My selected articles for potential editing:

I wanted my articles to focus on the research question: "What effect does diet have on migraines?" Not only do I believe this is an interesting and controversial discussion, but I also have a personal interest in this issue as I'm prone to migraines. All of my selected Wikipedia articles relate to migraines and therefore piqued my interest. They also each have areas where a discussion about diet's effect on migraines can be included.
The first article briefly discusses diet under its "Behavioral Treatments" section; I believe this discussion can be expanded. The article doesn't garner significant traffic but still appears to be edited often. The second article discusses dietary aspects of migraines under a sections titled "Dietary aspects." Currently, the section is only a few sentences. This article is edited often and garners a significant amount of traffic (100,000+ in the last month). For the third article, I believe a discussion on nutrition can fit under the "Non-drug preventive treatment" section. The article's revision and view statistics are comparable to that of the first article.
I looked through the New York Times health section as well as Google's search results for my preliminary searching. This searching was based on the topic of migraines. As I wanted to relate it to nutrition, I looked for relevant and controversial discussions about migraines that also related to nutrition. Throughout my search, I found articles drawing correlations between migraines and a plethora of different phenomena. Some examples include: alcohol causing migraines, migraines increasing the risk of heart attacks, and various foods being migraine triggers. My search eventually led me to my primary research question after finding a rich and widely discussed discussion on the relation between foods and migraines.
I did not have to make changes to my selected articles as they are all edited often. However, I was surprised by how briefly nutrition was discussed in each article despite nutrition and migraines appearing to be a rich discussion topic in my preliminary searches.
