Welcome! edit

Hello, Haurissa, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions to American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. Please remember in future that direct quotes from sources must be properly indicated to avoid plagiarism concerns. When in doubt, summarise your source in your own words. Thank you, Keepcalmandcarryon (talk) 16:11, 18 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your question. When quoting text, it is customary to use quotation marks (" ") to indicate the quoted material. Keepcalmandcarryon (talk) 20:20, 19 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Haurissa, thank you for your interest in American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. I kindly ask that you discuss your proposed changes on the article's talk page. Thank you. Keepcalmandcarryon (talk) 19:22, 21 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
I've made a comment on the A4M talk page regarding recent editing patterns. I also explain why reliable sources, i.e. those independent of a controversial organisation, are preferred over trade mags and websites as sources of information. Keepcalmandcarryon (talk) 20:02, 21 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Haurissa, I encourage you to keep in mind that Life Extension Magazine and commercial websites are not independent and reliable sources for American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine. Also, the quote from the New York Times concerning "never growing old" is a direct quote from one of the founders. Keepcalmandcarryon (talk) 14:02, 8 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
