Option 1

 * Article title
 * Luteinizing Hormone


 * Article Evaluation
 * Overall, this article is okay, but it could be much better and have more information. There is an unequal amount of information between the effects of LH in males and females. I also feel like there could be more diagrams and pictures to help convey points made. This article does follow all of Wikipedia's guidelines.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Follicle-Stimulating Hormone


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is alright, but there is not a lot of information presented. There are two measly lines for the role of FSH in males. This article does follow Wikipedia's guidelines.


 * Sources
 * 1) Das N, Kumar TR. Molecular regulation of follicle-stimulating hormone synthesis, secretion and action. J Mol Endocrinol. 2018 Apr;60(3):R131-R155. doi: 10.1530/JME-17-0308. Epub 2018    Feb 7. PMID: 29437880; PMCID: PMC5851872.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Anti-Mullerian Hormone


 * Article Evaluation
 * This article is very well laid out, and includes a very broad scope of information. However, this article could be organized better and include diagrams to help convey points. This article does follow all of Wikipedia's guidelines.


 * Sources
 * 1) Xu HY, Zhang HX, Xiao Z, Qiao J, Li R. Regulation of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in males and the associations of serum AMH with the disorders of male fertility. Asian J Androl. 2019 Mar-Apr;21(2):109-114. doi: 10.4103/aja.aja_83_18. PMID: 30381580; PMCID: PMC6413543.

Endotext [Internet]. South Dartmouth (MA): MDText.com, Inc.; 2000–. PMID: 25905232.

Option 4

 * Article title
 * Androgen


 * Article Evaluation
 * Overall, a very nice article. So much information is presented and is organized nicely. There is a severe lack of information under the "Female Specific Effects" section; it has one line. MOre information should be included. This article does follow Wikipedia's guidelines.


 * Sources
 * 1) Yildiz BO. Diagnosis of hyperandrogenism: clinical criteria. Best Pract Res Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2006 Jun;20(2):167-76. doi: 10.1016/j.beem.2006.02.004. PMID: 16772149.

Option 5

 * Article title
 * Estrogen


 * Article Evaluation
 * A lot of information is presented in this article. However, it is very poorly organized and the sections do not flow cohesively. I think it would be beneficial to add a section about estrogen's role in the menstrual cycle and breast cancer. The article mentions the menstrual cycle and breast cancer a fair amount, but never mentions how estrogen plays a role in either of them.
