Option 1

[edit]
Adverse drug reaction
Article Evaluation

- poorly written, confusing language for audience, also confused content--needs to be cleaned up in terms of content and presentation of info.

- given above, need to be able to clearly delineate in layman-accessible language adverse drug rxn from similar-sounding terms like adverse drug event, adverse event. seems like possibly a heavily trafficked topic, therefore larger burden of responsibility.

Option 2

[edit]
Nicotine replacement therapy
Article Evaluation

- loose and biased writing with disorganized presentation that may be difficult for avg reader to follow. maybe some outdated content as well, and a dearth of reliable citations.

- seems like a lot of room to fill in gaps and fortify existing info

Option 3

[edit]
Nicotine gum
Article Evaluation

- friendlier editing/research process due to self-contained nature of topic (vs the more broad topic of NRT)--enough material to ensure robust learning experience, but not be too daunting for a first go.

- few sources, biased POV, lack of sections and speculative writing. again could use major makeover in terms of content and presentation of info.
