Option 1

 * Article title
 * SMC4


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article briefly explains where the SMC4 gene is found but does not offer much written information. The article does include external links to more information on the gene location in different species, the ontology, and orthologs. Overall, the article is well cited but offers almost no helpful information to the average person about the SMC4 gene. There is definitely room for improvement in this article.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * SMC3


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article focuses on the gene SMC3 and explains the structure and interactions from this gene. It does not discuss the history or discovery of the gene, but it is thorough with its behavior and role in chromosome maintenance. The article also mentions a syndrome  known to be caused by defects in the SMC3 gene. There is more discussion on research involving mice and a small section on basement membranes. These areas have room for growth but may be limited by what is actually known on SMC3 genes.
