Article issues

Hi Shachinthaka and @Js2933:. Very nice work on your articles, but it looks to me like you both created articles about the same topic. As far as I can tell Leucine-rich repeat receptor like protein kinase PEPR1 and PEPR1 and PEPR2. If this is the case, you need to work together to combine your articles into one single article. If it isn't the case, you need to ensure that your articles are about distinct topics, with little overlap. Please get in touch with me if you need further assistance with this.

@Ian (Wiki Ed):, we were assigned two different articles to work on as part of the assignment. PEPR1 and PEPR2 focus on the proteins themselves, while I think Leucine-rich repeat receptor like protein kinase PEPR1 focuses on different aspects of PEPR 1. The two articles are two separate assignments in our class. I'm not sure there is any way for us to combine them. Js2933 (talk) 16:15, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

@Js2933: Thanks for the clarification! Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:02, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
