While I have no real interest in doing any further edits to the article you created, I need to point that it violates the What Wikipedia is NOT policy. If you'd like to have a publicly viewable but not editable page, you should use a service such as http://googlepages.google.com . There is absolutely nothing you can do to keep others from editing your page or deleting it (which will likely happen as this appears to be original research). Is there some reason why it needs to be online at Wikipedia? (EhJJ)TALK 00:09, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Neat assignment! First of all Welcome to Wikipedia! Your contributions would absolutely be appreciated! First of all, I'd like to suggest that you change the {{undercontruction}} tag to {{inuse|5 days as part of an assignment. Please post comments on the [[Talk:Hidden Welfare State|talk page]]}}, as this is more accurate and informative. Also, you may want to put additional details on the talk page to explain why you'd like people to avoid editing the article, and until when (i.e. April x, 2008). Wikipedia is built on the concept of collaboration. The other alternative, if you'd like to prevent others from editing your work until a later date, is to make a "Sandbox", such as User:Strusty/Hidden Welfare State, where you can create your article and then move it to the article space when it's ready.
I've put the standard welcome tag at the top of this talk page to help you get quick access to the core policies and style manuals, etc. Of course, you are more than welcome to ask me or other editors for advice! To be honest, I only skimmed your article and made a few minor edits, so I'm not sure how WP:ORish it is. I need to study a bit of immunology, but I'll take a look at it later tonight or tomorrow to give you my impression of how it may better meet Wikipedia's standard. Happy editing!
