Welcome!
Hello, Jrxijown, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:48, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

H5N1 flu
Hi there, I've reluctantly undone your edit on the H5N1 page. 2 reasons

1. The subject of your edit was preparedness, the section heading is Treatment. The section needs update, sure, the Roche reference from 2006 is bound to be out of date and it probably doesn't belong in this section anyway. Maybe it would be appropriate to add a new section on preparedness?

2. Your edit was specific to the US, but you didn't make this clear. There are stockpiles in other countries too - we don't have room for a full list, and keeping it up to date would be a pain. Check out Americentrism!

I have a plan to generally update this page sometime but I haven't got round to it yet.

Sorry about this, please don't be discouraged. Wikipedia needs good editors! Bob (talk) 07:55, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Alzheimer's disease
Hi. I noticed that you assigned yourself the Alzheimer's disease article to work on. This article is a Good Article, so it's some of Wikipedia's best work. In addition, it's a medical topic, which has special sourcing requirements. For these two reasons, I think this would be a difficult article for you to work on as a new editor, and I strongly recommend picking a different article.

 * I also noticed that you have selected the skin cancer article to work on. Since this is a human health-related topic, I wanted to let you know that topics related to human health have more stringent sourcing requirements than most articles on Wikipedia. Please take the Editing health and psychology topics training module before you work on this article. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:39, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know. I'll fix them as soon as I can. Jrxijown (talk) 22:21, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
