Welcome to Wikipedia from the Medicine WikiProject!


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 require recent secondary sources to support information; their 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.
 * The Wikipedia community includes 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, revert, discuss editing cycle. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss them 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!

Hi Sylvain, Here is a little more info about the english WPMED. I look forward touching base soon. Thank you again for reaching out. JenOttawa (talk) 14:56, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

Templates to welcome new users to WPMED (english version)
This is something else that you could look for (or create) a french version for. I used the welcome new editors to WPMED template to send your message above. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Welcome_templates_RFC

WPMED in french
I think it would also be a great idea to leave a note introducing yourself on the french MED message board https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussion_Projet:M%C3%A9decine I have strong french language comprehension skills (oral and written), and I am proficient speaking (my family speaks french at home), but my written french is weak. Please feel free to ping me on these boards anytime. To ping you add to your message and it looks like this.

Make your User Page
Hi again Sylvain, I also suggest you click on the User Page tab (to the left of "Talk") and create a user page. You do not have to disclose your identity (if you do not wish to), but it is a good idea to fully disclose any potential COI you have editing medical content right away. We can chat more about this in person. JenOttawa (talk) 15:13, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
