Help me!
Please help me with a question about user boxes...I would like to use some on my user page, and have found this gallery of existing boxes page. Is it ok to just use these, or should I ask the user who created them for their permission? It isn't clear to me if they were created for general use. Thank you!!

Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. We have compiled a list of guidance for new editors:


 * 1) Use high quality sources for medical content. This is described at WP:MEDRS. High quality sources include review articles (note this is not the same as peer reviewed), position statements from national and internationally recognized bodies (think CDC, WHO, NICE, FDA, etc), and major medical textbooks. Lower quality sources may be removed.
 * 2) References go after not before punctuation (see WP:MOS)
 * 3) We use very few capital letters and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
 * 4) Do not use the url from the inside net of your university library. The rest of the world cannot see it.
 * 5) If you use textbooks we need page numbers.
 * 6) Please format your references as explained at WP:MEDHOW or like the ones already in the article. This is simple once you get the PMID / ISBN.
 * 7) Every sentence can be referenced. We reference more densely than other sources.
 * 8) Never "copy and paste" from sources. We run copy and paste detection software on new edits.
 * 9) Section order typically follows the instructions here at WP:MEDMOS
 * 10) Please talk to us. Wikipedia works by collaboration and this takes place on the talk pages of both articles and user.

Again welcome and thank you for joining us.

P.S. Please share this with your fellow editors

Ref
This ref says "and 30 to 50% of women with endometriosis are infertile". and they reference this 2004 Lancet review Uptodate is not a better source for a number of reasons, one being that their is no static copy of it to reference. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:52, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
 * What ref does Uptodate use to support their statement? Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 22:58, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
