About me

My name is Alyssa, and I'm 21 years old. I'm in the process of continuing my journey within the healthcare field to become a nurse. It has always been an aspiration of mine to be at the bedside and provide care for those in need hence why I currently work as a certified nursing assistant. Upon doing some research, hospitals are very short-staffed, and according to a survey done by Washington State Hospital Association, "hospitals alone need to hire an additional 6,100 nurses to meet current staffing needs." I'm looking to broaden my capabilities and usefulness to be able to assist patients and staff especially during these desperate times of need in patient care and hope to be a part of the solution.

My Wikipedia Interests

In times of volunteering when working on content, I'd find myself assisting primarily with grammar, for I enjoy proofreading and making corrections to improve the clarity of content. I also hope to accomplish providing accurate information through fact checking other credible sources to segregate out any falsity from the facts.

Article Evaluation

I’ve taken up binge-watching Shameless for the 3rd time now, and I am absolutely hooked. The series has an eclectic variety of characters, but Carl Gallagher (portrayed by Ethan Cutkosky) has always been and continues to be a personal favorite as he goes through many phases of character development over the span of this show. I visited the Ethan Cutkosky article on Wikipedia and found three aspects of it worth commenting on: dead links, irrelevant sections, and missing information.

Dead Links

I reviewed the list of sources provided on the Ethan Cutkosky article to determine if they were up to date and remain active for use. There was a total of nine references presented and out of those nine, two were inaccessible. The first dead link was http://prev.dailyherald.com/story/?id=263026 and displayed a “404 Not Found error” when attempting to access. The second dead link was https://apnews.com/5538e7ae1f214d43addc11404f5d5c92 which stated that the “AP News site encountered an error” after making an attempt to load into the site was made.

Irrelevant Sections

While reading this article on Wikipedia, I found a section to be irrelevant to the piece as a whole. An external link about Cutkosky was included that presented itself as unnecessary. Upon reviewing the site https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3103119/, it’s clear that there is no functional purpose for it to be included in this article. The article is linked to the IMDb site that is about Cutkosky, yet it provides no additional outside information for the reader that isn’t already being stated on the Wikipedia page.

Missing Information

The Wikipedia article about Cutkosky is quite limited in regard to the amount of information being provided. There is a shared section that's meant for Cutkosky's “music and model career”, yet there is only information that talks about a clothing brand he started and a song he wrote. This section should include information about his modeling career or the description should be revised to avoid misleading readers.

Conclusion

After reading and evaluating the Ethan Cutkosky article on Wikipedia, there were three evident errors that could be improvised to further improve the article in its entirety. Making sure your sources continue to be accessible for viewing, excluding irrelevant pieces of information that may disorient the reader, and applying necessary detail regarding the subject are all key components that assist with the structure and comprehensibility of any piece of writing.
