[edit]

Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

[edit]
Article title
Radio Recombination Lines
Article Evaluation
This article does not exist! There are tons of papers written about this, with many observations of them. This is an important piece of Astronomy that is missing on Wikipedia and would be beneficial to include.
Sources
Radio Recombination Lines - M.A. Gordon , R.L. Sorochenko [1]:Cosmological Observations of RRL [2]:

Option 2

[edit]
Article title
Lyman-alpha blob
Article Evaluation
This article has mostly older citations, and nearly every citation comes at the end of the article where the blobs are simply listed out. The remaining information about the blobs are drawn from 2 articles, reducing the breadth of content. This article can be improved with additional citations, creating a well-rounded and complete article.
Sources
Dynamics of blobs [3]:Blobs in Simulations [4]:

Option 3

[edit]
Article title
Giant Void
Article Evaluation
This article is not written using neutral language, including statements like "Inside this vast void" and "the WMAP cold spot is dwarfed by this void." Along with this, there are very few citations and the existing ones are old.
Sources
Would need help finding sources for this, as "Giant Void" is not easy to track down!
