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:Controlled Burn
 * Article Evaluation:There body of the article is well-formatted, and the headings are clear and organized. There are good sources where there are some, but overall, the Talk page of the article repetatively states that there are not enough sources for the information that is on the page. It is rated C-class, and can use improvement. The most recent comment on the Talk page brings attention to the fact that there are quite a few examples of the use and perspective of controlled burns in Australia and not many examples of their use in North America. Overall, there is room to expand on the geography of where controlled burns are used and solid sources to follow.

Option 2

 * Article title:Native American use of fire in ecosystems
 * Article Evaluation:Hard to say where things need to go from just reading the Talk page, there was some dispute between user opinion that clouded clear discussion and evaluation of the article and its content. It is rated C-class and one of the two subjects that are addressed within the article and have their own Wikiproject as the driving force to creating the informational page is rated as high importance, so there is some urgency in updating the information posted on this page. The source I have in mind could help to highlight the use of fire to help assist the growth of specific native plants that a particular tribe in Northern California classify as essential their subsistence off of the land.
 * Sources:Stories as data: Indigenous research sovereignty and the “Intentional Fire” podcast by Anna M Murviet et al.:https://www.jstor.org/stable/2563351

Option 3

 * Article title:History of fire suppression in the United States
 * Article Evaluation:There is a good start to this article, with sources and work from users who are a part of a larger group that is addressing improving and expanding the reliability and available info in Wiki articles concerning fire and wildfire. Sources should definitely be reviewed, as the article is labeled as a "Start" class article, and is still developing and as been rated of High importance by the project who initiated its creation. On the Talk page, there are specific requests for certain information to be added, which makes it clear what areas other editors can see needs help.
