Hi, My name is Chiamaka Olewuenyi. Just a quick introduction. I am a Second-Year Pharmacy student from Bronx, NY. I am a Ujima Global Leader and a Bouvé Fellow. I plan to graduate with a B.S. in Pharmacy Studies in 2021 and a Doctor of Pharmacy degree in 2022. I haven’t been on co-op yet but I look forward to being on co-op next summer. I am Nigerian and the eldest of five, which are two aspects of my life that have greatly influenced who I am. My interests include community service, science, dancing, African music, and event planning. I am also pursuing a business administration minor. One of my short term goals is to work in the pharmaceutical industry. While a knowledge of science and health care is necessary, I believe I must also be educated on various financial factors that influence pharmaceutical companies. My ultimate goal is to reform the healthcare system in the United States and also developing countries.ChiaO (talk) 23:00, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, Cb31337, 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.

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. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:28, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

Pipes and underscores.

Wikipedia links have a few magical properties. First, spaces and underscores are viewed as equal in links, so abc def are the same as just doing abc def. In fact links also automatically capitalize the first letter, so red goes automatically to Red. I went threw and did cleanup on Celine Gounder, let me know if you think I did anything wrong.Naraht (talk) 18:17, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Promotional editing

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Jytdog (talk) 21:46, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for the gesture. I appreciate your concern. Cb31337 (talk) 21:52, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Also, I would appreciate that you do not put hateful comments. It's very rude. Rather, justify your points in a civil manner. Cb31337 (talk) 21:56, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

I could also have given an edit warning notice. Please see WP:BRD - if a person wants to revert back something that was changed, the burden is on that person to open a discussion on the talk page about that, instead of just reverting back.

Please be aware that Gounder probably just ~barely~ meets the notability criteria. An article that is marginally notable and has a bunch of promotional stuff is even more likely to be deleted. I think it is good that we try to have an article about her now, and volunteered a bunch of my time to making this something that can stick. I could have just nominated it for deletion as a mostly promotional mess, but I didn't do that. However harsh I am, my goal is that the article be as solid as possible and remain in the encyclopedia. We are aligned in that regard.

But thanks for starting the page, Cb31337. Jytdog (talk) 23:19, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
