Working with the community edit

When you edit medical topics, you are submitting work to a group of editors with a sincere commitment to accuracy on Wikipedia's medical pages.

Keep in mind:

  • Wikipedia's sourcing requirements may seem counterintuitive at times, but they are designed to prevent confusing verification issues.
  • Experienced editors sometimes treat medical content with a sense of urgency. That's because bad information on medicine, wherever it appears, is dangerous.
