Welcome!
Hello, Gabidriller, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor 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. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:57, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

Ageing
Hi, I saw that you picked to edit the article on ageing. I wanted to give you a bit of a head's up on this topic - it's an article that is held under sanctions. What this means is that the article has received quite a bit of attention because of the overall topic of longevity. It also received some attention in the media as well. As such, it is more closely monitored than other articles. Now what this means to you is that anything you add to the article will have to be very neutrally written and have the strongest possible sourcing. Pay very close attention to the reliable source guidelines for medical topics. If anything is removed you will need to discuss the edit on the talk page before re-adding the content.

This doesn't mean that you can't edit and it's not meant to scare you or your peers away from the article - I just wanted to make sure that you were aware of the status of the article prior to editing. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:25, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
