  1. Modern social statistics of Native Americans - This article is part of the WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America and is rated High-Importance, C-Class. This is a very broad topic, but it could give me good background information regarding the population of people I will be working with. The history of the issues that the project is attempting to work on. The article definitely could use some work editing/adding more information.
  2. Ukiah, California - This article is part of a WikiProject California and is rated: Mid-importance and Start-Class; therefore, it would be an ideal candidate for further editing. The article has well-defined sections, but it could use more depth in each section. Under "History" and "Notable People" there is a remarkable lack of mention of the involvement of Native Americans in the regions history.
  3. Rancho Yokaya - This article is also part of a WikiProject California and is rated: Mid-importance and Start-Class; therefore, it would be an ideal candidate for further editing. The article is far from complete, needs a lot more information and clarity. This would be an interesting article to edit because it involves the land that the Pomo nation currently/in the past inhabited, but they are not mentioned at all. How has American land been viewed, negotiated, privatized?

  1. Native American disease and epidemics - This article is part of the WikiProject WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America and rated high-importance, C-Class. This is a pretty broad topic so it may be difficult to narrow down research. However, the section on "combating disease and epidemic" would be ideal to work on for Sector because it outlines all of the different approaches that have been taken to address healthcare issues amongst Native American populations. It could definitely use some more information.
  2. Hackerspace - This article is part of WikiProject Technology and is rated C-Class, which means that substantial editing is still needed. It is higher level than Stub/Start, so there may be less work to do. However, the article seems pretty incomplete overall. Lots of good subsections, but not enough references/sources.
  3. Community health center - This article is part of the WikiProject Hospitals and is rated high-importance, Start-Class. As of now, the article is very scattered and incomplete with only a few examples. This is potentially another broad topic, but would be applicable to my PE. I could examine different models of community healthcare organization, cultural sensitivity etc...
