikipedia is for the "layperson," myself included, and not a place scholars go to further knowledge on something they most likely have a degree in already.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Morphology (Linguistics)


 * Article Evaluation
 * Some of the information written can be found in the following source, so I will rewrite it and add in-line citations because the article is grossly lacking those.


 * Sources
 * Hazen, Kirk. 2015. Words made of many parts. In Kirk Hazen, An introduction to language, 177–215. Chichester, England: Wiley Blackwell.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Bound and Free Morphemes


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is way too short, especially the intro. A lot more can be said on bound and free morphemes.  Also, I understand writing from a primarily English point of view since that is what we are reading and writing in, but the knowledge of what bound and free morphemes are can applied to most every language.
