Hello there

Sorry to be the "bearer of bad news" in that I proposed deletion of your article. =( Thanks for your interest in Wikipedia, however. Might you be interested in learning a bit about how to edit? We'd love to have you stay. You could help improve topics such as mastectomy or breast cancer. (Lately I've been working on deep vein thrombosis, dengue fever, and malaria, FYI.) Breast cancer gets about 3600 hits a day: [1]. I could help guide you to get it up to WP:GA or WP:FA standards. We have a group of editors interested in medical topics where we discuss things at WT:MED. Anyhow, best wishes. And feel free to contact me at my talk page if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks again. Biosthmors (talk) 22:12, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi back at you!

I would be happy to learn how to edit and happy to make sure some of the science and medicine stuff is accurate. I will try to look at your talk page over the holidays - it gets crazy busy in the office this time of year. Can you suggest someplace to start so that I can work on my editing skills? is there a book that can explain how things work? I have to say - I am not the most computer savvy person and just getting the Goldilocks article up was a GINORMOUS feat for me. But no hard feelings. You have to do what you have to do. - it is a good procedure and there will be better references eventually. I am presenting it at our national meeting in May. thanks for your feedback.

That sounds great, thanks for the reply. I understand. It's really unfortunate that you put that much work into things just to get a "slap in the face"... Sorry. As for learning, I'll leave a template on your page which should have several links you may find helpful. I'll also be sending you an email. Best! Biosthmors (talk) 15:19, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
