Hello Natalie, I am an online ambassador who you can ask about anything by using my talk page, or email if you do not want others to see what you want to say. I will also be keeping an eye on what what editing you do on Wikipedia in this course, and will lend a hand or have a chat. I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia and can make a positive difference to our content! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:46, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi, it is good you have found out how to use my talk page, as collaboration is important to making an encyclopedia. My exciting recent news is that I had my article listed on the front page for 8 hours thiophosphoryl fluoride. You could be able to do it too if you make up a new page in a sandbox, get it looking good and referenced and then move it into position. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:17, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Possible Revisions

Hi Natalie, I was looking over your page and I noticed a few things that could be worked on. A few of the sections could still be expanded on. There is information present, but maybe add some more details to the bullet points. For example, in the policy under review section there is room for you to elaborate. What exactly about sperm and egg donation is under review right now? Another section I think would be interesting to work on is the storage of egg, sperm, and embryos. I had visited an IVF laboratory once and they showed me their storage rooms and it's actually very fascinating. You could include more information about using liquid nitrogen for storage and the amounts of eggs, sperm, and embryos can be stored at a time. The section about the Deceased Father's Act is interesting, but is there any controversy regarding this? Maybe you can touch on any restrictions, if there are any, for why people may not participate in IVF. So far it seems like a very good article. Just try and expand a little more on some of the sections. I hope this helps!Naprissi (talk) 17:17, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
