Option 1

 * Jesús Colón
 * Article Evaluation:
 * The content of this article is based on Jesús Colón and the author used a variety of sources. Although the author did a good job of summarizing his early years and the "Nuyorican Movement," I wish that they would have talked more about his specific works instead of just listing them. For example, "My Wife Doesn't Work" is an interesting piece from The way it was, and other writings and I feel as though it is one of many of his works that could have been discussed in this article.

Option 2

 * Jovita González
 * Article Evaluation:
 * Although the author did a good job of summarizing Jovita's early life and education, they should not have combined so many categories into one section of the article. If I were to modify or rewrite this article, I would have "published works" as its own section so I could do a more in depth analysis of her work instead of just listing her work.

Option 3

 * María Cristina Mena
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This is a well written article. The author did a excellent job of dividing the article in multiple sections and going into great detail. They also did a good job of citing the quotations and their claims throughout the text. I would not make many changes if any to this article.

Option 4

 * Leonor Villegas de Magnón
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This article is pretty short. The author could have created a separate section to give a more in depth analysis of her memoir instead of inserting a few lines into the "Career" section of the article.

Option 5

 * Williams Carlos Williams
 * Article Evaluation:
 * This is a very detailed and well organized article. I like how the author divided the article up into many sub-categories instead of just grouping a bunch of information under one umbrella. The author did a great job of discussing and analyzing Williams' many poems.
