Cmbakwe
My name is Christine Mbakwe and I am interested in health, especially the areas of biological security/bioterrorism and disease control. I am also developing a growing interest in medical journalism and narrative medicine. I hope to contribute to discussions about the relationships between genes and the emergence of diseases and how an understanding of this relationship can impact research on therapeutic strategies and developments.
Welcome!

Disambiguation link notification for September 27
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Osmia rufa, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Labral. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Osmia rufa
edit
Nice work on the Osmia rufa article. I wonder if you would like to consider submitting it as a candidate for the "Did you know...?" feature. DYKs (as they are commonly called) are short snippets taken from Wikipedia's newest articles and, if approved, appear on the Main Page. You can learn more about this by clicking on the image to the right to access a nice pdf outlining the process.
Since your 5x expansion of the article started on the 24th, you need to nominate the article for DYK soon, if you intend to do so, since there is only a 7-day window for nominations. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:49, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
