Welcome!

Hello, Jsilva8, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam 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.

You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 04:41, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

Thoughts for topics: Ann Preston, Diane Crump, Clara Barton, and Maxine Dunlap. Maxine Dunlap doesn't already have a wikipedia page. Jsilva8 (talk) 02:32, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

Response to Topics

The entry for Clara Barton looks fairly extensive. Is there a section of it you think you can add to? Ann Preston looks like there's more room for additions. I don't know Maxine Dunlap -- if there are resources available, you could contribute something new.

It looks like you are interested in women and medicine? You might take a look at a book by Annette Dorey, Mrs. Dr. Lucy -- it's about early women physicians in Maine. There are likely several good subjects in there. The library should have the book, but if not, let me know --- I can loan you a copy. Edw04005 (talk) 21:46, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
