Spamwatch
Welcome to the Wikipedia! edit
Welcome to the Wikipedia, Spamwatch! And thanks for removing the spam from the Evidence-based medicine article. Hope you enjoy editing here and becoming a Wikipedian! Here are some perfunctory tips to hasten your acculturation into the Wikipedia experience:
- Take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial and Manual of Style.
- When you have time, take a look at The five pillars of Wikipedia, and assume good faith, but keep in mind the unique style you brought to the Wiki!
- Always keep the notion of NPOV in mind, be respectful of others' POV, and remember your unique perspective on the meaning of neutrality is invaluable!
- If you need any help, post your question at the Help Desk.
- Explore, be bold in editing, and, above all else, have fun!
Some odds and ends: Boilerplate text, Brilliant prose, Cite your sources, Civility, Conflict resolution, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Pages needing attention, Peer review, Policy Library, Utilities, Verifiability, Village pump, Wikiquette, and you can sign your name on any page by typing 4 tildes: ~~~~.
Best of luck, Spamwatch, and have fun! Ombudsman 03:27, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
Notability edit
Whilst I agree the claims for the dermatology practice, if substantiated, might form basis for WP:Notability, that must be provided by secondary WP:reliable sources; which does not included clinic's own claims nor links to its own website blogs. Restored notability tagging, the article currenlty reads as an advert and is liable for deletion nomination (WP:AfD) or even speedy removal. David Ruben Talk 01:12, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
Though I understand why you have chosen to tag WP:Notability, and why you flag the potential of an advert, I do not perceive this entry as such. Though it is difficult to prove an advert (or lack of) by exclusions, I do think that the exclusions here are notable, in that specific reference to the practitioners, address, phone, etc are not mentioned (nor was an attempt made to mention in the history of this entry). Instead, the entry focuses on items that are certainly novel to me, as a health care provider, and certainly timely if one looks at the press of others physicians utilizing technology to their patients advantage such as http://www.jayparkinsonmd.com/ who has been on CNN, ABC, and NPR.
I for one, and looking forward to seeing the evolution here. "Spamwatch 16:55, 15 November 2007 (UTC)"
I agree with you, and have indicated so on the discussion page of this article. 00:28, 29 November 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dermadoc (talk • contribs)
