 * WikiProject Medicine Newsletter

Happy February everyone. I hope the new year is starting to look better than the last one did. As always, if you have any ideas to improve the newsletter, please post them at the talkpage. Otherwise, here is what's happening around the project:

News from around the site
 * Another discussion has closed, with consensus supporting continued use of the phrase "committed suicide" in articles.
 * The Medicine Collaboration of the Month for February is Cirrhosis. Head to Talk:Cirrhosis to coordinate our efforts. You can nominate future collaborations at WP:MCOTM.
 * This month's target maintenance backlog is "articles that need more wikilinks". Just 65 medicine pages have Underlinked on them, so hopefully we can clean them all up this month.
 * , longtime and prolific editor on medicine and television/film topics, has died. You can read a brief reflection on her Wikipedia work here, and leave condolences at her talk page.

Discussions of interest
 * Continued discussion on the role of subject-specific notability guidelines at Wikipedia talk:Notability.
 * An ongoing effort to trim talk page banners has brought us a discussion regarding whether English variant notices should be converted to editnotices.
 * An ongoing discussion at WT:MED considers spinning out parts of the infobox for medicines/drugs into other templates.
