User talk:Wonglilian

Welcome
Hello Wonglilian and welcome to wikipedia. It seems you are really interested in multiple sclerosis and some of your additions to the treatment of multiple sclerosis are potentially very interesting. Moreover, sources you have chosen are usually high quality reviews which is perfect for wikipedia (You might find interesting WP:MEDRS). On the other hand, probably due to being a newcomer you have made several mistakes which should be corrected to maximize the usefulness of your additions, specially since the article you modified is a WP:featured articles, and is therefore considered among the best work in wikipedia. Specially harmful was the copy-and-paste from the abstract of the source to management of acute-attacks section. This is a copyright violation and I had to eliminate it completely. There are also several other minor mistakes that we could correct together so you learn some of the "wikipedia ways" and have a more enjoyable and useful experience here. Contact me here or in my talk page, and I'll try to give you some hints on wikipedia editing. I have been the main contributor the both the multiple sclerosis article and treatment of multiple sclerosis so I am really interested in having the best possible articles, and you could be of great help. However I would kindly ask you that you refrain from editing the article until we (me and you) take a look at your previous edits.

Best regards.--Garrondo (talk) 08:50, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello Garrondo. Thanks for the welcome. I need to clarify a few things first. I am not really that interested in multiple sclerosis as you might think. It's because I have a Wikipedia edit assignment that I need to hand in on treatment of multiple sclerosis. Thank you very much for the warning because I was not aware of the copyright violation. If you could, you can tell me where I went wrong and I would highly appreciate it.

Best regards.––
 * Regarding copyright violation: you cannot copy whole sentences of an abstract and paste them in an article word by word. That is a copyright violation and wikipedia could be accused of holding illegal content.
 * Regarding your assignment: Do you mean a student assignment? Are you from a university? Do you have a course page in wikipedia? Does your teacher have an account?Are there other editors in your assignment? Students are usually discouraged from editing featured articles since it is much harder than other articles since they are usually very developed.
 * In this sense, maybe we could work forward by discussing firstly edits in talk page of the article instead of you directly including them in the article. It is very hard to follow all your edits, check them and correct mistakes in the article.
 * I need some time to do it and comment on your mistakes. As an initial hint: in talk pages write below other's comments and sign (button with pen image in top of editing box).

 * I have reverted your last additions to the research section: they were based in primary articles whereas wikipedia (as any encyclopedia) should be based in secondary sources (in the case of science namely, reviews in peer-reviewed journals). Even for research sections is not uncommon to find reviews on the state of research in different therapies. Use of reviews reduces the risk of giving undue weight to a given investigation or group (See WP:weight). Bests.--Garrondo (talk) 15:33, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
