Adopt-a-user
Hello. This is a courtesy note to inform you that I have removed the "adopt me" template from your User page. You have not been active on Wikipedia for some time (Sep 2016). Its presence misleads others into thinking that you are still seeking to be adopted and to be guided by another editor under the Adopt-a-user scheme. Obviously, you are completely free to reinsert it if you return to active editing and want to seek adoption again. (Just 'undo' my edit in the history of your user page to put it back). For simple questions about editing, just ask any of us at The Teahouse. Regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 12:15, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

Hi thanks for the message. I'm having trouble finding more outside media on this institute. The home page doesn't have much more information on work produced through this group. Still new to editing, so i appreciate the tip. Petersoapes (talk) 03:29, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
