Option 1

 * Article title: Pears (soap)
 * Article Evaluation: This article is neutral for the most part. There is good historical context and background on the company itself. However, there are a few holes to be filled. One, the sources are quite weak, particularly, secondary sources. There are only four books. A few blogs are also included. Secondly, the marketing section is thin and claimed that the soap stood for "progress". This section does a good job at demonstrating the vast volume of marketing and how it was practically applied, but does not delve deeper into why it was effective.
