Option 1:
[edit]- Article title: Conservation movement
- Grade: C-Class
- Article Evaluation: This article is well-developed. As I read through, the article touches on the history of the conservation movement, the tie between racism and the movement, different approaches, and areas of concern. Each of these sections is easy to read and cites reliable sources, but the tone in a few passages is slightly unneutral. If I were to add to this article, I would add an area of concern relating to the United States and the environmental policy and politics in the regions mentioned.

Option 2
[edit]- Article title: Greenwashing
- Grade: C-Class
- Article Evaluation: This article includes a descriptive overview that introduces the topic, what it is, and why it is practiced. The Characteristics section lists characteristics that are helpful for the reader to understand further what greenwashing is, but these are taken almost directly from its sources. The History and Example sections are well-developed and detailed. If I were to add anything to this article, I would add the stances of both political and environmental movements on greenwashing.

Option 3
[edit]- Article title: Political positions of the Republican Party (United States)
- Grade: C-Class
- Article Evaluation: This article is well-developed and includes a section on the Republican Party's stance on the environment. If I were to add anything to this article, I would expand on this section and add examples of their policies as well as the stances of notable Republican figures today. I would also expand on the views of current Republican party members.
