Welcome!

Hello, Caduceus19, and welcome to Wikipedia! 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.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:23, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

These all seem like valuable additions to the page. Another group in your class seems to be interested in working on fluid balance (see NyQuildrops's sandbox) so it might be useful to coordinate these things with your classmates. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:44, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Edit Feedback

Hey there. Some things I saw when reading through your draft:

It does not seem that your group has formed a draft of the pictures you plan to add to your article. I suggest looking for already approved pictures on Wikimedia to add to your article that are relevant to the sections you have chosen to talk about. If you do not find any images already on Wikimedia that would work, think about some pictures you can take yourself once you start dissecting.

Another thing I noticed was that most of the citations in your drafts are only on the last sentences of the paragraphs. I would advise being cautious of citation usage and make sure you are citing each sentence that contains information/knowledge that is not your own.

It is also slightly unclear to me whether you are all planning on editing the same article, or if you have chosen separate ones based on your topic. Although either option is acceptable, it would be helpful if each group member had the links to their article of choice somewhere in their drafts for clarity.

Overall, the content is neutral and the sources used appear to be reliable. Try to focus on communicating between each other and drafting an overall plan of how each group member's contributions will impact the rest of the group or how you can work together on certain aspects of this project.

Your draft looks pretty good to me. I do recommend that you use the cite tool in the visual editor to create properly-formatted references. If you aren’t sure how to do this, revisit the section of the training module beginning on this page.
