My name is Dr Thomas Lechner and I am working as a Medical Advisor at Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH in Germany.

My intent is to provide information to the editors of Wikipedia for their use in Boehringer Ingelheim related pharmaceutical articles to help ensure that Wikipedia users receive accurate and balanced information.

I understand the main Wikipedia Policies and Guidelines http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Policies_and_guidelines - including the Neutral Point of View http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV and the Conflict of Interest section http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest.

My edits will be mainly related to medical and scientific information and will be limited to non-controversial edits or proposals on the “Talk” pages in the “Discussion” area. I will try to never directly edit any Boehringer Ingelheim related article and as an alternative I hope to enlist the help of other users to assess my suggestions for improved content.

Note: Potential adverse events from the usage of any Boehringer Ingelheim product should be directly reported to a healthcare professional and/or to the local authorities.

If there are any questions, you can please contact me on my talk page.
