Introduction
[edit]Hello!
My name is Shan. I'm also a student in Professor Ogg's Molecular Biology Section 81 course. This is my first semester in JHU's Bioinformatics program and I'm hoping it's a great one! How do you feel about the course so far?
Regards, ShanSabri (talk) 02:22, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Shan, Noticed that Charity has joined us. Did you get a chance to say "hello"?
YEP! Thanks for the heads up! Regards, ShanSabri (talk) 18:04, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
Hello from Charity Ogunsanya
[edit]Hello,
I am one of Dr. Ogg's Molecular Biology student. I started JHU in the summer and this is my third course for the year. It is exciting to be able to do something new. Please send me a reply when you have time or update my page as a way to test the functionality of the system.

Hi Charity, welcome to wiki group for Molecular Biology. Glad to have some company here! -amy

- Amy, please don't mind, here are two comments about your reply to Charity. First, you should always indent your replies, by preceding them with a colon character (":"). Next, when you signed your reply with four tildes (~~~~), you started it on a new line, preceded by a space character. That causes it to appear inside of a box in a monospace font -- as though it were a code sample. Next time, just sign your reply with four tildes immediately following the last word of your reply, like this: Klortho (talk) 00:58, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for the tips. The presentation had said to make the space followed by the four tildes and I assumed that meant on the next line. This make sense to me now. 71.192.138.60 (talk) 01:58, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- Ooops, guess I wasn't logged in that time. One more attempt to get it right. Aehall47 (talk) 02:04, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- Perfect! I still forget to log in sometimes. Just FYI, when that happens, if you notice right away, you can just go in and edit your last "sig", and replace it with four tildes. In this case, cut out "[[Special:Contributions/71.192.138.60|71.192.138.60]] ([[User talk:71.192.138.60|talk]]) 01:58, 15 September 2012 (UTC)", above, and replace it with four tildes. In effect, "re-signing". Klortho (talk) 02:40, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

- Hi, this message is to Charity. It seems you deleted the conversation above when you made your last comment. I don't know if it was on purpose or not, but in general, it's considered a no-no to delete conversations from talk pages. In talk pages, you should just add new comments to the end -- like a discussion forum, except that it's kind-of manually maintained instead of an intrinsic part of the software. If you want to make your comment again, try adding it to the end of this discussion "thread", without deleting anything that has come before. Klortho (talk) 17:36, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
About Charity's edit to your user page
[edit]Hi, Amy, I see that Charity edited your user page by mistake, when she probably wanted to add that comment here, on your talk page. I've left a message for her about that on her talk page. I just wanted to tell you, that you should feel free to delete her comment from your user page -- that is your space for you to maintain. Klortho (talk) 17:42, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for pointing that out. I have it all fixed up and transfered the information to Charity's talk page in case she needs it. Aehall47 (talk) 13:04, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
