Dear Fellow Wikipedians, I am a staff member of The BMJ and am trying to simplify and shorten the wikipedia entries of 3 of our key editors and standardise the sections as Education, Career, Other. Two of these editors have an existing wikipedia page, and one does not. These are Fiona Godlee, Kamran Abbasi, Theo Bloom (the latter of which would be a new entry). I would like to replace the current Fiona Godlee entry with the following, and have been advised by another Wikipedia editor to put this here on the Talk page first. Who needs to check this and when can I edit the substantive page--or does someone else need to do that? David Allen, The BMJ Kamran Abbasi is a doctor, medical editor, and cricket writer. He is Executive Editor of The BMJ. Education Educated at Oakwood School and Thomas Rotherham College in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, Kamran Abbasi qualified in medicine from Leeds University in 1992, and then trained in general and internal medicine in Yorkshire and London. Career Dr. Abbasi is a previous acting editor of The BMJ and a past editor of the Bulletin of the World Health Organization.[1]. In other roles he has worked as a chief executive and medical director of medical education and health information companies, and as a freelance consultant, writer, and editor. Dr Abbasi has written on a broad range of topics in medicine and international health, including a major series on the World Bank and its role in global health. Other Dr Abbasi is editor of the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine. He is an honorary senior lecturer at the Department of Primary Care, Imperial College, London; Patron, South Asian Health Foundation; and a Member of the General Advisory Council of the King's Fund. He is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh and the Royal College of Physicians of London. Dr Abbasi is a cricket writer and blogger for Cricinfo.com with a particular expertise in Pakistan cricket and the politics of cricket. [2] He writes for Dawn, Pakistan's leading English-language newspaper, among other freelance writing and editing. In October 2004, when Dr Abbasi was acting editor, the BMJ published a personal view in which author Derek Summerfield expressed his concern at what he saw as systematic violations of the fourth Geneva Convention by the Israeli army in Gaza. In addition to responses sent to the website, almost 1000 emails were sent directly to Dr Abbasi. An analysis of all these emails provides a less benign view of what editors face when entering this thorny debate.[4] — Preceding unsigned comment added by DavidAllen,TheBMJ (talk • contribs) 16:37, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
