Hello, Juliaczar, 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.

Hi! My name is Grace- I'm a student at Northeastern University in Boston. I'm from Connecticut so I'm familiar with UConn! I'm currently in a writing class where one of our projects is to edit a Wikipedia article. I am planning on doing Section 3.1 on the Microplastics page. I'm planning on adding info about microplastic effects on bivalves. I'm also planning to add a bit in the microfiber, nanoplastics, and organic pollutants sections. I saw that you're also doing a project with this article. Are you planning on doing any of the same sections or topics? Just want to make sure we don't overlap on our projects. Thanks!

Hi Grace. I am planning on contributing to section 3 as well. I am trying to integrate 3.3 into 3.1, creating a new subheading for contaminant uptake in marine organisms. I will not be specifically adding content about bivalves, so I don't think we will be overlapping too much. Good luck! @Gpappy: Juliaczar (talk) 21:03, 8 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
