Hello, 8712NeuroBio, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Yunshui, and I am your Online Ambassador for Dr Mynlieff's Neurobiology course. My job here is to help you work within Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, to answer any questions that you have about editing here, and to act as your advocate in the (unlikely) event that you find yourself in a dispute with another user.

You are welcome to contact me at any time by leaving a message on my Wikipedia talkpage or by emailing me. I will respond to any messages within 24 hours (though I aim to be faster!), but if you need more immediate help, you can ask questions of experienced editors at The Teahouse or get live help via Wikipedia's IRC channel (connect here).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• Introduction to Wikipedia
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• Simplified Manual of Style

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. Once again, if you need help with any aspect of Wikipedia, please just ask; it's what I'm here for. Enjoy your course! Yunshui 雲‍水 09:29, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

Note from instructor

8721Neurobio, don't forget to add an image to your userpage.--MMBiology (talk) 23:53, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations on navigating the complexities of images on Wikipedia to successfully place a picture on your userpage. If you want a bit more information on image use and formatting here, check out this short essay. Best of luck with the half-marathon; I tried one of those myself once. Exhausting, but rather exhilarating at the same time. Wouldn't try it again though, not now I'm all middle-aged and chubby... Yunshui 雲‍水 11:23, 31 January 2013 (UTC) <bre />

Yes I did successfully insert a picture! I'm starting to understand this system. This will be my first half- marathon I'm pretty excited to give it a try! Thank you for your support 8712NeuroBio (talk) 23:46, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
