Welcome!

Hello, Bdaines8, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

You can find answers to many student questions in our FAQ.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:30, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Welcome medical student

Hello, Bdaines8 and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project concerning content related to health or medicine. We encourage you to have a look at some advice on assignments, and especially our advice on editing medicine and health topics. If your edits do not meet Wikipedia's sourcing guidelines for medical articles, they may be removed.

Please go through our online training for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. Communicating with other Wikipedians on article or editor talk pages will help you have a better experience.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished!)

I've seen your contributions to Pulmonary edema and want to congratulate you on them, and especially on picking good quality medical sources. Your Talk page editing plan is a bit out of context; you can consider noting what it's about for your fellow editors. If you have a question or need some help, feel free to reach out.

Hey, just a quick note for you and your classmates to say that some of us hang out at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine. You're welcome to join us if it's a subject area that interests you. It's a good place to ask questions about finding good sources for medical content or writing style. Feel free to put the group's page on your watchlist, or stop by to say hello some time.
