Think through the following stimulus questions (that will be repeated during Amin’s intro session): Read over the WikiProject Medicine page, review the top 100 importance articles, which are listed at Book:Health care, and you can also see the WP:MED1500 to brainstorm about which article you think you should work on to have the maximum benefit to society. You do not need to select from this list, but regardless, try to narrow down your topic of interest to a short list of 3 possibilities.
 * How popular is wikipedia compared with other internet sites?
 * Do people turn to wikipedia for medical information, and if so, who and how often?

 * Do you feel comfortable using wikipedia for medical content?
 * Do you feel comfortable sharing the wikipedia medical content with patients? Why or why not?
