Dupuytren's contracture

Hi Bongomatic,

Thank you for your feedback on the Dupuytren page. I edited it together with another student for a educational project of the Erasmus MC in Rotterdam. This is our first time working with Wikipedia, so especially the references were a bit of a challenge. I'm going to look at it again and try solve the problems with the references. I also will take a look at the style manual and our formulations.

Hi NHaenen

It is nice to see such attention paid to the article on Dupuytren's contracture. A couple of pointers.

• Check out Wikipedia:Citing sources and in particular, Wikipedia:Citing sources#Repeated citations, which explains how to automate—and make stylistically consistent with the guidelines—the numbering of repeated references to the same sources.
• Review Wikipedia:Manual of Style and in particular, MOS:FIRSTPERSON, which states that formulations other than uses of the first person such as "since we treat ..." are preferred.
• Also, Wikipedia:Citation templates might be of some use.

Happy editing, ^Bongo_matic 15:06, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
