 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Simplified Manual of Style
 * Hi Ibertens. You should be able to edit the "Personal life" section to add that information, with an appropriate reliable source; you might not have been able to do that before because you hadn't yet hit the ten-edit mark, at which point your account became autoconfirmed (the details of which aren't really important). On your second question: when you hit "edit" at the top of the page, the code for the box should appear first thing in the edit window, above the article text. Just look for the line where the old principal appears, and replace it with the new one. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:31, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Gene patents
I was just wondering if your addition to the general Patents article wouldn't be better placed in a Gene patents article (currently a redirect to Gene patents in the United States) or somewhere similar. As is, it seems like in inaccurate section title and the information about the specific company and patents seems like WP:UNDUE focus for the article which is intending to represent the worldwide subject of all patents.

Wikipedia Education Program: student survey!
Hi! I work with the Wikipedia Education Program, and I'm hoping to get your feedback about your experience this semester! In order to help other students like you enjoy editing while contributing positively to Wikipedia, it would be very helpful to hear from real program students about their experience, so we know what to change. The survey takes no more than 10 minutes, and I'd really appreciate your response!

Thanks so much! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 22:31, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
