Option 1

[edit]
Article title: Ojibwe
Article Evaluation:
In English, this article's content seems to be neutrally written and related to the topic at hand, and there are over fifty cited sources, of which the 10 I checked seemed reliable; I find it easy to assume that the vast majority or all of the sources are reliable. This article also, in covering an indigenous group, tackles one of Wikipedia's equity gaps. In Portuguese, while the content is neutrally written and related to the topic of the article, there is far less content and far fewer sources, making it feel incomplete next to the English version of the article.

Option 2

[edit]
Article title: Assiniboine
Article Evaluation
In English, this article's content seems to be neutrally written and related to the topic at hand; I find it easy to assume that the vast majority or all of the 100+ sources are reliable, as the 5 i checked were reliable. This article tackles one of Wikipedia's equity gaps by discussing a historically underrepresented group. In Portuguese, while the content is neutrally written and related to the topic of the article, there is far less content and far fewer sources, making this interpretation of the Assiniboine feel incomplete next to the English version of the article. However, this version of the article also contains many links and citations to additional readings, which makes me hopeful that someone else is looking to translate more Assiniboine content into Portuguese.

Option 3

[edit]
Article title: Midewiwin
Article Evaluation:
The English version of this article goes extremely in depth with many sources cited and in the bibliography. The content is relevant and it tackles the religion of a historically underrepresented and marginalized group as an "ethnic religion." What intrigues me so much about this article is that there is no Portuguese version of this article, making it ripe for the picking (picking to translate into Portuguese, that is).
