User talk:Bio201001
Welcome
[edit]Hello, Bio201001, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I notice that one of the first articles you have edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been reverted for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of deletion, you might like to draft your article before submission, then ask me or any other editor to proofread it. To start creating a draft article, just click your user name at the top of the screen when you are logged in, and edit that page as you would any other. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
The one firm rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing.
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Verbal chat 15:40, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
BioInitiative Report
[edit]Hiya, good to see someone else making useful comments on the BioInitiative report discussion page. I can't help noticing however that your username seems to perhaps rather a poor choice, giving the impression that your sole purpose on Wiki is to push some support for the BioInitiative report. I don't want to be in any way unwelcoming because the more sensible input the better (as is the case generally with Wiki), but it might be worth realising that this point will give other contributors suspicion as to your involvement, motives and interests (hence some of the comments above). Just a thought for reference - Verbal was Sesquipedalian Verbiage and papageno is/was Qu1che, so it is quite reasonable to change your username to something more appropriate if you intend on contributing to Wiki more widely (which I will gladly encourage)! topazg (talk) 15:06, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
