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

Option 1

 * Article title: Pine Grove, West Virginia :
 * Article Evaluation: Good information but has outdated plant name as it has been changed since the article has been last updated. Also, has the local high school listed but the author did not hyperlink the Wikipedia article of the high school. Final critique is that the article does not yet contain the information from the 2020 Census and instead is based on Census data from 2010. :
 * Sources: https://data.census.gov/profile/Pine_Grove_town,_West_Virginia?g=160XX00US5463892
 * Valley High School (Pine Grove, West Virginia)

Option 2

 * Article title: Wetzel County, West Virginia :
 * Article Evaluation: A lot of good information about the county but the history part of the article has not been updated since the history of the 1980's. Also this article does not have a picture of a map that shows where the cities of the county are located. Finally, this article could use a section that helps people learn about notable people that were born inside of Wetzel County. :

Option 3

 * Article title: Fairmont, West Virginia :
 * Article Evaluation: This article contains a lot of very valuable information about the city of Fairmont and is a very well done Wikipedia page. One thing that could be useful is an updated population estimation from the Census Bureau as well as a part that shows how the population is divided in Fairmont. :

 * https://worldpopulationreview.com/us-cities/fairmont-wv-population:

Option 4

 * Article title: Morgantown, West Virginia :
 * Article Evaluation: This article contains a lot of useful information but lacks information about the modern history of Morgantown with the article cutting off in the 1970's. Also the article has some information that is outdated with the statistics being based in the 2010's mainly in the Demographics section. :

 * https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/morgantowncitywestvirginia/PST045222:

Option 5

 * Article title: Hundred, West Virginia :
 * Article Evaluation: This article could use a lot of work with it not having an updated 2020 Census section along with a lot of work needing to be done with the history with only the founding being in it. :
