Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine/Newsletter/June 2020


 * Issue 1&mdash;June 2020


 * WikiProject Medicine Newsletter


 * Welcome to the test issue of the newsletter!

News from around the site
 * A recent arbitration case has authorized discretionary sanctions for discussions/edits regarding drug pricing.
 * A Spring backlog drive at Good article nominations has reduced the number of outstanding nominations by more than half and drastically reduced the wait time for review! It's a great time to nominate a page, or to chip in by reviewing from the biology & medicine queue.

Discussions of interest For a list of ongoing discussions in WP:MED-tagged articles, see WikiProject Medicine/Discussions Also, a reminder to see Article Alerts for a list of medicine-related AfDs, CfDs, merge discussions, and more!
 * A question regarding incorporating machine-readable disease codes into more medical articles was raised at VPP
 * A request for help updating Parkinson's disease, which was promoted to FA in 2011, is at Talk:Parkinson's disease.
 * The formal featured article review for Huntington's disease has been re-started after a two-month pause. They're seeking editors willing to help update the article, here.

A short feature section goes here Maybe usually on some current event that impacts editing here? An obvious first candidate is covid, the proliferation of covid-related pages, and an influx of new editors interested in the topic. On months where no one is interested in writing a feature, the newsletter would get sent without one. No big deal.
