The Pharmacology Collaboration of the Month is a project of WikiProject Pharmacology in an effort to improve drug-related articles on wikipedia. Articles may be selected every week or every two weeks, depending on the article and the present situation, to be collaborated on by editors. The article may or may not yet exist. The topics should include anything related to Pharmacology; it could either be an article about a specific drug, or an article about a drug process, drug design, or a particular class of drugs. The aim is to have a featured-standard article by the end of the period through widespread cooperative editing.

The project aims to fill gaps in Wikipedia, to give users a focus and to give us all something to be proud of. Any registered user can nominate and vote on articles (see Voting below). This collaboration uses approval voting. You do not have to be a professional in the field of pharmacology or medicine to participate; the opinion of laypeople is valued both for article suggestions and to help ensure that articles are not too technical. New articles will be selected every Wednesday (see the record of previous collaborations). This collaboration is still new; rules may change or be bent as we find our footing.

Voting[edit]

Please vote in favor of as many candidates as you like; oppose votes have no effect (approval voting is used). Any registered user may vote for an article, provided that account's first edit occurred before the nomination. You do not have to have any special knowledge of pharmacology or medicine to nominate or vote for an article.

To vote for an article, simply edit the appropriate section by adding # ~~~~, and increment the votes= counter in ((RxCOTW)).

If you believe that a topic does not fall within the scope of this project, please mention your objections in the "Comments" section. Every Wednesday, the article currently with the most votes will be selected to be the new collaboration, although collaborations may be extended from time to time (for instance, during featured article candidacy). In the case of a tie, the article nominated first will be selected. Articles not selected must receive at least two votes per week to remain in consideration. If a nomination fails to achieve sufficient votes, it may be renominated after at least two weeks. You may wish to see the archive of successful nominations.
