Option 1

[edit]
Article title: Runaway Production
Article Evaluation:
This article is rated as a c-class meaning there is work to be done. The talk page is incredibly active with various lengthy posts about different sections of the article. Most of the work that needs to be done is in trimming or editing things already within the article, not in adding new information.

Option 2

[edit]
Article title: Product placement
Article Evaluation:
This article is rated a c-class. This article has good information in it generally but is oversaturated and requires a significant amount of reorganizing. There are 237 sources which I feel is to a point of excess in an article which does not need to cover as much as this currently does.
