Ask 1, 3 and 4.

- Is the topic interesting or relevant for today’s reader? — Yes. Audience relevance helps you shape and justify the thesis.
- What is my point of view on the topic? — Yes. A thesis states your position or claim.
- Is anyone else writing about this topic in the same way? — Yes. Knowing how others treat the topic helps you make your thesis original and situate it.

“Can the topic be covered in three to four paragraphs?” is not a useful question for developing a thesis itself; it’s a question about assignment length and scope and should be adjusted to your specific task.
