 * Article Evaluation:This article focuses on the dispersal of seeds and pollen varying from different parts of the world including pollen of different botany. The article provides a strong leading section as it defines and describes what seed/pollen dispersal is. It's easy to read for a layperson who is generally interested or interested in being educated of the migration of pollen and botany. The behavior of pollen is important in understanding how certain plants can grow in certain terrains and mobility with certain temperatures. The content in this article is relevant to the subject. The tone was informative and neutral. The writing quality and organization is well thought out and made the article easy to follow. This article is a C-class article with a view of 225. The article provides enough images but could use more detail pertaining to the different behaviors of pollen with relate to temperature and environment.

Option 2

 * Article title Biological dispersal
 * Article Evaluation:This article gives a General definition of dispersal and how it applies to different species. This article has a good leading section as it states the different subcategories under the general umbrella of dispersal. All details are relevant tot he topic. However, it has no direct indication of human dispersal. I would like to add how species dispersal also applies to humans or any large species of animal. The views for this article, although is a S status article, is 51 with a completion of 72%. The talk page on this article has been very disorganized and difficult to comprehend from complaints to additional information added. I would not recommend this article to a lay person as some terms require you to have a familiar background to science or specifically biology and ecology. The article is well organized and written. Although well written and many references have been listed, there weren't many cited within the article itself.

Option 3

 * Article title Dispersal vector:
 * Article Evaluation:This article needs more work in the leading section as it is brief and short. This article is similar to Biological Dispersal and is graded as a C-class article with a view traction of 8 views and a completion of 85%. This is a small article as it branches from a Biological Dispersal article. This article includes the dispersal of humans correlated to the movement of water along with many species. This articles requires a lot of work and information. However, the tone is neutral and needs more work in organization. The authors need to review the article more to correct any grammatical or phrasing errors. I would not recommend this article to a lay person because the vocabulary requires somer former knowledge on biology. . It's also not very organized because of the section that includes a mammal and plant in one subcategory. There isn't much of a talk page on this article. It just shows that this article was included in a wikiproject by students.
