Writing Rubric - Status Update

The argument is worth making.
Since it has kept me up a lot of nights and is all over academic and popular writing, yes, I think the argument is worth making.
The writer has tried to arrange the writing in line with purpose and audience.
The latest draft accomplishes this much better than the first three, and somewhat better than the fourth.
The style effectively supports the proposal, argument and reading comprehension.
I changed the style to be a little more informal when I decided to include parents in my audience.
The argument and examples work together.
They do, and provide some ways the theories are being applied, and why.
All sources are cited appropriately.
I think so. MLA style.
There is evidence of revision. 
Yep. Five so far and there will be probably be a sixth.
Given the revision, grammar and mechanics are right.
I think so.

Additional Criterion:
Risk
The risk I took was in essentially junking what I thought was a good paper to go back to the invention stage and pretty much start over with a whole new point of view.

Extra Credit.
I had absolutely no intention to use "bubbler" in my work. It just happened, and there it is. Kismet.
