Welcome to Wikipedia from the Wikiproject Medicine!

Welcome to Wikipedia and Wikiproject Medicine

Welcome to Wikipedia from Wikiproject Medicine (also known as WPMED).

We're a group of editors who strive to improve the quality of content about health here on Wikipedia, as part of the larger mission of Wikipedia to provide the public with articles that present accepted knowledge, created and maintained by a community of editors.

One of our members has noticed that you are interested in editing medical articles; it's great to have a new interested editor on board!

First, some basics about editing Wikipedia, which is a strange place behind the scenes; you may find some of the ways we operate to be surprising. Please take your time and understand how this place works. Here are some useful links, which have information to help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

  • Everything starts with the mission - the mission of Wikipedia is to provide the public with articles that summarize accepted knowledge, working in a community of editors. (see WP:NOT)
  • We find "accepted knowledge" for biomedical information in sources defined by WP:MEDRS -- we generally use literature reviews published in good journals or statements by major medical or scientific bodies and we generally avoid using research papers, editorials, and popular media as sources for such content. We read MEDRS sources and summarize them, giving the most space and emphasis (what we call WP:WEIGHT) to the most prevalent views found in MEDRS sources.
  • Please see WPMED's "how to" guide for editing content about health
  • More generally please see The five pillars of Wikipedia and please be aware of the "policies and guidelines" that govern what we do here; these have been generated by the community itself over the last fifteen years, and you will need to learn them (which is not too hard, it just takes some time). Documents about Wikipedia - the "back office" - reside in "Wikipedia space" where document titles are preceded by "Wikipedia:" (often abbreviated "WP:"). WP space is separate from "article space" (also called "mainspace") - the document at WP:CONSENSUS is different from, and serves as a different purpose than, the document at Consensus.

Every article and page in Wikipedia has an associated talk page, and these pages are essential because we editors use them to collaborate and work out disagreements. (This is your Talk page, associated with your user page.) When you use a Talk page, you should sign your name by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your comment; the Wikipedia software will automatically convert that into links to your Userpage and this page and will add a datestamp. This is how we know who said what. We also "thread" comments in a way that you will learn with time. Please see the Talk Page Guidelines to learn how to use talk pages.

  • Thanks for coming aboard! We always appreciate a new editor. Feel free to leave us a message at any time on our talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. You can also just add our talk page to your watchlist and join in discussions that interest you. Please leave a message on the WPMED talk page if you have any problems, suggestions, would like review of an article, need suggestions for articles to edit, or would like some collaboration when editing!
  • Wikipedia is a kingdom full of a wide variety of editors with different interests, skills, and knowledge. We all manage to get along through a lot of discussion that happens under the scenes and through the bold, edit, discuss editing cycle. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss it on an article's talk page or post a message on the WPMED talk page.

Feel free to drop a note below if you have any problems. I wish you all the best here in Wikipedia! Jytdog (talk) 21:11, 31 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Draft:Brain cysts

edit

Thanks for starting Draft:Brain cysts. I fixed some of the formatting, including making short section headings for the table of contents. Please feel free to change any of the headings, but try to keep them somewhat short.

I think you might have an easier time with formatting if you switch to the visual editor. When you edit that draft again, you'll have a blue editing toolbar. Look on the right corner for an icon that looks like a pencil. If you click that, then you'll switch to the visual editor. It works more like a regular word processor.

I wonder whether you'd like to have this be lists, instead of paragraphs. I'll pick a section and add list formatting so you can see what I mean.

And in the meantime, you might like reading Wikipedia:Ten Simple Rules for Editing Wikipedia, which explains a few of our quirks to people who are more familiar with the writing standards for scientific journals. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:04, 3 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Draft: Brain cysts.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Resubmitting this draft without having responded to the requests concerning section headings (don't use your own numbering - let the TOC do that for you) and otherwise ignoring the comments of reviewers was tendentious and may result in a block.
