 * Federal Investigation Bureau
 * Article Evaluation
 * The first line is a concise definition of what the agency does.The sources are heavily cited. It seems to be broken up into sections that refer to the prominent role of the FBI in American history. However, there seems to be inaccurate and poorly cited source material when it comes to the media portrayal of the FBI. There also seems to lack information about a topic called "FBI Police". The article is written in a neutral tone overall. All the sources are from databases and different website articles.

Option 2

 * Affirmative Action in the United States
 * Article Evaluation
 * The tone is not neutral. It shows bias favoring affirmative action. Some sections are more fleshed out than others such as the fact that there is very little information about affirmative action during the Reagan administration. Furthermore, it seems as though the article is missing some citations. There are a significant number of claims without any citations. Furthermore, the sections are not organized as well as they could be.

Option 3

 * Anti-Literacy Laws in the United States
 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is not broken up into sections and needs to be further fleshed out. There are no specifics about anti-literacy laws in the United States. There are spelling errors and the first sentence does not accurately reflect what anti-literacy laws are. Some sources are improperly cited in the references section. The tone of this article also does not seem very neutral.
