notability

This article needs a few references from medical journal or news articles to show its notability. Please avoid press releases made by the company making the product, except to source statements made by the company about itself, per WP:SELFPUB --Enric Naval (talk) 22:33, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Critical Evaluation

Although this article lacks references, the authors have endeavoured to comply with Wikipedia style and formatting guidelines in respect with bold title heading, clear and concise introductory paragraph to explain the purpose of the subject, and as well providing key concepts linking to other Wikipedia articles. In addition, the article also provided an external link to Medicomp Systems to enable readers to do further research on the subject.

Overall, the information provided in this article is well presented with accurate facts but it can be further improved by including references to support the accuracy and validity of the subject presented.

Referring to the article’s history, it indicates that the content was written in Feb 2007 and since then the article has not been updated with the most recent relevant information.

So as to further enhance and expand the information in this article, the following suggestions for improvement may be considered:

• Update the article with additional recent information from Medicomp Systems website including recent news articles.
• Ensure the article is readable and make it as interesting as possible to capture a wider audience.
• Limit the number of technical jargon to enable readers who are unfamiliar with the subject to follow the article.
• Provide wikilinks for technical terms.

Feedback

There is good use of references, particularly those from Medcorp. It may be worth seeing if you can incorporate some references from other sources too.

Some things that could perhaps be further qualified in the article are:

• Is MEDCIN a vocabulary as in a defined set of terms (terminology), or is it a similar to a coding system? I am pretty sure it is a terminology, but this could be further defined in the article.
• Does the MEDCIN terminology operate on a linear or poly-heirarchy?
• Is MEDCIN able to be used with applications not developed by Medcorp or is it only for use with the developers products. Conversely, are Medcorp application users locked into using MEDCIN terminology?
• How does MEDCIN integrate with "most" EHR and legacy systems?
• In terms of the CCC system, is this a stand alone EHR or EHR module? Good use of a picture for the CCC system.
  
  

In terms of the article overall, be careful to steer clear of it becoming an add for Medcorp. The use of additional sources may help with this.

To ensure that the article is in keeping with Wikipedia conventions, you may need to change your heading colour to black.

I hope this is helpful. Sharna Smith (talk) 11:40, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
