Star Trek Trivia
I personally think that Trivia sections are Informative and Entertaining as well and was not happy to find out that they are not part of Wiki Policy anymore (Used to love going to movie pages just for the Trivia Sections). I am just trying to work on the Star Trek Articles to get them to a point where they meet the guidelines (A long and windy road awaits me.) I have tried to keep items that relate the the show/episode as a full in there and any ideas you have would be great. Even if we can incorporate them into the actuall article. Take it easy anyways and sorry if this has been a pain. MattyC3350 (talk) 13:11, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Using Twinkle in a content dispute
Hi, you should not be using Twinkle to revert during a content dispute, especially using the vandalism button. It is not helpful in resolving the dispute. Kevin (talk) 04:25, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

My bad. I was annoyed that the reader completely ignored my message I put on his talk page and simply reverted my edit without dealing with my concerns. Ziphon (ALLears) 08:22, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Third opinion about Sheikh Abdullah
Hello. I saw your 3rd opinion request and posted a note on Alexis49's talk page. I also moved the quote to the the article's talk page and mentioned there that I do not feel the quote belongs at the top of the article, along with my reasoning. I see a couple of other users have also offered 3rd opinions on Alexis49's talk page, so I went ahead and removed the third opinion request from the list of open requests at WP:3O. If you still need asistance, or if you feel additional opinions are warranted, feel free to replace the request. Thanks. AubreyEllenShomo (talk) 05:34, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Internet Diplomacy
Hello. I saw your earlier posts in the discussion page of Internet Diplomacy. PLAYdiplomacy and phpdiplomacy have solved the past issue with my mediation, but now I am afraid we might be getting dangerously close to yet another edit war after a post from the site owner of 'Internet Diplomacy' calling the rest of the people's opinions (not edits, just discussion) on his article biased and threatening to revert any changes regarding his article. Can you take a look at it? Babutsa123 (talk) 10:33, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Response from Babutsa123 about Internet Diplomacy
I'm not too familiar with Wikipedia policy but I think considering what is best for Diplomacy itself, and the fact that the article is about Internet Diplomacy, which is at a development stage and can pretty much only be carried through these websites, I'm against deleting the list of websites.

We should most certainly establish a standard though. I think if a site exists, it deserves mention of its name, with the link to it as citation. This establishes that we should have a listing of the sites, and perhaps their maps. I don't think an Internet Diplomacy article which does not direct visitors to the actual diplomacy on internet is a good idea.

I also think it is reasonable to mention the unique features they have, but only after they've been proven to an independent observer, and preferably with links on the site which shows that they actually are there.

I think there should be an emphasis on 'independent observers' having more control than stakeholders such as a site owners. I was just checking the talk for Internet Diplomacy, and I'm rather bothered by the fact that the owner of the site in development named 'Internet Diplomacy' calls me subjective and says I have a hidden agenda (Ironically, while he is defending a site he owns..) and says he will block any attempts to alter the section about it. This is the worst case of notability since there's no actual site, and no proof other than a todo list I could create in MS word in 2 minutes, yet it takes half the page with priority over sections with notable sources.

Since you know more about Wikipedia policy, I think we should work on establishing a standard for Internet Diplomacy and applying it to all websites together. Then it will be possible to weed out problems created by stubborn site owners subjectively defending their sections.

Hi Ziphon!

Congratulations on ascending cholangitis passing GA-nomination. I have included a few sources for the Lymphatic system on its talk page. It's proving very difficult to get the right kind of sources, so the ones I have added might not be the most pertinent.

Hope you find the sources useful.

Dan Santos
Hello,

I would like to kindly enquire as to why my recently created 'Dan Santos' page has been removed, or in your Wikipedian vernacular, 'speedily deleted'. Lord Santos and I have a profound friendship, and I created this page out of utter respect for him. In turn, I am quite insulted that you have interpreted my creation in honour of him as a personal attack, especially without any supporting evidence. You of all people should know you should not attach arbitrary labels without citations.

Hopefully I have convinced you to reverse the damage you have done not only to Dan Santos's reputation, but to the Wikipedia community.

Yours sincerely,

Dan Santos's friend. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jchae88 (talk • contribs) 03:09, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

WikiMedicine
Hi I'm contacting you because, as a participant at Wikiproject Medicine, you may be interested in a new multinational non-profit organization we're forming at m:Wikimedia Medicine. Even if you don't want to be actively involved, any ideas you may have about our structure and aims would be very welcome on the project's talk page. Our purpose is to help improve the range and quality of free online medical content, and we'll be working with like-minded organizations, such as the World Health Organization, professional and scholarly societies, medical schools, governments and NGOs - including Translators Without Borders. Hope to see you there! --Anthonyhcole (talk) 06:50, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

meta:Wikimedia Medicine
Thank you for your interest in meta:Wikimedia Medicine. We hope to create a non profit corporation to promote the aims of the Wikimedia Movement within the topic domain of medicine. This means we plan to promote the creation and release of "health care information in all languages" under an open license. This will be done primarily via speaking and collaborating with both individuals and organizations who share our goal. We are working on anumber of collaborations already and are open to more ideas. Documents of incorporation have been submitted and we hope to be officially "off the ground" by mid Dec 2012.

The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!)
The Wikipedia Library gets Wikipedia editors free access to reliable sources that are behind paywalls. Because you are signed on as a medical editor, I thought you'd want to know about our most recent donation from Cochrane Collaboration. Cheers, Ocaasit &#124; c 20:28, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Cochrane Collaboration is an independent medical nonprofit organization that 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.
 * If you are still active as a medical editor, come and sign up :)

Medical Translation Newsletter

Issue 1, June/July 2014 by CFCF, Doc James

sign up for monthly delivery



This is the first of a series of newsletters for Wikiproject Medicine's Translation Task Force. Our goal is to make all the medical knowledge on Wikipedia available to the world, in the language of your choice. note: you will not receive future editions of this newsletter unless you *sign up*; you received this version because you identify as a member of WikiProject Medicine

Spotlight - Simplified article translation

Wikiproject Medicine started translating simplified articles in February 2014. We now have 45 simplified articles ready for translation, of which the first on African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness has been translated into 46 out of ~100 languages. This list does not include the 33 additional articles that are available in both full and simple versions.

Our goal is to eventually translate 1,000 simplified articles. This includes:
 * WHO's list of Essential Medicines
 * Neglected tropical diseases
 * Key diseases for medical subspecialties like: oncology, emergency medicine (list), anatomy, internal medicine, surgery, etc.

We are looking for subject area leads to both create articles and recruit further editors. We need people with basic medical knowledge who are willing to help out. This includes to write, translate and especially integrate medical articles.

What's happening?

I've () taken on the role of community organizer for this project, and will be working with this until December. The goals and timeline can be found here, and are focused on getting the project on a firm footing and to enable me to work near full-time over the summer, and part-time during the rest of the year. This means I will be available for questions and ideas, and you can best reach me by mail or on my talk page.
 * IEG grant

For those going to London in a month's time (or those already nearby) there will be at least one event for all medical editors, on Thursday August 7th. See the event page, which also summarizes medicine-related presentations in the main conference. Please pass the word on to your local medical editors.
 * Wikimania 2014

There has previously been some resistance against translation into certain languages with strong Wikipedia presence, such as Dutch, Polish, and Swedish. What was found is that thre is hardly any negative opinion about the the project itself; and any such critique has focused on the ways that articles have being integrated. For an article to be usefully translated into a target-Wiki it needs to be properly Wiki-linked, carry proper citations and use the formatting of the chosen target language as well as being properly proof-read. Certain large Wikis such as the Polish and Dutch Wikis have strong traditions of medical content, with their own editorial system, own templates and different ideas about what constitutes a good medical article. For example, there are not MEDRS (Polish,German,Romanian,Persian) guidelines present on other Wikis, and some Wikis have a stronger background of country-specific content.
 * Integration progress


 * Swedish Translation into Swedish has been difficult in part because of the amount of free, high quality sources out there already: patient info, for professionals. The same can be said for English, but has really given us all the more reason to try and create an unbiased and free encyclopedia of medical content. We want Wikipedia to act as an alternative to commercial sources, and preferably a really good one at that. Through extensive collaborative work and by respecting links and Sweden specific content the last unintegrated Swedish translation went live in May.
 * Dutch Dutch translation carries with it special difficulties, in part due to the premises in which the Dutch Wikipedia is built upon. There is great respect for what previous editors have created, and deleting or replacing old content can be frowned upon. In spite of this there are success stories: Anafylaxie.
 * Polish Translation and integration into Polish also comes with its own unique set of challenges. The Polish Wikipedia has long been independent and works very hard to create high quality contentfor Polish audience. Previous translation trouble has lead to use of unique templates with unique formatting, not least among citations. Add to this that the Polish Wikipedia does not allow template redirects and a large body of work is required for each article. (This is somewhat alleviated by a commissioned Template bot - to be released). - List of articles for integration
 * Arabic The Arabic Wikipedia community has been informed of the efforts to integrate content through both the general talk-page as well as through one of the major Arabic Wikipedia facebook-groups: مجتمع ويكيبيديا العربي, something that has been heralded with great enthusiasm.

Integration is the next step after any translation. Despite this it is by no means trivial, and it comes with its own hardships and challenges. Previously each new integrator has needed to dive into the fray with little help from previous integrations. Therefore we are creating guides for specific Wikis that make integration simple and straightforward, with guides for specific languages, and for integrating on small Wikis.

Instructions on how to integrate an article may be found here

Feature – Ebola articles
During August we have translated Disease and it is now live in more than 60 different languages! To help us focus on African languages Rubric has donated a large number of articles in languages we haven't previously reached–so a shout out them, and Ian Henderson from Rubric who's joined us here at Wikipedia. We're very happy for our continued collaboration with both Rubric and Translators without Borders!
 * Just some of our over 60 translations:


 * Xhosa
 * Northern Sotho
 * Zulu
 * Tsonga
 * Venda
 * Hausa
 * Igbo
 * Yoruba
 * Kinyarwanda
 * Swahili
 * Tigrinya

At Wikimania there were so many enthusiastic people jumping at the chance to help out the Medical Translation Project, but unfortunately not all of them knew how to get started. That is why we've been spending considerable time writing and improving guides! They are finally live, and you can find them at our home-page! We're proud to announce a new sign up page at WP:MTSIGNUP! The old page was getting cluttered and didn't allow you to speficy a role. The new page should be easier to sign up to, and easier to navigate so that we can reach you when you're needed! Translations are of both full articles and shorter articles continues. The process where short articles are chosen for translation hasn't been fully transparent. In the coming months we hope to have a first guide, so that anyone who writes medical or health articles knows how to get their articles to a standard where they can be translated! That's why we're currently working on medical good lede criteria! The idea is to have a similar peer review process to good article nominations, but only for ledes. -- CFCF  🍌 (email) 13:09, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:39, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Signpost exit poll
Dear Wikipedian, you recently voted in the ArbCom election. Your username, along with around 155 other usernames of your fellow Wikipedians, was randomly selected from the 2000+ Wikipedians who voted this year, with the help of one of the election-commissioners. If you are willing, could you please participate (at your option either on-wiki via userspace or off-wiki via email) in an exit poll, and answer some questions about how you decided amongst the ArbCom candidates?

If you decide to participate in this exit poll, the statistical results will be published in the Signpost, an online newspaper with over 1000 Wikipedians among the readership. There are about twelve questions, which have alphanumerical answers; it should take you a few minutes to complete the exit poll questionnaire, and will help improve Wikipedia by giving future candidates information about what you think is important. This is only an unofficial survey, and will have no impact on your actual vote during this election, nor in any future election.

All questions are individually optional, and this entire exit poll itself is also entirely optional, though if you choose not to participate, I would appreciate a brief reply indicating why you decided not to take part (see Question Zero). Thanks for being a Wikipedian

The questionnaire
Dear Wikipedian, please fill out these questions -- at your option via usertalk or via email, see Detailed Instructions at the end of the twelve questions -- by putting the appropriate answer in the blanks provided. If you decide not to answer a question (all questions are optional), please put the reason down: "undecided" / "private information" / "prefer not to answer" / "question is not well-posed" / "other: please specify". Although the Signpost cannot guarantee that complex answers can be processed for publication, it will help us improve future exit polls, if you give us comments about why you could not answer specific questions.
