User:Biosthmors/Intro Neuro
Welcome. I'm "Biosthmors", and I'll be helping out your Introductory Neuroscience taught by Steve Potter. Another Wikipedian, "Disavian", a GT alumnus who has worked extensively on GT topics on Wikipedia, is also here to help. You can ask either of us questions either at Disavian's talk page or my talk page. Please edit this page and type your user name and subject (if you have one) below, like this:
#[[User talk:Username|Username]], [[Article title]]
Also, please copy and paste this to make sure the talk page of your article has this template:
{{Educational assignment|year=2012|link=User:Biosthmors/Intro Neuro}}
Here are some some tips and links. If you are starting a new article (indicated by a red link or a redirect), your topic should be notable (see the general notability guideline) and worthy of a separate page (see the reasons for merging). It's possible someone else wrote an article on the same subject so check for alternate titles (and one shouldn't capitalize the second or subsequent words in an article title, unless the title is a proper noun). As an example, here's an article I started from scratch. Another one I started (with an interesting title) is drunk walking. The highest-quality article I've written so far is deep vein thrombosis, which I rewrote. Because this is an encyclopedia, we are based off of secondary sources (as this and this explain for medicine and science). Review articles are the main secondary source for biomedical content. One doesn't have to use {{In use}} or {{Under construction}} on articles, though they may be useful. Again, let me or Disavian know if you have any questions. Why do I edit here? An example would be this collaboration to improve an article about a tremendously important global disease. Happy editing. =)

Notes
- ^ While the hyperlink on " 'respect' secondary sources" goes to a medical article guideline, and your article may not fall under that scope, the text is still valuable. An encyclopedia is a tertiary source. In general, every new study (primary source) that relates to your topic shouldn't make your article need a revision. Facts written in an encyclopedia tend to be broad (with an established factual basis—not a tentative research-based basis) to have some "sticking" power before they become outdated. Primary sources are not prohibited, but they should be cited with care and a respect for secondary literature. In lesser studied areas, citations to primary literature are likely desired. In extensively studied areas, a good article may not cite a single primary source.
