Option 1

 * Port Hood Nova Scotia
 * Article Evaluation This article goes over the facts and some general info on the town of Port Hood, however, it does not state what the name is in Gaelic, but it does in French and Mi'kmaw. The source I've chosen is from a well known Gaelic dictionary called Faclair. It shows a map of where people use the word 'Seastago' for Port Hood.

Option 2

 * Article title Quadrilles
 * Article Evaluation This article goes over what a Quadrille is, when it was fashionable, and its origins. Something that could be improved is giving info on types of quadrilles and dances into which they've evolved such as the present day square dance in Cape Breton.
