1.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrastructure
I chose this article on wikipedia because it has multiple issues that do not share a world view on what infrastructure is. I also know that I can add more information to what infrastructure is in the architectural sense.
2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_segregation
I chose this article to edit because there are many cases in the world that have solid evidence of age segregation. I believe that I can expand this page and explore both what it is and why it exists through sources.
3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_action_(sociology)
This article stands out to me, I am choosing it as a possible article to edit because I can observe this both in the real world and text. Cases of group action exist all through history and in visible cases that can be found in texts.I feel like I can be passionate about this one. I also believe there have been a good amount if studies and writing done for this subject.
4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_society_(social_class)
I would really enjoy exploring this topic and explore what different definitions of high society are though out the world. Which countries have more or less what is considered "high society" and how much of that society plays a role in big decision making. This is a very interesting topic that, like mentioned, can be merged to make it an even more intriguing article. Austindmorales (talk) 15:39, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

For group action I wanted to add cases where historically there is evidence of group action taking place. In most activism movements there is group action involved. There are women’s activists and there are moments in history where people take action in the environmental sense like the first earth day in 1970 where a large number of people suddenly worked together and marched to realize that they are not alone in this want for environmental change. I also wanted to focus on how group action can be achieved through certain organizations and how they can shift a demographics point of view to take action. I also wanted to focuses on the practice of group action within law making and how it takes group action within the judicial system to later create a new ideal for society due to the implication of law.

For this article I want to add information on what infrastructural systems are like in different parts of the world on not just America. I also want to add cases of major infrastructural failure; I feel this may not be a good choice, especially for the Wikipedia space. I also wanted to add information on different types of infrastructure, it would focuses on major governmental projects, everyday architectural infrastructure, as well as energy infrastructure, which is how energy and resources are shared within metropolitan and towns all over the world. I am also on the hunt for information on maintenance and the average life span of modern day infrastructures. I also want to add info about old infrastructure, like the coliseums and Greek buildings like the pantheon and Parthenon.

For this article, I wanted to add more information. I wanted to add information on cases where members of high society have received better treatment than those from lower society. I also wanted to create a portion that focuses on what high society is made up of and how it affects America, in the sense that they are big decision makers and have more say in what happens in the world naturally through higher rank. I also wanted to focuses on this history of the high society in America and where it rests today. Much of the old money that was made in America has carried generations today and allows them to continue to be in high society. I want to ad facts about some examples of high society families that have roots deep in American past. I also wanted to look and add information that focuses on what it means socially to be part of high society, how their culture is and how they carry themselves. How high society interacts and connects to lower society and what role they play in lower societies life.
