 Tips
  • Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
  • It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
  • If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
  • Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
  • When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
  • If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
  • Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.
Hello GenQuest!
My name is Anja. I would like to become a contributing member of the Wikipedia community. I am a science writer and have spent some time looking for a topic that would make for a good first article. I think I found it. I think an article on the microscopy technology called MINFLUX would be a great addition. I have searched Wikipedia and saw that MINFLUX is mentioned in two articles - briefly on the article about Kinesin, a protein that was recently tracked with MINFLUX, and more extensively on the page of Francisco Balzarotti, the first author on the scientific publication that introduced the technology in 2017. I wrote up something with over 30 references (mostly scientific articles) and was thinking I would create a draft of my wiki article to submit for review. Is that a good approach? I have read through the tutorial and the manual of style.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
