Option 1

 * Article title:Avra Valley, Arizona
 * Article Evaluation:The lead on it is very short, and the article overall is very short. But it does give detailed information about the geography, climate, and demographic. there are also a couple charts that show temperatures/months, and measurements of things like elevation, population, area in square miles and it gives some more info like the zipcode, area code, coordinates, and county. And I can also compile information about the agriculture in the area.::In my opinion, this is would be a very good article for me to edit because I live in that area and have lived out there for a while. Whereas this article is basic info about the area, I can add information on all of the businesses, neighborhoods, etc. that are in the area. I can contribute more on the side of what is in Avra Valley as far as infrastructure. This article started with a good foundation on the land and natural side of it.

Option 2

 * Article title:Red Queen (novel)
 * Article Evaluation:The lead gave good background information about the author, series, genre, publication date, and an Good reads Choice Award nomination. The lead was only four sentences and didn't really go over all of the topics explained such as the more internal facts about the book: the main character, and part of the plot. The article also has a section about the reception of the book, but this wasn't brought up in the lead. There was one picture in the article, it is the cover of the book. It's a good article and has a lot of information about the book, I really like that there is a list of the main/important characters and a description of them and their role. Over all it is a good article but it needs a stronger lead and maybe some more pictures. If I choose this one to work on I might contribute pictures, and I would put in more research/info about the Goodreads Choice award nomination because it was brought up in the lead but wasn't really explained later in the article.
