This project shouldn't be too complicated for this article. The bulk of the article is interviews with experts in the field and references to research that's been done. The one point where the article struggles is where the author uses a personal experience, which clashes with a previous focus on expert opinion. Overall, I don't think I should struggle too badly with this project.
