Talk:Cell adhesion

message: Hi! I am a final year biotechnology student at Imperial College London. As part of my Science Communication course, I will be editing the Wikipedia page on Cell adhesion as my coursework. Please feel free to leave any comments regarding my work. Best regards, Lu.qianhe (talk) 14:31, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I have attempted to simplify the lead section for it to be more accessible to a lay audience. Some rewording has been done and more references have been included in comparison to the previous lead section paragraph. My next step would be modifying the following section on "Process": probably restructure it and organise it into mechanisms explaining the general principles of cell adhesion. I will try to make new diagrams for the mechanisms and for the CAMs. Lu.qianhe (talk) 00:28, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

text: I have reorganised the structure of the article. I have compiled info on the mechanisms of cell adhesion under a new section "General mechanisms" and added many more information on how cell adhesion works in different scenarios (including many more references). Information on other different organisms are compiled into the section "Other organisms", where some more info would be added to complement and references will be included. Still need to add more info into cell-matrix junctions and images/diagrams will also be added later. Lu.qianhe (talk) 23:23, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

text: I have completed adding information on cell junctions, cell adhesion in other organisms and the clinical implications. I have deleted the measurements and application section at it seemed less relevant to whole article and appear to be a bit too technical going into how cell adhesion are measured. I still need to upload images/diagrams for many bits of the articles. I noticed someone think that the initial diagram is a bit ugly and need to be changed. However, I cannot think of how to make a better diagram that can appear as a overview of cell adhesion placed in the lead section. Therefore I will leave that diagram there and make new diagrams for other sections. Lu.qianhe (talk) 14:35, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

text: I have added a few diagrams for the cell junctions. I have ended my assignment for now but I would still be watching this page for any feedback and possibly making some further improvements. Lu.qianhe (talk) 17:00, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

message: Proposed merger with cellular adhesion: both cover the same topic but from different perspectives. I don't know which title to use, but I'll volunteer to merge the articles in a week or two. --Liveste 05:33, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed.  If you don't get to it, I will.  Zab 13:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

text: Merger Complete -- This article now contains all the content from Cellular adhesion.  I apologize if it seems like I jumped the gun rather than awaiting consensus, but both articles were the same, so I did not think there was even a question as to whether a merger was needed.

message: How come "Supplier for Cell Adhesion Measurement Instrumentation: JPK Instruments" is an external reference? I would say that's a sneaky advertisement.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Solarstandard (talk • contribs) 22:56, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
