Option 1

 * Article title
 * Weaponized Interdependence


 * Article Evaluation
 * There is currently no article to evaluate. I would like to work with two or more other students on a page from scratch. There is not too many studies available currently. But, the works of Farrell and Newman appear to be vast and major developers of the idea. The two authors often speak on the definition of Weaponized Interdependence. On the wiki page, I would include the development, history, current examples, and issues for countries from this use.

 * Weaponized Interdependence How Global Economic Networks Shape State Coercion
 * Weaponized Interdependence the end of Globalization Podcast
 * Weaponized Interdependence – Economic Networks, Sanctions, and State Coercion
 * Perils for Medium and Minor Powers From the Weaponization of Interdependence

Option 2

 * Article title
 * International relations


 * Article Evaluation
 * I believe all the headings and content are related to the context of International relations. All the headings are written as facts and neutral. All major theories are also displayed on the page. Not all the claims have citations, which creates the chances of plagiarism. Not all the citations work and are available to fact check. The article doesn't address the equity gap. Mostly, more citations need to be included and fixed for better information.


 * Sources
 * International relation education
 * Theories of International relations

Option 3

 * Article title
 * International law


 * Article Evaluation
 * The content is relevant to the article, yet I would rearrange the formate to assist the flow. The article is written factually and neutrally. Not all claims appear to have a citation, which will need to be added. Not all the citations work or are easily available to fact-check. There is no equity gap covered in the article.

Article Title
Economic Globalization

Article Evaluation
All the information appears relevant about economic globalization, fitting the history, expansion, and each benefit and negative from globalization. The page appears to be neutral in voice as each argument is discussed to ensure there is no biases. Almost all the claims have a reference or support. I do believe that some paragraphs under Competitive advantages and Migrants could use more references as support. The citation appear reliable, some are not easy to access, yet all work. I do believe that most of the citations are dated and there may be more relevant ones to date. I believe the article may hint at Wikipedia's equity gap as it discusses the negative of property brought forth by globalization, but nothing is explicitly stated, except for possible fertility rates. There appears to be a lot of updating done on the page and an argument on the talk page of where economic globalization fits best. The most recent edits were sources dating to 2019. Due to the changes from the COVID-19, I believe more changes and updates would benefit this page.
