Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article. |
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Howerzym, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian 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.

How to write a care plan
[edit]Hi. I removed your section on how to write a care plan from the nursing care plan article. While you can document what it is, you cannot give advice. Wikipedia policy is that "how to" articles are not allowed, but when it comes to medical topics there's an extra reason for this - there are a lot of people who will read things on the internet and take the advice they find uncritically. While your addition might be fine, there's nothing to stop someone from editing it and slipping something very harmful in.
Also remember that there are special guidelines for writing about medical topics; you might want to revisit the training module or look over these suggestions. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 23:41, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
