Welcome!
Hello, Narahh, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

There have been several problems with your editing at Mussel adhesive protein, including the following:
- You have provided no citations to sources to make the material you added verifiable.
- Much of what you posted was unambiguously copied from a previously published source. You made many chznges to the wording, but what you posted was still close enough to the original to make the copying unambiguous. That is unacceptable, as it infringes copyright.

- If you persist in editing in ways which are contrary to Wikipedia's policies, you are likely to be blocked from editing by an administrator. JBW (talk) 22:15, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- I clearly added sources, the references are linked and listed at the bottom of the page.
- I also did not directly copy any of the information, anything that you may feel is “directly copied” is factual information (ie protein composition and structural components) that cannot be changed, but it was paraphrased when added. After including factual information paraphrased from a source, I added my own analysis of that information in terms of how that structure helps the protein’s function. So I don’t understand why you are accusing me of direct copying, no sources, and just changing some words. Narahh (talk) 14:40, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi JBW, can you provide any evidence to support this serious accusation of plagiarism? Otherwise your comment bears little credibility in my view. MTLE4470 EFP (talk) 15:05, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
