Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia! We have compiled some guidance for new healthcare editors:
 * 1) Please keep the mission of Wikipedia in mind. We provide the public with accepted knowledge, working in a community.
 * 2) We do that by finding high quality secondary sources and summarizing what they say, giving WP:WEIGHT as they do.  Please do not try to build content by synthesizing content based on primary sources.
 * 3) Please use high-quality, recent, secondary sources for medical content (see WP:MEDRS; for the difference between primary and secondary sources, see the WP:MEDDEF section.) High-quality sources include review articles (which are not the same as peer-reviewed), position statements from nationally and internationally recognized bodies (like CDC, WHO, FDA), and major medical textbooks. Lower-quality sources are typically removed. Please beware of predatory publishers – check the publishers of articles (especially open source articles) at Beall's list.
 * 4) The ordering of sections typically follows the instructions at WP:MEDMOS. The section above the table of contents is called the WP:LEAD. It summarizes the body. Do not add anything to the lead that is not in the body. Style is covered in MEDMOS as well; we avoid the word "patient" for example.
 * 5) We don't use terms like "currently", "recently," "now", or "today". See WP:RELTIME.
 * 6) More generally see WP:MEDHOW, which gives great tips for editing about health -- for example, it provides a way to format citations quickly and easily
 * 7) Citation details are important:
 * 8) *Be sure cite the PMID for journal articles and ISBN for books
 * 9) *Please include page numbers when referencing a book or long journal article, and please format citations consistently within an article.
 * 10) *Do not use URLs from your university library that have "proxy" in them: the rest of the world cannot see them.
 * 11) *Reference tags generally go after punctuation, not before; there is no preceding space.
 * 12) We use very few capital letters (see WP:MOSCAPS) and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
 * 13) Common terms are not usually wikilinked; nor are years, dates, or names of countries and major cities. Avoid overlinking!\
 * 14) Never copy and paste from sources; we run detection software on new edits.
 * 15) Talk to us! Wikipedia works by collaboration at articles and user talkpages.

Once again, welcome, and thank you for joining us! Please share these guidelines with other new editors.

Many thanks for contributing Anushri.chitkara
Hi Anushri.chitkara, thanks so much for contributing to the article on Children's Vaccine Initiative. I see that you have drafted approximately 178 words on the initiative as a proposal for a new page. Be aware that any biomedical statements on Wikipedia have a stricter referencing policy than other statements made on Wikipedia because it is so very important to get good quality health information out there. For this reason, WikiProject Medicine editors reviewed your edits to check through the text you drafted. The formatting of the text was absolutely fine (although the title should be in bold in the first line) but be aware more recent sources from the last 5-8 years are favoured over older sources and review articles are deemed much better sources than journal articles looking at one study only (the idea being not to make global generalisations based on one small scale study) so do, for future reference, cite review articles when backing up biomedical-related statements. For further information to keep yourself right on WikiProject Medicine's guidance to referencing there is a short paragraph on page three of this guide to editing articles about medicine OR you can click through this easy-to-follow mini tutorial to editing medical topics on Wikipedia. The text you drafted will remain on the Draft page for the next 6 months so if more review articles can be found on the subject this could be added to and published at a later date when you have time to do so. My first attempt at publishing an article was also knocked back so I would not feel bad about this. It is a learning curve and this article can be published if more high quality article sources, particularly review articles, can be found on the subject. Thanks so much and happy editing!
