References

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN.

While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "cite" click on it
Then click on "templates",
Choose the most appropriate template and fill in the details beside a magnifying glass followed by clicking said button,
If the article is available in Pubmed Central, you have to add the pmc parameter manually -- click on "show additional fields" in the template and you will see the "pmc" field. Please add just the number and don't include "PMC".

We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:37, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Knol is not really a reliable source. --Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:37, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is better to use review articles on the subject matter at hand. Knol has not been peer reviewed thus I am hesitant about its use. Many others at WP:MED would share these concerns. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 10:23, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Afshar

Stop adding your own work to the Afshar experiment. You have a massive conflict of interest (and Knol is not reliable). --cheers, Michael C. Price ^talk 07:02, 29 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
