Hi DocJames! I'm contacting all the members of the task force because we need some more votes for our properties. If you have about 10 minutes please visit
d:Wikidata:Property_proposal/Term. After they have enough votes I can create them and a bot operator can start gathering information.
If you want to help with increasing the visibility of the data-project you can add {{User Wikidata Medicine}} to your user page. All the best! (Watching your talk page and the task force talk page) --

Wernicke encephalopathy.
Hi, following the criteria established in most of the literature, diagnosis reaches only about 10% of the cases, clinically and humanly unacceptable. The case on which I base my research over 10 years, initially only showed hyperhidrosis, hypothermia, and asthenia, and later was on his way to death. He now have an almost normal life. In Wernicke's encephalopathy, "exceptional symptoms are the majority. " Fortunately, my blog has provoked the interest of Prof. Sechi (a reference in WE), of the British Medical Journals (who has asked to review other neurological work in 2013), and of several other prof. When young, I had to study French, English, Italian and Latin, in addition to Spanish, so I do not master any. Thank you for your corrections of language. I have gathered much information, and own conclusions about WE, that it's hard to select and sort on a single page. It is surprising that a widespread disease known so little and so badly. The vocation of service conflicts with the rules of disclosure systems. But I'm retired and do not want formal complications. I appreciate the corrections, ordering, and the help of doctors like you. Remains much to do about WE, as clarify the brawl with beriberi (eg WE = cerebral beriberi, PMID: 17639753). Thanks, cheers. Luis ……………………………………………………………………………………….. In Wikipedia there are 3 pages on the same subject, Korsakoff's psychosis, I think it is just another serious presentation of WE. The 3 pages are: Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, and Korsakoff's syndrome. Luis cerni ( talk) 16:20, 18 June 2013 (UTC) |
Are you familiar with Medical apps? I certainly wasn't until I heard this story on NPR, and said to myself - this is something Wikipedia must have - but probably doesn't. I couldn't find anything - except perhaps what might be called "pre-spam." It will be a bear to write, attract lots of spam, and require very careful consideration of NPOV. Also being an expert might help - which is why I'm contacting you.
Once I've cleared the decks of other things I need to do (3 or 4 days?) I'll probably give it a go. Any help appreciated.

Hi there,
You recently used a bot (TW I think) to revert a cut-and-paste section in the Earthquake article, but your bot also overwrote a subsequent edit that I had made to the article. Normally you would be warned and have to confirm before reverting multiple edits, but that might not work with bots, I don't know. I have fixed the article by redoing my fix, but left out the inappropriately copied section. I believe wiki-etiquette dictates that you should repair the page so that the inappropriate edit is removed but my subsequent proper edit remains. Anyway, I've fixed it already, but I thought I'd leave you a note because maybe you didn't realize that happened, or maybe your bot is misbehaving. Also so that you know I don't intend to get into a revert war with you over a redlink.
Cheers and happy editing! Ivanvector ( talk) 22:34, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi James. Regarding User talk:KhabarNegar#June 2013, if you understand that the editor must now limit himself to those conditions (numbered 1-3), it would help if they are logged in WP:RESTRICT. Generally an editor who is under a new topic ban will go through a few rounds of misunderstanding before it sinks in. Having it logged can help. Also the logging will be informative to other admins if anyone else ever needs to enforce it. Your conditions don't say whether the ban includes talk pages.

Hello, I hope I am doing this correctly. Thank you for your diligence on Wikipedia. The charity Facial Palsy UK is an official charity set up to support people with facial palsy, it is backed by an extensive team of medical professionals and is neutral with no promotion of individual hospitals or practitioners. We get enquiries from all over the world because we are the only charity to support anyone affected by facial palsy for any reason. We are desperately trying to raise awareness for people affected by the condition, they have been until now been without much support at all, even the medical profession see the problem as cosmetic when it has an immense psychological impact. I see Cancer Research UK is linked under Organisations on the cancer research page, so I don't understand the difference. Our only purpose is to reach out to people and support them. Before the charity was set up I had the website www.facialnervepalsy.com which was created with support from surgeons and health professionals across the world. However, I did not add timeliness to the website or make it clear the information was checked by medical experts. I see you have removed this link also now, it has been on Wikipedia for two or three years and has helped a lot of people because they found others in a similar situation, facial paralysis is an awfully lonely condition to have. I do feel that it is right this should be removed now though because Facial Palsy UK is the better site, it does have every page marked for timeliness, we are recognized as an authority on the subject and every page has been checked by experts in the field, you can see our extensive medical advisory board on the website. There is so much poor information about Bell's palsy on the internet, such as facial exercise programmes, someone even brought out an iPhone App, yet it is so important that people are seen by a medical expert rather than try to do exercises they find on YouTube or download in an App. We are trying to sway the tide of bad information out there and ensure people take the correct medical advice. Some beauticians in hairdressers are even setting themselves up with neuro-stimulators and saying they can cure Bell's palsy, this is the kind of thing we are up against. I would urge you to look again at our website, we are experts, we are neutral, and we absolutely have the best interests of the general public at heart. Thank you again and I do understand your caution, but for the sake of people affected by the condition I would request you take another look at our charity website. We are notable and have been featured in papers such as the Daily Mail, The Mirror, etc. and on the BBC News. I notice you don't mention the use of botulinum toxin in Bell's palsy patients, the page also does not mention having MRI to rule out other causes. We have one case study who was diagnosed with Bell's palsy and 8 years later they finally did an MRI and discovered a tumour! We also have case studies who have had Bell's three times. One of our trustees is in the video on the NHS Bell's palsy page. Some of the stories we hear are shocking, and health professionals are simply not aware to look beyond the obvious. Would really appreciate your help in including us an authority on the subject because we do have more information than Wikipedia does and we will be adding to our site continually. We should not be excluded when the Moebius Research and other Bell's palsy site are allowed, in my opinion. I do understand Wikipedia gets spammed to death though and appreciate your caution!

Thank you for looking at the Signs and Symptoms section (which I had still only partially revised). I appreciate that your revisions are "per usual", so to speak. However—and I say this with great respect for your work—I am far from sure that the current version [18] is more readable than the structured one on which I'd been working [19]. My rationale for trying out the use of footnotes was to include more detailed information that could be of more interest to professionals without necessarily troubling the general reader. I decided to try a bullet point approach in order to give some structure to the age-related presentation of symptoms without using a rigid system of subheadings. I have given quite a lot of thought to this over the past few days in the interests of general reader friendliness, but I do realize there are pros and cons with those approaches (e.g. it makes editing more troublesome, and I'm not sure about access issues for disabled users). At the same time, I'm afraid to say that I don't feel comfortable continuing what I was doing within the current extended prose format. Sorry, 81.157.7.7 ( talk) 14:45, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the talk-page rewelcome James. I'm afraid I'm not really a new recruit though... More of the same, just a changed IP, 86.161.251.139 ( talk) 12:54, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
