Working in Wikipedia
Hi CountBorgula. You seem to have some expertise in DNA digital data storage. Please do read WP:EXPERT, and as you are new to Wikipedia, please do read the links above, or perhaps have a read of User:Jytdog/How, which I put together to give new users a single page to read to learn what our mission is and how the editing community tries to realize it. The bottom line is that this is a crowdsourced encyclopedia - what we do here is summarize secondary sources. Research papers are primary sources. While experts are very accustomed to writing reviews where they select and assemble primary sources into a narrative, that is not what we do here for a bunch of reasons. If you have a read of the "how" link and the Expert essay, this will, I hope, make sense to you. I realize it seems strange. Jytdog (talk) 12:03, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
