The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!)
Cochrane Collaboration is an independent medical nonprofit organization consisting of over 28,000 volunteers in more than 100 countries. The collaboration was formed to organize medical scholarship in a systematic way in the interests of evidence-based research: the group conducts systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials of health-care interventions, which it then publishes in the Cochrane Library.

Cochrane has generously agreed to give free, full-access accounts to 100 medical editors. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account. Thank you Cochrane!

If you are stil active as a medical editor, come and sign up :)

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

Reply from Marcerickson
Bill, I did read your comment about the tar sands on my Talk page. What can be done I suppose is to get into the politics of the Oil Sands page and promote the Tar Sands name with reasons for calling it that. I do several things, and, as important as it is for Wikipedia to call it by the name that more accurately reflects its properties in the minds of most who don't follow the debate, I'm tired of Wikipedia and their foolish policies and politics and don't want to get involved right now. Doing so would only make my angry and frustrated and I have too much of that in my life at this time. I may post some version of this comment on the Oil Sands talk page today but it's unlikely I'll do much more than that.

Nomination of Absent referent for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Absent referent is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Absent referent (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. --Lambiam 20:07, 30 December 2017 (UTC)
