hi[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia from the Medicine WikiProject![edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia from WikiProject Medicine (also known as WPMED).
We're a group of editors who strive to improve the quality of medical articles here on Wikipedia. One of our members has noticed that you are interested in editing medical articles; it's great to have a new interested editor on board. In your wiki-voyages, a few things that may be relevant to editing Wikipedia articles are:
- Thanks for coming aboard! We always appreciate a new editor. Feel free to leave us a message at any time on our talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. Please leave a message on the WPMED talk page if you have any problems, suggestions, would like review of an article, need suggestions for articles to edit, or would like some collaboration when editing!
- Sourcing of medical and health-related content on Wikipedia is guided by our medical sourcing guidelines, commonly referred to as MEDRS. These guidelines typically require recent secondary sources to support information; their application is further explained here. Primary sources (case studies, case reports, research studies) are rarely used, especially if the primary sources are produced by the organisation or individual who is promoting a claim.
- The Wikipedia community includes a wide variety of editors with different interests, skills, and knowledge. We all manage to get along through a lot of discussion that happens under the scenes and through the bold, revert, discuss editing cycle. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss them on an article's talk page or post a message on the WPMED talk page.
Feel free to drop a note on my talk page if you have any problems. I wish you all the best on your wiki voyages!--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 22:30, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- Myasthenia gravis...will leave your revert for now however this[1] does not comply w/ Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine)#MEDRS... IMO--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 22:27, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 18[edit]
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Fine-tuned universe, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Naturalness (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:04, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

MOS:POSS[edit]
Hi. I notice that you (in good faith I'm sure) reverted an edit I made, describing it as wrong. I did leave an edit summary with a short cut to explain but there's no harm explaining here. As per manual of style:
Singular nouns For the possessive of singular nouns, including proper names and words ending with an s, add 's (my daughter's achievement, my niece's wedding, Cortez's men, the boss's office, Glass's books, Illinois's largest employer, Descartes's philosophy, Verreaux's eagle). Exception: abstract nouns ending with an /s/ sound, when followed by sake (for goodness' sake, for his conscience' sake). If a name already ends in s or z and would be difficult to pronounce if 's were added to the end, consider rearranging the phrase to avoid the difficulty: Jesus's teachings or the teachings of Jesus.
Thanks. NEDOCHAN (talk) 10:07, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
ECDSA vs EdDSA[edit]
Hey, cryptographers are bad at naming things but ECDSA and EdDSA are two very different and distinct algorithms. I'm going to revert the merge. Let me know if you have any questions. --FiloSottile (talk) 02:01, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for October 31[edit]
An automated process has detected that when you recently edited GRPC, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dropbox.
