Hi SUJesse! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Be our guest at the Teahouse! The Teahouse is a friendly space where new editors can ask questions about contributing to Wikipedia and get help from peers and experienced editors. I hope to see you there!

Hello, SUJesse, and

! My name is Ian 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.

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

1. Please keep the mission of Wikipedia in mind. We provide the public with accepted knowledge, working in a community.
2. We do that by finding high quality secondary sources and summarizing what they say, giving
   WP:MEDDEF
   .)
3. Please use high-quality, recent, secondary sources for medical content (see
   predatory publishers – check the publishers of articles (especially open source articles) at Beall's list
   .
4. The ordering of sections typically follows the instructions at
   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.
5. More generally see
   WP:MEDHOW
6. Reference tags generally go after punctuation, not before; there is no preceding space.
7. We use very few
   capital letters
   and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
8. Common terms are not usually
   wikilinked
   ; nor are years, dates, or names of countries and major cities.
9. Do not use URLs from your university library's internal net: the rest of the world cannot see them.
10. Please include page numbers when referencing a book or long journal article.
11. Please format citations consistently within an article and be sure to cite the
    WP:MEDHOW
    for how to format citations.
12. Never copy and paste from sources; we run detection software on new edits.
13. 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.
