Option 1

 * Uzbek language
 * First of all, the introductory paragraph contains tons of outdated information about the current speakers of the Uzbek language and very little data provided regarding the origin and the history of the Uzbek language. Furthermore, so much information in the following sections, like Grammar, is not up-to-date; the Uzbek language acquires many changes every year thanks to the development of the technological era and the new non-Uzbek words that can't be translated to the Uzbek. In the history section, Ali-Shir Nava'i, Shaybani Khan, and  Ubaydulla Khan were mentioned, and they are the greatest poets in the entire history of Uzbekistan; however, there were also many great poets and philosophers that significantly contributed to the development of Uzbek, and they should also be mentioned in this article. Further, the link for 'Ubaydulla Khan' is not working. And the Writing sections of this article needs immediate evaluation because almost all the information provided in this area is neither outdated nor historically wrong. The phonology section should be expanded with more phonological features of the language because the phonology of the Uzbek is not only about the four-line information provided in this section. Subsequently, there is no any information on the phonology of the consonants. The grammar section is way more outdated and should immediately be evaluated. I am surprised that only nouns, verbs, and pronouns are explained in this section. Where are the adjectives, adverbs, and numerals?? The possessive cases part needs more data on this topic because there are more than 20 suffixes that make the possessive cases of the Uzbek language. The word order part was written from only one person's point of view. The word order in most of the sentences is indeed SOV (subject-object-verb); however, you can use VSO (verb-subject-object), SVO (subject-object-verb), and OSV (object-subject-verb) orders can also be used, and there are not grammatically wrong. The number of speakers section should immediately be updated because it is so outdated, and all the data provided in this section is inaccurate. The following pages must also be updated because they are outdated too.

Option 2

 * Khiva
 * This article needs a ton of evaluation. Because almost all the information in this article is historically underrepresented and data related to the years and population is outdated and needs to be updated. The historical years in the first section of this article are incredibly outdated, and most of them are incorrect. Khiva is one of the most ancient cities of Uzbekistan, and it is more than 2500 years old; however, in the intro of that article, they counted only the different names of Khiva and no more data about the rich history of the Khiva provided. There are many equity gaps in almost all the sections of the article, and much information was underrepresented or misrepresented. Not all the citations are reliable, and all the sections lack citations. And not all the claims have a citation.

Option 3

 * Languages of Uzbekistan
 * This article becomes more and more off-topic as we go to the end of the it. The title of this article is "Languages of Uzbekistan," so why is there not enough information bout the origin and history of these languages? And I believe that this Wikipedia article is not written using multiple points of view and looks like only one editor contributed to the development of this article because it is not written neutrally. Not all claims have a citation. Further, I am wondering why the editors of Wikipedia didn't use the scholarly articles or books written by native Uzbek scholars because they know every tiny detail about the linguistic diversity of Uzbekistan. Uzbekistan is one of the most linguistically diverse countries in the world. However, there is no information about the number of languages currently being used by the people living in Uzbekistan. There are a lot of equity gaps in almost every section. And the Talk page is almost empty, and there are only three comments on this page. That means this topic was not discussed well among the other Wikipedia editors, which means it needs more evaluation and improvement.

Option 4

 * History of Uzbekistan
 * Overall, very little data was provided on the ancient civilizations in Uzbekistan, and much information related to the years and the population is outdated. And why are they not using the resources and research books created by Uzbek scientists and scholars? Many claims need proper citation. Data provided in a couple of sections got this information from only one source, and because of this, sections were not written neutrally. Further, they are a few equity gaps in a section like a prehistory and early history.
