Message from Greg at OurMed
Hi Katie My name is Greg Miller and I'm the director of the online healthcare movement called "OurMed". I'm reaching out to you because you're listed as an MD and I thought you might be interested in our project "OurMed".

At OurMed, we're building an exciting interactive healthcare website that's based on MediaWiki, like Wikipedia. But we're taking this awesome global, collaborative tool an important step further--we verify all content by healthcare professionals like yourself.

We launched the Wikipedia version last year (OurMed.org), and this year we’re adding a host of important features that will make OurMed an extensive site for unbiased and user driven clinical research/tools for physicians as well as user friendly resources for patients and consumers. You can have a peek at our new design here: bluelinerdev.com/ourmed

Although we have a section on editorials in the new site, the new one will emphasize non-commercial, unbiased information--all entirely free. The organization is governed by a non-profit Board made up of Healthcare professionals, the former head of Wikipedia, Florence Devouard, former accountant of Wikipedia Oleta McHenry and other professionals.

Here's a short video of our plans: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjAqbMl1dVk

If you're interest to join us as a "founding framer" to help review contact, please get in touch! My email is greg.miller@ourmed.org

Thank you, Greg Miller Executive Director OurMed.Org GMiller1965 15:48, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Looking for Wikipedia Ambassadors
Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you are listed as a Wikipedian associated with Harvard. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at schools in Boston and Cambridge (including Harvard), which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

If you live near Boston and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from the area who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.

If you're an experienced and active Wikipedian, you might be interested alternatively in becoming an Online Ambassador. The role of Online Ambassadors is to serve as mentors for students; it doesn't require any in-person outreach. Take a look at the Online Ambassador guidelines; the "mentorship process" describes roughly what will be expected of mentors in the coming term. If that's something you want to do, please apply!

You can find instructions for applying at WP:ONLINE. The main things we're looking for in Online Ambassadors are friendliness, regular activity (since mentorship is a commitment that spans several months), and the ability to give detailed, substantive feedback on articles (both short new articles, and longer, more mature ones).
