Portal:Medicine/Selected picture candidates


 * purge server cache

On this page, you can suggest pictures for display on Portal:Medicine, and discuss them. This should be an easy way for more people to get involved in the medicine portal. Please don't hesitate to join in this portal (anyone can!).

Finding good candidates
Look for an image on Wikipedia (or Wikimedia commons) that is related to medicine that you think is very good and would be suitable for use as the selected image. This image should be of high quality and resolution, be pleasing to the eye (however, de gustibus non disputandum), and should have a correct copyright tag and photo credit.

How to add your nomination

 * 1) Click on the "Edit"-button for the "Current nominations" section.
 * 2) At the top of this page (above the other candidates) type (replace FILENAME with the filename that you are nominating): === [[Image:FILENAME]] ===
 * 3) Below this new line, add your reasons for nominating the image and then sign your nomination with ~ . If you created this picture, type "self-nomination". You can add a thumbnail of the image to the nomination page by inserting [[Image:FILENAME|thumb|right]].

Supporting and opposing

 * If you approve of a picture, write "Support" below the reason why this picture was nominated, followed by your reasons for supporting it.
 * A nomination is considered a vote in support, so nominators don't need to add another vote to their nominations.
 * If you oppose a nomination, write "Oppose" below the list of supports, followed by the reasons for your objection. Where possible, objections should provide a specific rationale that can be addressed.
 * To withdraw an objection, strike it out (with ... ) rather than removing it.

Past nominations
As images are selected, their discussions will be moved to this pages archive.

Project: Diagram
Utilizing Template:Annotated image 4, allows the insertion of links to Wikipedia articles in places where "words" appear. I am interested in suggesting this type of usage for various medical/medicine related articles.
