Welcome to Wikipedia from Wikiproject Medicine (also known as WPMED). We're a group of editors who strive to improve the quality of medical articles here on Wikipedia. One of our members has noticed that you are interested in editing medical articles; it's great to have a new interested editor on board. In your wiki-voyages, a few things that may be relevant to editing Wikipedia articles are:


 * Thanks for coming aboard! We always appreciate a new editor. Feel free to leave us a message at any time on our talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. Please leave a message on the WPMED talk page if you have any problems, suggestions, would like review of an article, need suggestions for articles to edit, or would like some collaboration when editing!
 * Sourcing of medical and health-related content on Wikipedia is guided by our medical sourcing guidelines, commonly referred to as MEDRS. These guidelines typically requires recent secondary sources to support information; its application is further explained here. Primary sources (case studies, case reports, research studies) are rarely used, especially if the primary sources are produced by the organisation or individual who is promoting a claim.
 * Wikipedia is a kingdom full of a wide variety of editors with different interests, skills, and knowledge. We all manage to get along through a lot of discussion that happens under the scenes and through the bold, edit, discuss editing cycle. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss it on an article's talk page or post a message on the WPMED talk page.

Feel free to drop a note on my talk page if you have any problems. I wish you all the best on your wiki voyages! Jytdog (talk) 15:15, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

Further welcome
Hi Nicolas - again, welcome! I generally work on articles about health in Wikipedia, and on conflict of interest issues. Please do consider joining WP:MED - there may be other wikiprojects here that might interest you, like WP:Wikiproject Pharmacology. (Wikiprojects are groups of editors who work together on articles of common interest.)

We do love experts here - please have a look at WP:EXPERT which provides useful advice to subject matter experts, who are new to Wikipedia - some useful essays are linked from there as well.

Please also see WP:SELFCITE.

Feel try to drop me a line if you have questions about editing WP. Good luck! Jytdog (talk) 15:19, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
