Welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Battykin! Thank you for your contributions. I am Hillelfrei and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Hillelfrei ^{• talk •} 21:10, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hillelfrei Thank you very much! I will probably come to you when I need help! :) Battykin (talk) 04:40, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Battykin: Great :) Hillelfrei ^{• talk •} 05:01, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hillelfrei Hello again! Would you be able to help me move my userboxes to the right side like a sidebar? Battykin (talk) 21:41, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Battykin: This code should work. You can add as many userboxes as you want, I just did three as an example. Let me know if there are any problems.

{{userboxtop | align = right | textcolor = black | toptext = '''About this user''' }} {{USERBOX1}} {{USERBOX1}} {{USERBOX3}} {{userboxbottom}}

Good luck, Hillelfrei ^{• talk •} 00:43, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hillelfrei Thank you so much! It worked :) However, do you know how I can get half of the userboxes to be on the right of the other half so the list isn't so long downwards? I have seen other users have two per row. Battykin (talk) 03:10, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again @Battykin: Keep the top the same. Add the code below right under the top, and then put your userboxes evenly in col1 and col2.

I also recommend you put {{userboxbottom}} at the very bottom so that if you ever put anything under it in the future, it won't mess the whole thing up.

Let me know if there's anything else I can help with. -- Hillelfrei ^{• talk •} 04:19, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hillelfrei Thanks for all your help! I tried to do what you wrote as far as adding the columns and the bottom closing, it just didn't work :/ Would you be able to edit my page for me or is that not allowed? I would just like the first 10 boxes in one column and the other 10 next to it. If not, I'll just leave it be! Thanks again :) Battykin (talk) 18:23, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Battykin: Done, let me know if there's anything else I can do. Hillelfrei ^{• talk •} 18:41, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hillelfrei Thank you very much! You've been much helpful! I appreciate it :) Will let you know in the future if I need more help. Have a good day. Battykin (talk) 18:55, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia and Wikiproject Medicine

Welcome to Wikipedia! We have compiled some guidance for new healthcare editors:

Please keep the mission of Wikipedia in mind. We provide the public with accepted knowledge, working in a community.
We do that by finding high quality secondary sources and summarizing what they say, giving WP:WEIGHT as they do. Please do not try to build content by synthesizing content based on primary sources.
Please use high-quality, recent, secondary sources for medical content (see WP:MEDRS; for the difference between primary and secondary sources, see the WP:MEDDEF section.) High-quality sources include review articles (which are not the same as peer-reviewed), position statements from nationally and internationally recognized bodies (like CDC, WHO, FDA), and major medical textbooks. Lower-quality sources are typically removed. Please beware of predatory publishers – check the publishers of articles (especially open source articles) at Beall's list.
The ordering of sections typically follows the instructions at WP:MEDMOS. The section above the table of contents is called the WP:LEAD. It summarizes the body. Do not add anything to the lead that is not in the body. Style is covered in MEDMOS as well; we avoid the word "patient" for example.
We don't use terms like "currently", "recently," "now", or "today". See WP:RELTIME.
More generally see WP:MEDHOW, which gives great tips for editing about health -- for example, it provides a way to format citations quickly and easily
Citation details are important:
- Be sure to cite the PMID for journal articles and ISBN for books
- Please include page numbers when referencing a book or long journal article, and please format citations consistently within an article.
- Do not use URLs from your university library that have "proxy" in them: the rest of the world cannot see them.
- Reference tags generally go after punctuation, not before; there is no preceding space.
We use very few capital letters (see WP:MOSCAPS) and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
Common terms are not usually wikilinked; nor are years, dates, or names of countries and major cities. Avoid overlinking!
Never copy and paste from sources; we run detection software on new edits.
Talk to us! Wikipedia works by collaboration at articles and user talkpages.

Once again, welcome, and thank you for joining us! Please share these guidelines with other new editors.
