The first edition of The Pulse has been released. The Pulse will be a regular newsletter documenting the goings-on at WPMED, including ongoing collaborations, discussions, articles, and each edition will have a special focus. That newsletter is here.
The newsletter has been sent to the talk pages of WP:MED members bearing the ((User WPMed)) template. To opt-out, please leave a message here or simply remove your name from the mailing list. Because this is the first issue, we are still finding out feet. Things like the layout and content may change in subsequent editions. Please let us know what you think, and if you have any ideas for the future, by leaving a message here.

Wikiproject Medicine; Translation Taskforce
This is the first of a series of newsletters for Wikiproject Medicine's Translation Task Force. Our goal is to make all the medical knowledge on Wikipedia available to the world, in the language of your choice.
note: you will not receive future editions of this newsletter unless you *sign up*; you received this version because you identify as a member of WikiProject MedicineSpotlight - Simplified article translation
Wikiproject Medicine started translating simplified articles in February 2014. We now have 45 simplified articles ready for translation, of which the first on African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness has been translated into 46 out of ~100 languages. This list does not include the 33 additional articles that are available in both full and simple versions.
Our goal is to eventually translate 1,000 simplified articles. This includes:
We are looking for subject area leads to both create articles and recruit further editors. We need people with basic medical knowledge who are willing to help out. This includes to write, translate and especially integrate medical articles.
What's happening?
I've (CFCF) taken on the role of community organizer for this project, and will be working with this until December. The goals and timeline can be found here, and are focused on getting the project on a firm footing and to enable me to work near full-time over the summer, and part-time during the rest of the year. This means I will be available for questions and ideas, and you can best reach me by mail or on my talk page.
For those going to London in a month's time (or those already nearby) there will be at least one event for all medical editors, on Thursday August 7th. See the event page, which also summarizes medicine-related presentations in the main conference. Please pass the word on to your local medical editors.
There has previously been some resistance against translation into certain languages with strong Wikipedia presence, such as Dutch, Polish, and Swedish.
What was found is that thre is hardly any negative opinion about the the project itself; and any such critique has focused on the ways that articles have being integrated. For an article to be usefully translated into a target-Wiki it needs to be properly Wiki-linked, carry proper citations and use the formatting of the chosen target language as well as being properly proof-read. Certain large Wikis such as the Polish and Dutch Wikis have strong traditions of medical content, with their own editorial system, own templates and different ideas about what constitutes a good medical article. For example, there are not MEDRS (Polish,German,Romanian,Persian) guidelines present on other Wikis, and some Wikis have a stronger background of country-specific content.
Integration is the next step after any translation. Despite this it is by no means trivial, and it comes with its own hardships and challenges. Previously each new integrator has needed to dive into the fray with little help from previous integrations. Therefore we are creating guides for specific Wikis that make integration simple and straightforward, with guides for specific languages, and for integrating on small Wikis.
Instructions on how to integrate an article may be found here [3]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited High anion gap metabolic acidosis, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Critical care. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:16, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Stop adding your own analysis to Wikipedia as you have done at List of political punk songs and Punk subculture. Such edits are a violation of WP:No original research or WP:SYNTH.
At List of political punk songs, the whole page lacked good sourcing, so it was already a dumpster fire. You added your own section about the band NOFX, asserting characteristics of the band's music that were not supported by WP:SECONDARY sourcing. And you listed a bunch of songs that you selected yourself, citing only YouTube videos. This edit was a violation of both NOR and SYNTH. At Punk subculture, you added[4] some text about NOFX again, this time adding some poor sources such as getsongbpm.com and a blog. After that, you determined yourself that Bad Religion and NOFX were relevant to the topic, listing a lengthy song conducted by Baz. It was your own thinking that you published, telling the readers about how punk songs can be short or long. Another violation of NOR. Binksternet (talk) 02:34, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi, DrKC_MD. You seem to be aware of the civility policy, since you advise Binksternet to read it. Binksternet has spoken civilly to you, whereas you address him mainly via personal attacks ("Please take your petty harassment someplace else", "I don't know what is wrong with your life", "I have much better things to do with my time than to deal with your personality issues"). Please read Wikipedia:No personal attacks; if you make another one, you are likely to be blocked. Bishonen | tålk 22:29, 3 April 2024 (UTC).
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Women in punk rock. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Please stop adding a band you happen to like to the article, they do NOT meet the criteria for inclusion as a featured band as has been stated in edit summaries several times. Read the criteria. The article cannot include everyone's favorite band, that is not the purpose of an encyclopedia article. Please use social media or fandom instead. Netherzone (talk) 19:04, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Second Warning - STOP edit warring on Women in punk rock. The band you keep adding does NOT meet the criteria established by consensus over the years for inclusion criteria. The Linda Lindas are not "heavy hitters with decades-long careers". They have only been active from 2018 to the present, just over five years. Just because you may happen to like the band is not a reason to continue to edit war to change the article to your own preferred version. It is strongly suggested that you self-revert, and instead follow the BRD guidance on the article talk page. Use Fandom or Social Media instead to promote your favorite band, or improve that band's WP article. The Women in punk rock article is historical, it is not the right place for promotional additions, the Linda Linda's do not fit the criteria for the article. Read the criteria. Netherzone (talk) 19:50, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
This article is to include only female punk musicians that have articles and that are properly cited - SIGCOV in at least two or three reliable sources. The "featured" artists are those who are heavy hitters with careers several decades long or are widely known internationally and their genre is primarily punk rock, not pop punk not grunge, not alternative rock, etc. No red links, all artists must have a main article. If their career is shorter or they are lesser known, they might belong in the "Other artists" subsections. No redlinks in this subsection either. This article is NOT a list article, therefore it cannot support listing every single woman punk artist that has ever existed.
Wikipedia does not require bands to have decades of impact. Please confer with the actual criteria.
DrKC MD (talk) 00:26, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on Women in punk rock. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people.
I am not a “vandal,” nor "living under a rock" nor am I some random person who does “not know who they are” nor do I not “have an ounce of insight.” Please stop making personal attacks and edit warring.
Dr.K, I have been assume good faith, yet you are not following WP:BRD - a talk page discussion should have been opened by you after your bold edits were disputed. You don’t have consensus for this highly promotional and ref-bombed content. And now are resorting to insults.
When you finally did use the talk page, your two unsigned or time stamped comments were buried among others from 2017. Thank you for starting a convo and BTW I moved them for you. But then again, you reverted me added back your preferred – and disputed – content. Not cool.
There was prior discussion and consensus on what this specific article was to include : The "featured" artists are those who are heavy hitters with careers several decades long or are widely known internationally and their genre is primarily punk rock, not pop punk not grunge, not alternative rock, etc. If their career is shorter or they are lesser known, they might belong in the "Other artists" subsections.
This has kept it free from promotionalism/spam over the years. Your band has only been around 5 years, are not heavy hitters nor had a long-standing historical impact. The criteria you quote above is for general notability, for example in AfD discussions. No one is disputing the Linda Linda’s notability, this just is not the correct article to promote them. Dr.K, you have the very real option to create a new article on Women punk musicians in the 2020s and add whatever you like there. Netherzone (talk) 16:40, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Binksternet (talk) 03:47, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Editors are expected to treat each other with respect and civility. On this encyclopedia project, editors assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not appear to do at Women in punk rock. Here is Wikipedia's welcome page, and it is hoped that you will assume the good faith of other editors and continue to help us improve Wikipedia! Please do not make false accusations, as you did at the RPP noticeboard accusing me of making a personal attack, and as you have done on Binksternet's talk page. I did not, whatsoever, make a personal attack. Additionally, do not add PP templates to articles when you do not have the relevant user permissions to do or erroneously accuse other editors of vandalism.

This edit, where you accuse your opponents of vandalism, of editing as "cronies" and of tag-teaming, and of reverting "any changes that he doesn't personally approve of", defending his "pet page", being "high-handed and condescending", etcetera, is an unfair and pretty nasty attack on the good faith of fellow editors.
