Option 1

[edit]
Article title
Mary Garrett
Article Evaluation
Mary Garrett was a suffragist who donated a large sum of money to the Johns Hopkins Medical School under the condition that female students are treated the same as males.
The article is part of three WikiProjects, and was listed as a stub for one and rated C-class for the other two. The general organization of the article flowed well, but there could be some improvements to the references. It showed a lot of reliance on sources published by the Johns Hopkins University Press and the Johns Hopkins Magazine, across multiple sections, which could potentially have bias.

Option 2

[edit]
Article title
Thomas Stephen Cullen
Article Evaluation
Thomas Stephen Cullen was a gynecologist from Canada, who studied at Johns Hopkins University and at a German laboratory, then returned to Hopkins to work as the professor of clinical gynecology. This article is rated stub. It contains very little information with only one reference. It could be significantly improved by adding information on his early life and career, as well as expand upon his research and student opinions or assessment as a professor at Hopkins.

Option 3

[edit]
Article title
Defibrillation
Article Evaluation
While there seems to be a lot of various information related to defibrillation, this article has poor organization and rated as C-class. It is divided into six different sections, with some lacking significant amount of information (mechanism of action) and two main sections (types and history of defibrillation) overlapping in content. In addition, there is only a very brief mention of William Kouwenhoven who invented the first external defibrillation device that we know of today, with no citations associated with it.

Option 4

[edit]
Article title
The Henry Phipps Psychiatric Clinic
Article Evaluation
The Henry Phipps Psychiatric Clinic was a new section of the Johns Hopkins Hospital named after Henry Phipps, who donated $1.5 million to fund psychiatry as William Welch requested.
Rated as a Start class, the content of the article lacks information on the actual running of the clinic and focuses too heavily on how it was founded and its development. While there is a long list of notable faculty and directors, there is no elaboration of their important work. This article could be significantly improved by the addition of updated information and more pictures relevant to the clinic.

Option 5

[edit]
Article title
Max Brödel
Article Evaluation
Max Brodel was a medical illustrator who drew works of many well-known clinicians at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, developed the carbon dust technique, and became the first director of the Department of Art as Applied to Medicine, which exists even until today. The article is rated as C-class, as the organization of this article is very poor - information could be grouped in a more efficient way for better understanding. It also needs newer references and I think it would be good to add information about the Max Brodel's influence on the current Department of Art as Applied to Medicine at Hopkins.
