The Pathologist, you are invited to the Teahouse!

 * Dear Rosie, thank you so much for the invitation! I have made a self introduction at the Teahouse, using a picture I took in Spring 2011, weeks after the Great East Japan Earthquake, in an area of Sendai that was not affected by the tsunami. I will make sure to look at the pages for help. Cheers! The Pathologist (talk) 01:12, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia, I hope you're settling in here and enjoying it. Some software that we run to keep ourselves honest has detected that some of your added text on ADPK is closely paraphrased from the paper by Paul BM et al. While it can be challenging to do, it is nonetheless necessary to avoid this and use original wording for published ideas. I've left it in place for now, but please address this. If you need assistance, the folks at wt:WPMED are very helpful. LeadSongDog come howl!  22:00, 21 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Dear LeadSongDog, thank you for your contact, and for kindly pointing out my miss in the text. I wrote most parts of the article from memory based on the references, but I may well have failed to satisfactorily edit parts of reference-based text after trying to modify it while at the same time trying to keep it understandable. If possible, I would like to kindly ask you or any one who might be willing to do so to please correct any fault like the one above that might be found in my editions. I will make sure to pay more attention to this issue so that it doesn't happen in the future, and I may contact the wt:WPMED as soon as I figure out how to communicate with them. Again, many thanks.
