Option 1

 * Article title: Muted group theory :
 * Article Evaluation: The article's content is relevant to the topic because it covers the theory's origins, the muting process that marginalized groups endure, the three assumptions of muted group theory, and worldly applications to the workplace, mass media and social rituals. The content is neutral as it addresses the critiques of the theory and counterbalances each claim with reputable communication research. Each claim does have a citation. For example, "the elderly are often ignored and marginalized" has a citation directing to the Journal of Elder Abuse and Neglect. The citations are reliable and do not have any broken links. The article does address coverage of historically underrepresented or misrepresented populations, from women of color and people with disabilities. On the Talk Page, one graduate student/Wikipedian mentioned that he improved the page with up-to-date citations of muted group theory and the use of framing devices to sequester original narratives research. :

Option 2

 * Article title: Priming :
 * Article Evaluation: The article's content is relevant to the topic because it delves into priming's influence in the media sphere, particularly in politics and general aggression model. The content is neutral because it lays out studies of priming on presidential campaigns and the ongoing debate of its effectiveness in replication. Most of the claims have a citation, but there is room for improvement. The citations are reliable, drawing from the American Journal of Political Science and Mass Communication and Society. The article does not address coverage of historically underrepresented or misrepresented populations. On the Talk Page, there have not been any conversations initiated. :

Option 3

 * Article title: Exploitation of women in mass media :
 * Article Evaluation: The article's content is relevant to the topic because it is a prolific issue that influences society's perception of women through the lens of misogyny or sexism. The article is pretty balanced in spite of teetering between the perceptions of the "male gaze" and the "female gaze." There are a diverse spectrum of authors, particularly using peer-reviewed articles from the Right for Equality and Journal of Youth and Adolescence. The links do work. Each claim does have a citation. The article doesn't necessarily deal with Wikipedia's equity gaps. In the "Soap Opera" section, there is an absence of discussion relating to Spanish telenovelas. On the Talk Page, Wikipedians have suggested changing the tone because it read as favoring the objectification of women in mass media. It doesn't read with that tone now. Others showed how Wiki-Education Foundation supported this course assignment.

Option 4

 * Article title: Sexual script theory :
 * Article Evaluation: The article's content is relevant to the topic because it covers the social construction of sexual identities and how sexual scripts are organized based on gender, class, ethnicity and other social vectors. The content is neutral as it examines sexual script theory from a macroscopic lens. Not all claims have a citation. There is one note at the end of the sentence "if judged positively they are called 'sexual restraint' or 'sexual decency' that a citation is needed. The citations are reliable, deriving from peer-reviewed articles in the Journal of Gender Studies, the Journal of Genetic Psychology and The Family Journal. The article briefly addresses coverage of historically underrepresented or misrepresented populations. There needs to be more information on queer culture, victims of rape and men's/women's sexual scripts. On the Talk Page, Wikipedians have mentioned in 2008 that there needs to be more stylistics modified within the article. :

Option 5

 * Article title: Fear appeal :
 * Article Evaluation: The article's content is relevant to the topic because fear appeal is evaluated in the context of marketing, sociology and psychology. The article also lays out multiple models of the fear of persuasion and how it affects consumers/viewers. The content is neutral as the sections build upon former research such as on the transtheoretical model or factors that affect fear appeal's efficacy. Not every claim has a citation. The citations are reliable, drawing from the Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment and the Journal of Consumer Research. The article does not address coverage of historically underrepresented or misrepresented populations. On the Talk Page, there has been no discussions among Wikipedians. :
