Welcome!

Hello, Mengyurui, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

Major depressive disorder

Hi, Mengyurui, please read the message I left another student about Major depressive disorder here. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:53, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As SandyGeorgia says, this isn't a suitable article for you to work on. Most importantly, because the article is a Featured Article it should be fairly complete. You're going to struggle to find much to add to the topic, and odds are that anything you find won't be suitable for a Wikipedia article. The experience of trying to find something to add is likely to be frustrating.

On top of that, of course, is the fact that a Featured Article is expected to conform to a lot of standards for layout, formatting, and style that aren't expected of most Wikipedia articles. That means that anything you did write would be unlikely to stick. For these reasons, I strongly encourage you to pick another topic. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:18, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
