Confirmed status

Hello Ryan1514, I've added confirmed access to your account. Regarding the Constipation article, please edit with care - this page was protected due to frequent vandalism. Additionally, when editing medical articles there is a generally accepted style, including more stringent standards for references than many other topics. Please see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Medicine-related articles for the guidelines. Happy editing, — xaosflux Talk 02:02, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]


Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia and Wikiproject Medicine

Welcome to Wikipedia. We have compiled some guidance for new healthcare editors:

  1. Use high-quality sources for medical content (see WP:MEDRS). High-quality sources include review articles (which are not the same as peer-reviewed), position statements from nationally and internationally recognized bodies (like CDC, WHO, FDA), and major medical textbooks. Lower-quality sources are typically removed.
  2. Reference tags generally go after punctuation, not before; there is no preceding space.
  3. We use very few capital letters and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
  4. Common terms are not usually wikilinked; nor are years, dates, or names of countries and major cities.
  5. Do not use URLs from your university library's internal net: the rest of the world cannot see them.
  6. Include page numbers when referencing a book or long journal article.
  7. Format references consistently within an article and be sure to cite the PMID for journal articles and ISBN for books; see WP:MEDHOW.
  8. Never copy and paste from sources; we run detection software on new edits.
  9. The ordering of sections typically follows the instructions at WP:MEDMOS.
  10. Think carefully before working on featured articles (these have a gold star at top right). It is often hard to improve featured articles.
  11. Talk to us! Wikipedia works by collaboration at articles and user talkpages.

Once again, welcome, and thank you for joining us. Please share these guidelines with other new editors.
