About
Medical Wikipedia is a mobile app which provides offline access to health information on Wikipedia. It is an instance of the Wikipedia arm of Kiwix.

On June 10th, 2015 Wiki Project Med Foundation and Wikimedia Switzerland launched an android app that contains all of the English Wikipedia's health care content: including medical, anatomy, medication, and sanitation related articles as tagged by the respective WikiProjects. Since then, further language versions have followed. All versions of the app are available for download on Google Play.

This page is for collaboration to improve the existing versions and to launch new versions. The introduction page for the app is at WikiProject Medicine/Open Textbook of Medicine

Welcome to the Offline Medical Encyclopedia by Wikipedia. This is a complete collection of all health care, anatomy, and medication related topics from Wikipedia in an offline format. Like Wikipedia all content is open access, meaning that it is free to download, reuse, share, and build upon.

We are working to develop these apps in a number of languages. There are ongoing efforts to increase access to medical information in all languages in collaboration with Translators Without Borders among others. If you like this app and are interested in helping us make it better please join WikiProject Medicine or contact us directly.

Please keep in mind that this is volunteer generated content. While we try our best to make it as accurate as possible it is not perfect. Thus we request that you use common sense. James Heilman, MD, CCFP(EM) The Teams at WikiProject Medicine & Translators Without Borders
