User:Akathm612/Article Evaluation

I decided to evaluate the Wikipedia page titled Self-care deficit nursing theory for this assignment. This article describes this theory developed by Dorothea Orem in the late 1900's. In this evaluation I noticed there is not much detail on this page regarding the theory, only a basic overview of the topic. The page did note that this theory is also referred to as Orem's Model of Nursing but this was not linked to another page with more information. And when searching for this term instead, no Wikipedia page existed yet. One internal page was cited to redirect to the internal page for Registered nurse but the link was not correct and when clicked it stated that the page was redirected from a different link. Looking at the reference list at the bottom of the Self-care deficit nursing theory page, I noticed a variety of scholarly article, University collections, an open source website, a book, and an educational service related to nursing. Although these references were mentioned, not many citations were in the text of the writing itself. There is even some material in quotation marks that is not appropriately cited. Looking at the page history, the page was last edited in December of 2016 and April of 2016. In December of 2016 it looks like the editor deleted examples used to describe the Self-Care Requisites. I am curious to why this was deleted as this was an interesteing addition to help explain this aspect of the topic. On the Talk page it mentions how this article is included as part of the Nursing WikiProject. In addition the Talk page of this topic revealed that based on a review of the Nursing WikiProject, this article was classified as low importance.
