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

Option 1

 * Josh Richards (internet personality)
 * The article's content is relevant to the topic. All the information that is written down is about the internet star, Josh Richards. Each claim does not have a citation attached to it. There are some in the first sentence or two that do not include any citations (where he's from, his siblings). Each source is reliable enough. This article does not tackle one of Wikipedia's equity gaps since it is just about a Tik Tok star. By going on the Talk page, it does not seem as though anyone has made significant contributions to the article. This article can easily be improved by adding more information. There is not enough information about the subject.

Option 2

 * Lagos Lagoon
 * The article's content is relevant to the topic of Lagos Lagoon. It includes nice geographical information and even a couple of pictures to help. It seems as though each claim has a citation. Each source is reliable enough. I believe that this article covers one of Wikipedia's equity gaps because it is an article about an underrepresented area in Africa. This article also does not have enough information on it so it can easily be improved by simply adding more about Lagos Lagoon. By going on the Talk page, it does not seem as though anyone has made significant contributions to the article.

Option 3

 * Second-language acquisition classroom research
 * The article's content is relevant to the topic of the research on second-language teaching. It includes plenty of information and is even divided into different sub-categories which makes it nice and organized. It seems as though each claim has a citation that is definitely reliable enough. This article does not tackle one of Wikipedia's equity gaps since it is not about a historically underrepresented or misrepresented population or subject. By going on the Talk page, it seems as though people have contributed to the article but no one is communicating with each other on the page. To improve this article, I could go on the Talk page and suggest more sources to use to add extra information. I could also go and fix some tiny grammatical errors throughout the article.
