Hello, CDOcean, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; 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 complete the student training, 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.

Article Choice

edit

HI CDOcean!

I was reviewing your article choice and think you have made an interesting selection. There is a lot of promise in expanding this article and I can see how it would be nice to have more detail on the page. I hope you are considering alternate keywords as you search for supporting documentation that will help you write your article. I did a quick search for "segment polarity gene" in the catalog and did not find much that was easy to wade through! This will be a fun topic to try to delve into and find credible literature!

@Saguaromelee: Thanks for the encouragement because I was thinking about possibly switching topics. I will definitely pursue this, even if I have to ask some of the professors on campus about it. CDOcean (talk) 17:59, 17 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
