Color edit
The color in the headers is #FBA16C, Apricot which is the academic uniform color for nursing.
Maybe this is the colour in the US but I've never heard of it in the UK. — Rod talk 17:24, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
COTM & To Do boxes edit
I've just noticed you've done a "to do" box on here - I've done one at Wikipedia:WikiProject Nursing which can be imported into other pages - can we synchronise them so that we use the same one on both pages & any edits made on one show up on the other? I've also done a "collaboration of the month" box & put it onto the portal page - hope that is OK— Rod talk 21:05, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
Absolutely!! All of my efforts were meant as a starting point & to encourage others to contribute. -THB 21:59, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for mentioing the wikiproject here - some users may find this a more accesible abnd active starting point to become involved. Tradimus (talk) 00:47, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
Query about to-do list edit
I noticed that psychiatric and mental health nursing has been on the to-do list as a copyedit for some time. Having reviewed it, I am not sure it particularly needs one. Any objections to removing it from the list? --Vince 17:29, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Use of Red Cross edit
I understand that the use of the red cross is exclusively for the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to protect the meaning of it. Is it allowed to be used?

I dedicated a nursing logo to the public domain using blue lettering from the word "Nursing" in the shape of an oil lamp, similar to the lamp symbol used by the american nurses association and the international council of nurses. I uploaded it as an SVG at http://openclipart.org/detail/167666/nursing-by-bedpanner I understand that the nursing professiona may prefer to work under the banner of a cheerful yellow tea-pot. 120.145.147.74 (talk) 12:42, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
It may be a good place to note that the sword with two winged serpents, the wand of caduceus has been mistakenly used by the united states army as a symbol for medicine, but neither this nor the original single serpent without wings, the wand of Asclepius represents nursing.

Notice from the Portals WikiProject edit
WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals. So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely, — The Transhumanist 07:40, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
