Heyde's syndrome

Thanks for those terrific edits on Heyde's syndrome. It's travelled a long way since I created it in 2004, but it looks fabulous now. Keep up the good work! JFW | T@lk 21:11, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks JFW! And thanks so much for creating the article all that time ago. I tried to maintain everything that was in there already, and just expand it. I hope I didn't screw anything up! :-)

Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia and Wikiproject Medicine

Welcome to Wikipedia. We have compiled a list of guidance for students and new editors:

  1. Use high quality sources for medical content. This is described at WP:MEDRS. High quality sources include review articles (note this is not the same as peer reviewed), position statements from national and internationally recognized bodies (think CDC, WHO, NICE, FDA, etc), and major medical textbooks. Lower quality sources may be removed.
  2. References go after not before punctuation (see WP:MOS)
  3. We use very few capital letters and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
  4. Do not use the url from the inside net of your university library. The rest of the world cannot see it.
  5. If you use textbooks we need page numbers.
  6. Please format your references as explained at WP:MEDHOW or like the ones already in the article. This is simple once you get the PMID / ISBN.
  7. Every sentence can be referenced. We reference more densely than other sources.
  8. Never "copy and paste" from sources. We run copy and paste detection software on new edits.
  9. Section order typically follows the instructions here at WP:MEDMOS
  10. Please talk to us. Wikipedia works by collaboration and this takes place on the talk pages of both articles and user.

Again welcome and thank you for joining us.

P.S. Please share this with your fellow learners and instructors.
