Option 1

Article title
Negrophilia
Article Evaluation
I have already reviewed this article in the previous assignment. its main problems are:
- Opinionated prose without references
- Few quality sources
- Limited historical scope (due to limited sourcing)
- Talk page editors call for more content
- Start-class article

Option 2

Article title
Victor Séjour
Article Evaluation
Overall a well written albeit short S-Class article. Generally in need of enrichment:
- Could use reorganization of sections
- The biography section could better place the subject in the historical literary context of Louisiana
- Could use more historical sources
- Seems to have no talk threads which tells me that it was a single-editor project.

Option 3

Article title
Code Noir
Article Evaluation
A well written overview of generalized code noir laws that could be developed and added to. I would propose these possible additions:
- Add translations of parts of the French wiki page that further develop the brief sections of the English page
- Add historical context to Code Noir's expulsion of jews from all territories
- Add sources from the French page as well as new sources
- Develop legal antecedents and history of the Code
- Develop historical territorial differences and amendments to the Code Noir

Option 4

Article title
Council for the Development of French in Louisiana
Article Evaluation
A good article providing a basic overview of the CODOFIL organization. I would propose these additions:
- Add historical/political context for the creation of a language-revival organization in LA
- Discuss affiliate organizations like Tele-Louisiane and IciOnParleFrancais
- Develop current projects like bilingual schools etc

Article Evaluation
Good overview article in French on the French wiki on the Revue nègre show. I would propose to translate the article into English and develop certain sections. I propose to:
