Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Schizoaffective disorder may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for October 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Schizoaffective disorder, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page DSM (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Just a heads up

I ran the general fixes and followed it up with the citation bot. This at first may seem highly unusual and look like I am deleting references, but it is actually combining the duplicate citations under a single reference name; it makes checking the references easier. The next part is the expansion; citing additional information from those references including additional authors and adding additional links to the content in the DOI listings. Doing these changes represented about a 10% reduction in the size of the page while improving its referencing. Hope you like it, you will see that the changes also make future referencing easier. If you have a problem, please undo them and do as you wish, but I think you will notice the reduced loading and processing of the pages and the improvements to the referencing as more than useful.

Was wondering

Since you seem to be an expert in the field of mental disorders, I was wondering if you could point me to some good places that I can grab some sources for dyslexia. That article is a mess and I want to fix it up a bit. I don't have access to much; but I can likely get them with some effort through the Wikipedia resource exchange program and my local library. As it stands; the dyslexia article is not really comprehensive and a bit rough - it is also an extremely important article. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 03:39, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Refs

Welcome to Wikipedia. We write a little differently here then in many academic venues. For example per WP:MEDRS we use secondary sources rather than primary ones. This articles [1] while likely peer reviewed is not a review article or secondary source.

Also pleases read WP:MEDMOS. We are writing for neither patients nor fellow MD and thus do not generally use terms like "patient" but rather say "people with X". Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 07:26, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And now for the silly

Since you've seen what I did with DVT, how about you also see this? ;-) In other words, don't be intimidated by a large project like rewriting a long article. That's a big job! Sometimes we can find smaller articles to start or existing articles to touch up. I also started prothrombin G20210A from scratch. Anyhow, welcome! Feel free to play around with things, because you can't break articles. Best. Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 18:19, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation join the new Physiology Wikiproject!

Physiology gives us an understanding of how and why things in the field of medicine happen. Together, let us jumpstart the project and get it going. Our energy is all it needs.

Based on the long felt gap for categorization and improvization of WP:MED articles relating to the field of physiology, the new WikiProject Physiology has been created. WikiProject Physiology is still in its infancy and needs your help. On behalf of a group of editors striving to improve the quality of physiology articles here on Wikipedia, I would like to invite you to come on board and participate in the betterment of physiology related articles. Help us to jumpstart this WikiProject.

  • Feel free to leave us a message at any time on the WikiProkect Physiology talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. Please leave a message on the 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!
  • You can tag the talk pages of relevant articles with {{WikiProject Physiology|class=|importance=}} with your assessment of the article class and importance alongwith. Please note that WP:Physiology, WP:Physio, WP:Phy can be used interchangeably.
  • You will make a big difference to the quality of information by adding reliable sources. Sourcing physiology articles is essential and makes a big difference to the quality of articles. And, while you're at it, why not use a book to source information, which can source multiple articles at once!
  • We try and use a standard way of arranging the content in each article. That layout is here. These headings let us have a standard way of presenting the information in anatomical articles, indicate what information may have been forgotten, and save angst when trying to decide how to organise an article. That said, this might not suit every article. If in doubt, be bold!
  • Why not try and strive to create a good article! Physiology related articles are often small in scope, have available sources, and only a limited amount of research available that is readily presentable!
  • Your contributions to the WikiProject page, related categories and templates is also welcome.
  • To invite other editors to this WikiProject, copy and past this template (with the signature):

Hoping for your cooperation! DiptanshuTalk 12:27, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
