Option 1

Article Title

Numbered Treaties

Article Evaluation

Strong article. Contains a lot of info, images and a well organized table. Covers both facts about the treaties as well as the social aspect. References are reliable sources and have working links. Slightly more could be added about the historic indigenous point of view/understanding.

Option 2

Article Title

Treaty

Article Evaluation

Lengthy article. Contains a lot of complex information and relevant references. The article is well organized, something very important for an article of this size. However, in the section devoted to Treaties and Indigenous Peoples, there is no reference to Canada and it's history.

Option 3

Article Title

Feminist Foreign Policy

Article Evaluation

The article is easy to read and includes relevant information. However, it is lacking information and images as a whole. In particular, there is no reference to Canada and its feminist foreign policy. This article has the potential to be strong, with the addition of more content.
