Welcome!

Hello, Mimidescolibris, 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 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.

Copy and pasting

Without being in the edit mode of visual editor does not bring the references over. I have therefore reverted your changes. Please read the bellow with respect to formatting and capital letters. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:49, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia and Wikiproject Medicine

Welcome to Wikipedia. We have compiled some guidance for new healthcare editors:

1. Use high-quality sources for medical content (see WP:MEDRS). High-quality sources include review articles (which are not the same as peer-reviewed), position statements from nationally and internationally recognized bodies (like CDC, WHO, FDA), and major medical textbooks. Lower-quality sources are typically removed.
2. Reference tags generally go after punctuation, not before; there is no preceding space.
3. We use very few capital letters and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
4. Common terms are not usually wikilinked; nor are years, dates, or names of countries and major cities.
5. Do not use URLs from your university library's internal net: the rest of the world cannot see them.
6. Include page numbers when referencing a book or long journal article.
7. Format references consistently within an article and be sure to cite the PMID for journal articles and ISBN for books; see WP:MEDHOW.
8. Never copy and paste from sources; we run detection software on new edits.
9. The ordering of sections typically follows the instructions at WP:MEDMOS.
10. Think carefully before working on featured articles (these have a gold star at top right). It is often hard to improve featured articles.
11. Talk to us! Wikipedia works by collaboration at articles and user talkpages.

Once again, welcome, and thank you for joining us. Please share these guidelines with other new editors.
