User:Doc James/Videos

This is an overview of medical video related efforts on Wikipedia. Part of the justification for these efforts was a community consultation in 2015 which found rich content such as video was the second highest request by our users.

Release of videos have occurred from a number of sources including:

Videos from the NIH and CDC can be used without a formal arrangement as they are public domain.
 * Videos from Dr.Mike
 * Videos from Osmosis
 * Videos from Simpleshow
 * Videos from the NIH
 * Videos from the CDC

The collaboration with Osmosis formally ended in March of 2018.

Auto creation of videos based on scripts
Efforts are ongoing to allow the generation of videos automatically based on scripts on WP (see VideoWiki)

They have released all the code under an open license and put it on Github

These are also based on Wikipedia.

An example of a script with in-line references and images is Osmosis/Measles

An example of a script with in-line references and slides is MEDSKL/Acute vision loss
