Article Selection
Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Notes:

After finalizing your article choice, you should assign that article to yourself. Return to your Wiki Education Dashboard course page and add it in the My Articles section.

The next step will be to start compiling a list of relevant and reliable books, journal articles, and other sources. You can keep a running list of these sources in your bibliography to reference easily when you start writing. Once you've assigned yourself the article, your bibliography can be found by going to the My Articles section and clicking on the Bibliography link underneath the article you are working on.

Option 1

 * Article title: Reflective writing
 * Article Evaluation
 * This is the article I'm going to choose. It's a stub article on a subtopic of writing, which is my hobby and my job. It has currently no sources, minimal content, and doesn't link much to other pages on Wikipedia. There are lots of academic articles available in GALILEO on this topic.

Option 2

 * Article title: Call to action (marketing)
 * Article Evaluation
 * This article still has work to do, but it's full enough that it wouldn't be a good project for me to tackle. It already has an infobox, an image, several sources, and multiple sections of text. The overall tone is neutral, which is good: was concerned there would be strong language given it's a marketing article.

 * Sources
 * Most of them are good: a few books and an articles from WSJ. There are a few weaker online sources, and the first two paragraphs have no sources at all, which is an issue.

Option 3

 * Article title: Marketing collateral
 * Article Evaluation
 * Pretty weak: only has one source and one paragraph of real content. Although there is work to do on the article, I worry about the notability: wouldn't think the concept of marketing collateral would be significant enough to need a full article of explanation.

•	This is a pretty strong source, coming from Harvard Business Review: but it's currently the only one supporting the article. From a quick search on GALILEO, academic material on marketing collateral is sparse.
