Welcome! edit

Hello, Abbysiebs, 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.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:05, 27 February 2020 (UTC)Reply


March 2020 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Blood plasma, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.   Ganbaruby!  (remember to ping!) 16:21, 21 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Blood and plasma edit

Sorry, but that content you added, it cannot stand: we're not a manual on how to do things, and the text you added, besides needing secondary sources, did not apply to a global readership. What you can do, and User:Nancy.turley and User:Ian (Wiki Ed) might agree, is to write a new article--Gordon R. Ward, mentioned in the article, is most likely a very notable person. You can write that article, you can even get it on the front page. A quick Google search revealed plenty of sourcing: [1], [2], [3]. Going through JSTOR or some other database, limiting a search for articles in medical journals, will probably generate more. Good luck. Drmies (talk) 16:43, 21 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
