About me
I'm an international student from Vietnam and currently studying at a community college in the US. I have been to America for 2 years and everything have been pretty awesome. I have never experienced racism even though I heard that many asians got racist here. One of the reasons I decided to study abroad in the US is that I had an awesome senior year in high school as an exchange student. I had an amazing host family. Every single teacher in my high school was so nice. They always asked me if I had any troubles in class and would do anything to make sure I could be my best in class. They said that this was my first year in the US especially as an exchange student and everything might be difficult to me so they wanted me to have my best first experience there. Also, I made a lot of great friends here. I still kept in touch with them and I definitely will go back to visit one day. One more thing about me: my major is nursing. Beside many reasons for me to choose to be a nurse, income is an important one: register nurses have a pretty good income. However, my final destination will be nurse practitioner which will take longer (4-7 years).

My Wikipedia Interests
I often use Wikipedia as a source of information for my research; however, I never work on anything in here or even fix anything from others. If I end up working on content here over a long term, I will probably do about nursing which is my current major. I want to know as much information about nursing as possible which will be so helpful for my future. I hope that my post about nursing can help anyone who also have a desire for nursing knowing more about it and especially I would like to receive opinions from ones who have experienced in this career, but I will only accept a fact or a truthful opinions.

Article evaluation
As my current major is nursing, I really want to have a deeper understanding of nursing. However, nursing is a pretty big topic and it will definitely be hard to cover all of its aspects. I want to narrow it down by focusing on finding more information about Nurse Practitioner which is my final destination. Also, I did do much research about nurse practitioners for my English class's career research last year in high school. Therefore, I visited the Nurse Practitioner page on Wikipedia and found three aspects of it worth commenting on: citations, age, and structure.

Age
Since I am paying attention to the nurse practitioner topic so I know the salary has been changed compared between 2015-2016 and 2019-2020. Recently, the average Nurse Practitioner salary in the United States is $108,442 as of January 20, 2020, but the range typically falls between $100,624 and $117,804, but the article on Wikipedia is not up-to-date with the salary. It may not seem like a big change to the salary, but they need to add those changes to catch up with the latest update. It is very important not to leave the article outdated because Wikipedia is the first website most people will look for information.

Structure
The article doesn't cover all of the important information and the ideas throughout is very scattered. I want to see more different aspects of the article. Education requirements are very helpful for students like me; however, rather than getting from sources that are biased and seemed not reliable, it should be collected from more neutral sources with reliable statistics such as government sites, university sites.

Summary
All in all, I think this page has a lot of problems to fix and I do not think all the information is accurate. Although there are many citations in sections, all the sources that have been gathered were either a person's opinions or information from other non-reliable sources, so it is very difficult to identify credible sources. I think that a well-informed article should always be up-to-date with correct information from primary reliable researches.
