Talk:Artificial kidney

Here's some ideas for this article to make it more reliable. CharlotteHayden (talk) 16:47, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) more sources. DailyMail.com is not a reliable source. I would suggest looking through a more reliable database to find more relevant and peer reviewed articles. Your other article is from 2008. That is not reliable anymore. Any scientific article will soon be out of date unless it is something concrete like the theory of gravity.
 * 2) Add more links that relate to other articles. You want people to be able to find out what they do not know through other wikipedia articles.
 * 3) Be careful adding highly scientific words without adding definitions or links to the article that explains it. For example, people reading this article may not know what hypertension, pertoneal, and cardiovascular disease are or what they are related to and why.

We plan to add more information about the advances, usages, and improvements needed for the wearable artificial kidney. There are more details and specifications needed for the use of the WAK (wearable artificial kidney) that can be added to this article. We will also add more on the prevalence of end-stage renal diseases and why the artificial kidney is important. There is no information on side effects or disadvantages so we will add that. What I plan to add to the artificial kidney article on wikipedia is talking more about how the wearable artificial kidney works. Another change I plan to make is adding information on at least one experiment that involves the wearable artificial kidney. The reason why I want to add this information is because it can give people an idea if the wearable artificial kidney is beneficial for someone with kidney disease. Lastly, the artificial wikipedia article says that it needs to be updated, so I plan on using a lot of information from the MSU library database to make the information more current.

It would appear several groups have created a wikipresence by making encyclopedia pages that refer to their own work, possibly to the exclusion of others. the Gura Group, the Fissell group -ie me-, another group at UCLA....

I would concur that the pages (automated) wearable artificial kidney and artificial kidney should be merged. The work of leonard's group, Humes' group, Saito's group, Nissensons (now defunct) project others should probably all sit together until one breaks free from the peleton.

Plagiarism
The "Artificial Kidney" section of this article is plagiarized directly from http://www.hindustantimes.com/First-implantable-artificial-kidney-created-by-Shuvo-Roy/Article1-634201.aspx. I had a tough time finding the correct template to use to tag this, so I went with Template:Close_paraphrasing. Additionally, I have added Template:Cleanup to the article as a whole.

Merger
Isn't Wearable artificial kidney just a subset of Artificial kidney? I propose to merge the two articles. -- P 1 9 9 • TALK 13:25, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, add Wearable artificial kidney as a section to Artificial kidney. Aditya (talk) 14:47, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I have completed this merge. As this article appears to be copied in whole from http://allaboutroboticsurgery.com/artificialkidneydevices.html, I have only preserved the lede. LT90001 (talk) 06:31, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Update
We have a backlog in copyright cleanup and this is out of my usual area, so I'm hoping that somebody else can update the article to include information (that isn't a copyvio!) on the articial kidney prototype. ,. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:14, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
