Welcome!

Hello, Nchs21, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Elysia 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.

Copyright problem on Pre-eclampsia

Your additions to the above article include passages copied verbatim or nearly verbatim from a non-free source. This was detected by automatic plagiarism detection software.

Hi Nchs21, as pointed out above by a community volunteer, it is very important that you phrase things in your own words. Copy-pasting text from a source, even if it's cited, is not acceptable in most instances on Wikipedia. I want to echo Diannaa in encouraging you to take or retake the plagiarism training linked above so that you can avoid this mistake in the future. Repeated plagiarism could result in the restriction of your editing privileges, or your instructor getting notified, so I want to make sure you understand site policies.
