Welcome![edit]

Hello, Ajmer0927, 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.

You can find answers to many student questions in our FAQ.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:03, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing requirements[edit]

Please read WP:RS - blogs and youtube videos are largely not acceptable sources. Also see WP:MEDRS, which outlines minimum sourcing standards for medical claims, which are quite strict. Cartwright-Jones's dissertation does not meet this standard, and her concerns about black henna are not in line with mainstream medical thinking. Finally, see WP:NOT - Wikipedia is not a howto site, and recipes and instructions on how to make your own henna do not have a place here. MrOllie (talk) 21:31, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What makes you think catywtight- jones's dissertation does not meet with medical mainstream? do you have reliable sources for black henna?. I was trying to improve the Mehndi page but, the information that is on there right now does not meet the six good article criteria. Ajmer0927 (talk) 15:22, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
