Welcome! edit
Welcome to Wikipedia, Nicodetr! I am NuclearWarfare and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

Hello Nicodetr! Thanks for improvements to and comment at ARNTL. There are very few editors on English WP who know or care anything about circadian rhythms, and even fewer who have formal (medical or scientific) training in the field. It appears to me that you are a much-needed editor here; Welcome!
I have no such training, but a strong interest. (I also have a Circadian Rhythm Disorder, CRD.) When I started editing here and added to an article that there are three, not two, types of photosensitive cells in our retina, I was "told off" by an active medical editor: WP is not the place to promote original research and pet projects. So I learned to add good references and have had no such problems since, but I've seen that there is little knowledge here, probably because the field is new and rapidly developing.
Despite my lack of pertinent education, I've recently added myself to this list: Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine/Participants, where there was no one listing sleep or circadian among their areas of interest, and just one mentioning chronobiology. There are no particular requirements, except for interest. The point of this long comment is to suggest that you, too, might want to list your name there. Again, welcome! --Hordaland (talk) 11:02, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
- Hello Hordaland! Thanks for your kind message and for the suggestion. I will check this. Yes I could add my name there, although I am not sure that I have much time to give to this. And my expertise may actually better fit the more biological or basic science WikiProjects. Regards, --Nicodetr (talk) 00:53, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
