- We have some article in Persian that could use your help including here http://fa.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D8%AA%D8%A8_%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%86%DA%AF Many thanks Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 20:25, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
Hi, if you take a moment to look to the WoK homepage, you'll see that: 1/ The page name (above in your browser) is "Web of Knowledge", 2/ the name given on top of the page is "Web of Knowledge", 3/ in the right hand bottom corner, visitors are invited to "Subscribe to the Web of Knowledge RSS feed." In addition, you're based at a university, so you probably have access to this database and if you take a minute to go there, you'll see that there, too, it is exclusively referred to as "Web of Knowledge". Only in the first line of the info page do we see: "Thomson Reuters (formerly ISI) Web of Knowledge". I interpret this as meaning something like "The Thomson Reuters service Web of Knowledge". In a similar way, one could refer to "Elsevier's Scopus", even though the name for that database is just "Scopus". I'm going to move the page back, unless you can give me an unambiguous source that proves that "Thomson Reuters" is part of the name of this database. Thanks. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 12:47, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for accurate reasoning, but what caused that I change title was conventional product naming that great companies uses: such as Google Chrome, Google Scholar and so on. I think Thomson Reuters has decided using this brand for his product, You can see this brand in the About page. However maybe you're right, maybe it's soon for changing in Wikipedia. --غلامرضا باقری (talk) 13:14, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
We can also see this name changing in all documents of Thomson Reuters such as list of product page. I think we should use official name of product. غلامرضا باقری (talk) 13:35, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
- On the "about" page, they use both "Thomson Reuters WoK" and "WoK". On the product page they use "Thomson Reuters (ISI) WoK". This is not comparable to the other examples that you give, which are always referred to as "Google Scholar" or "Google Chrome". As far as I can see, the official name for the product is simply "WoK", which is on the info page and on the start page of the database itself. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 14:35, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
- I think it's not necessary that they use always complete brand, as Microsoft use Word, Office and so on alone in it's website but article title in Wikipedia is Microsoft Word. غلامرضا باقری (talk)
- Good point, even though I'm still not convinced. I have asked DGG to have a look at this issue, he's a librarian and an expert in these things. BTW, it took me a while before I could place a link on his talk page to this page, as your user name suddenly makes my cursor go in the opposite direction... --Guillaume2303 (talk) 17:46, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
- Great, Sorry for my bad username, It has written with Persian Alphabet. I have a question about meaning of these phrases, Does these mean possession status?

Feature – Ebola articles edit
During August we have translated Disease and it is now live in more than 60 different languages! To help us focus on African languages Rubric has donated a large number of articles in languages we haven't previously reached–so a shout out them, and Ian Henderson from Rubric who's joined us here at Wikipedia. We're very happy for our continued collaboration with both Rubric and Translators without Borders!
- Just some of our over 60 translations:
- New roles and guides!
At Wikimania there were so many enthusiastic people jumping at the chance to help out the Medical Translation Project, but unfortunately not all of them knew how to get started. That is why we've been spending considerable time writing and improving guides! They are finally live, and you can find them at our home-page!
- New sign up page!
We're proud to announce a new sign up page at WP:MTSIGNUP! The old page was getting cluttered and didn't allow you to speficy a role. The new page should be easier to sign up to, and easier to navigate so that we can reach you when you're needed!
- Style guides for translations
Translations are of both full articles and shorter articles continues. The process where short articles are chosen for translation hasn't been fully transparent. In the coming months we hope to have a first guide, so that anyone who writes medical or health articles knows how to get their articles to a standard where they can be translated! That's why we're currently working on medical good lede criteria! The idea is to have a similar peer review process to good article nominations, but only for ledes.
- Some more stats
- In July, 18 full article translations went live (WP:RTT), and an additional 6 simplified versions went live (WP:RTTS)!
- We have a number of new lead integrators into Dutch, Polish, Arabic and Bulgarian, with more to come in smaller languages! (Find them here old sign up page)
- We were mentioned in a Global Voices Online report by Subhashish Panigrahi at Doctors and translators are working together to bridge Wikipedia's medical language gap
- New medical professionals have started, dedicated to working in Odiya and Kinyarwanda!
