Welcome!

Hello, Immcarle4, 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.

You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:16, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Sourcing

Thanks for your addition to the booster dose article. I noticed, however, that in this edit you used "www.babycenter.in" as your source for information. I took a look at that website's About Us page and it does not appear to be the sort of high-quality source that you should be using. You should be looking for things like review articles in the peer-reviewed immunology literature, or textbooks. This is especially important when dealing with biomedical information. Please take a look at Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) and keep those recommendations in mind when editing. Thanks, and happy editing.
