Option 1

 * Article title Stockholm syndrome
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is very interesting and with many important information. I saw that is very neutral, gave a lot of different perspectives about this syndrome and every claim had a citation as a confirmation. Other detail that could make this article better, is to add images to it. I just saw one in all the article, and I think that more could help the reader to understand more the content. On the talk are a lot of interesting themes about this article, some of them talked about who was the real person to determine the existence of the syndrome. Others talked about a plagiarism in most of the content on this article, a user wrote this "It's worse than that -- except for the final paragraph, the entire section was plagiarized from that source. I've turned it into one big block quote. Obviously, the entire thing should be rewritten, and should use more than just that one source. Yakushima (talk) 06:21, 17 November 2010 (UTC)". This was 10 years ago, but is very worrying for a reader, because it makes the article doubtful. Others talked about other references better that the ones that the author gave at the beginning. After reading the talk page, I can see this maybe is a good article, with good information but is not trustworthy. I saw is rated low-importance or mid-importance by some WikiProjects. In conclusion, nice information but weak sources, weak on the use of images and weak on originality.

Option 2

 * Article title  Female genital mutilation in Nigeria
 * Article Evaluation
 * In my opinion, the article was very short but the information still being really important. The references are very good, they are not too old. One of them was from 2020 and others from 2018 so the reader is sure that the information has been updated. There was no comment on the talk page and the importance of this article has not yet been evaluated. The article tack a content gap considered very delicate, but if the author or future editors abound more on it and bring more references and images, the article could calla more the attention of the reader and will be more complete.

Option 3

 * Article title Grito de Lares
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is very complete, everything is related to the topic and had a lot of images and good references. I think when the author mentioned Lares flag, he or she could give more details about it, for example the meaning of the colors and the star on the flag. Each claim have a citation, in some cases the claim has two citations to give for security to the reader that the content is good and real. The content is very neutral exposing this theme and the different points of view of it. Is very neutral on the doubt if Puerto Rico gain strength and recognition or if it lost everything because revolutionaries could not achieve their principal purpose. I will modify the word "Cry of Lares", I saw on the Talk page that someone clarify that the word "cry" is related to "uprising" sometimes but often, readers could think on tears or suffering when they see the word "cry". That's a nice point that I think could made better the article, change the title "Cry of Lares" to "Lares Uprising". Other point is that the article mentioned some names that are on red, not in blue. This means that the page with the information of that name doesn't exist. This could make the reader think that the source is not sure or is not real, so I think that look for more information about the names in red that the author mentioned will make the article more complete and favorable to the reader.

Option 4

 * Article title  Indigo children
 * Article Evaluation
 * The content is very related to the topic. The article had a lot of good and interesting information, I liked the neutral point of view about the existence Indigo Children. I think that images will make this article better, and will call more the attention of the reader. The content had a lot of good and reliable citations after every claim. I really liked the content and the theme, what i found weak was weak the lack use of images. On the talk page, Wikipedians contributed with a modification of the external links, to update the information.

Option 5

 * Article title Epsilon Canis Majoris
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article was really interesting, everything was related to the topic. I really enjoyed the information, but I think that the use of more images will be better and favorable to the article. The discussion page, offered some updated articles to make the information more reliable to the reader. The article is rated C-class and this is because it needs more important information to have the content complete. With more information and with the use of images, the content could be better and favorable.
