I just noticed some of your edits that inserted external links into the body text of Phillip D. Zamore and Draft:Erik J. Sontheimer. As a general rule, external links should not be inserted into an article's body text. You may put a few relevant links in a separate external links section at the end of the article. Topics you may want to link to in the body should be done with internal wikilinks. TornadoLGS (talk) 03:45, 24 December 2025 (UTC)

ok thank you! RNAfangirl (talk) 18:22, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

Hello, RNAfangirl. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Anastasia Khvorova, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the Edit Request Wizard), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jay8g [V•T•E] 19:17, 8 January 2026 (UTC)

@Jay8g I did disclose COI on the talk page for this draft; is there a better way to do this? Thank you! RNAfangirl (talk) 19:43, 8 January 2026 (UTC)

Wonderful, thank you @MurielMary! RNAfangirl (talk) 14:13, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

Hi @RNAfangirl: How goes it? I saw your article. I see you put a load of Selected publications in, by the looks of it manually, which is extremely laudable as its a lot of work but not the best. To make it better in the future do something like use e.g. looking at the first one "Yamada K, Vignesh N. Hariharan VN, Jillian Caiazzi J, Miller R" - what you do is create a cite journal, plug the pmid of 39090305 in and it will generate the citation for you. You end with a reference because the cite journal creates refs, so what you do if rip off the ref tag on the citation each end and use the bare citation for the publication entry. Doing it that way means the reader can come along and lift the whole citation with much work and use whatever way they want. Its really helps on displying books, articles, monographs, jounral entries for each subject. Very easy to do as well and looks quite good as it formats it as well. Makes the article look better. Hopes that helps your endeavours. scope_creep^Talk 18:34, 1 February 2026 (UTC)

Done- thank you! RNAfangirl (talk) 14:24, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

Also, refs go after punctuation, not before; please correct. Ldm1954 (talk) 14:30, 25 February 2026 (UTC)
