Welcome

Welcome! I'm curious. How did you develop the citation in your sandbox? I used [1] and came out with: Ben-Shlomo I, Yu Hsu S, Rauch R, Kowalski HW, Hsueh AJ (2003). "Signaling receptome: a genomic and evolutionary perspective of plasma membrane receptors involved in signal transduction". Sci. STKE. 2003 (187): RE9. doi:10.1126/stke.2003.187.re9. PMID 12815191. {{cite journal}}: Unknown parameter |month= ignored (help)CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link) Best! Biosthmors (talk) 20:28, 23 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Also, access dates are only helpful for website references (in case it changes or goes dead). Since it's a journal, no need. Best! Biosthmors (talk) 20:30, 23 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Topic for Course Assignment-

edit

There is already quite a bit of info in the Wnt signaling pathway article, but you have already identified ways that it needs to be improved on the talk page and it is an important topic with lots more that could be added and/or clarified. There is plenty on that topic for your lecture as well, so unless you are leaning toward something else, I think that would be a very good choice. Biolprof (talk) 21:13, 7 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Assignment 3 copy editing

I made some changes for you to review, but I don't think I have any suggestions that I didn't already implement. Jnims (talk) 23:21, 18 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Ian's Fact Checking

edit

I think a lot of what you have is good, since it is so "well understood" at this point. I do think I would add a few citations to your work, in particular the last line of "In fact, protein homology suggests that Wnt signaling may have been present in the common ancestor of all bilaterian life." I was searching in your references and on google and could not find something about this. There was a vague reference in your Three Decades citation but not clearly stated.

Bobby's Fact Checking

edit

Going with Ian said, maybe a few more citations. The sentences seemed to be longer (for better or worse, not my area) to that reduced the need for citations, as one at the end of every sentence seems to be the norm. However, there was a sentence regarding the canonical pathway and non-canonical pathway that seemed to perhaps require a citation. Flemingrjf (talk) 05:30, 19 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Help us improve the Wikipedia Education Program

Hi Gpruett2! As a student editor on Wikipedia, you have a lot of valuable experience about what it's like to edit as a part of a classroom assignment. In order to help other students like you enjoy editing while contributing positively to Wikipedia, it's extremely helpful to hear from real student editors about their challenges, successes, and support needs. Please take a few minutes to answer these questions by clicking below. (Note that the responses are posted to a public wiki page.) Thanks!

Assignment 7

edit

Overall some nice additions to the wikipedia article.

Intro: I think that your change from Breast Cancer to saying Just cancer was not needed. The way it was before was more specific.

Discovery: Very clear and a good insight into why it is called Wnt. Those Drosophila people get all the credit!

Wnt Signaling proteins: I think you can link the X. laevis (african clawed frog) and D. melanogaster in the table.

Mechanisms: When you mention FZ being a GPCR you do not need to say "thus it spans the membrane 7x"

Your figures look great! Publishable quality! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hakkinen2013 (talkcontribs) 18:09, 22 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Wnt signaling pathway, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dorsum (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for all your contributions on Wnt signalling pathway! Most recently, I just noticed your copy-edits to improve the wording. Nice job on the article! Biosthmors (talk) 23:28, 11 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
Good job on responding to the comments. Unfortunately sometimes one can face withering criticism on this website as a beginner. It drives many away. But I applaud your determination to continue to improve the article so that readers are served better. That's fantastic. Thank you very much. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks

Thanks for the edits! I'll see if I can leave you some more comments shortly. Also, if you want to see who has been active lately at Wikipedia:PRV#Natural_sciences, you might just leave 2 or 3 of them the request to leave some feedback for you on the talk page. You can let them know I sent you over there from the PRV list. Thanks again! Biosthmors (talk) 13:28, 12 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
