This user is a student editor in Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/MIT/Workshop_in_Written_Expression_Fall_2017_Sec1_(Fall_2017).
Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article.

Welcome!

Hello, LittleWen, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Handouts

You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:57, 28 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Biomaterial

-https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Biomaterial

1. This article lacks of clearly hierarchical logic in the table of content. #2, 3,4 and 7 in the content should be put into the same category: "Common terms used in biomaterials". #6 should be categorized into "Properties of biomaterials".

2. The part of "Compatibility" is underrepresented. Also, too many concepts in this paragraph are mentioned without appropriate link between each other. Furthermore, there are more crucial properties that should be mentioned in the part of "Properties of biomaterials".

Potential topics - content

1st choice: Mucus (existing article; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucus) Now, the article mentions nothing about the properties or the functions of mucus. I would like to add 1) general structure of mucus 2) function of mucus: how mucus protects the epithelium as a charge selective diffusion barrier and 3) regulation of mucus: how mucus was regulated with various pH values

2nd choice: Stimulus-responsive drug delivery system (new article) Describe the need of stimulus-responsivity in DDS, provide multiple stimuli sources and give some examples for each category.

Mucus sounds great. Go for it.
