Option 3

 * Article title
 * Birth control in Japan


 * Article Evaluation
 * There is not a lot of content. It is missing information about the significance of birth control in Japan and how the government  creates laws to promote or degrade the use of it. It also does not include information regarding the different social parties in Japan views of birth control. There are not a lot of sources and information. I think this artticle lacks information, which makes it a poor source of information.
