[edit] Copy of creation comments

Fairly normal usage seems to be with lower case, so I'll create Leukemia inhibitory factor, I'll put in your text, but you need to provide the sources for the information it contains (at the same time you must not have copied it from those sources). It will also need wikifying and I think it might earn a {{technical}} tag unless you provide an introductory paragraph in less technical terms, e.g. I suspect that "induce the terminal differentiation" means that it stops them dividing uncontrollably and turns them into the sort of cell that they would normally turn into. Even if I'm right, most people wouldn't draw that inference. --David Woolley 21:58, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
