The page Osteosarcopenia has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.
Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Query
[edit]Hello, G.J.ThomThom,
Why are you moving the sandboxes of other editors into the main space of the project. They should be submitted to WP:AFC for review as some are not ready for main space. Our experienced reviewers are the best judge of when content meets Wikipedia standards for main space. We generally let editors handle their own User space so do not take action on other editor's work. If you have questions, please bring thm to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 06:50, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- hi Liz
- I have made a mistake and was trying to correct it. The article is the work and effort of my student who spent time and effort creating it. We assess the students work and then we move them to thr main space once our assessment process is complete. Is there anyway to get it back? 45.64.240.198 (talk) 07:39, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- to give more details
- We are from the University of Hong kong and students create articles from the medical requested atticles list. We have a dashboard and I was supposed to move the articles via this platform. Please please dont delete the work. I really hope we can get that article back and i'll make sure i go via the dashboard. Apologies 45.64.241.247 (talk) 08:28, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello, G.J.ThomThom! Welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are a course instructor leading a class project or assignment. If you're new to Wikipedia or want to learn about best practices for Wikipedia assignments and class projects, we highly recommend that you go through the our training page for instructors.
The training includes instructions for setting up a structured course page and with tools for tracking student work and encouraging peer review. I also highly recommend that you review the advice for instructors page.
If you run into problems or want some feedback on your Wikipedia assignment plans, try posting to the education noticeboard.
Here are some more pages that you might find helpful:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page (editing policy)
- Introduction to Wikipedia
- Help pages index
- Visual editor tutorial
- Wikitext tutorial (if you're choosing to edit pages using the Wikitext source code instead of the VisualEditor)
- Wikitext cheatsheet
While editing:
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Be bold, but do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- Provide reliable sources to the content you add. If you are adding biomedical information, please follow this guideline.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay with us as a member of the community - even after your teaching assignment is finished. Your time, energy, and your contributions will be highly valued and appreciated among us.

Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 18:38, 29 May 2024 (UTC)Regarding Drugs and sexual performance
[edit]Hello, G.J.ThomThom! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia! Earlier this month, you moved the page "Drugs and sexual performance" into the main space, noting that it was a requested medical article. Some have found that the information in this article and/or the purpose of the article replicate the information/purpose of the article "Sex and drugs". As such, there is a discussion about whether the two articles should be merged. We would greatly appreciate your input! Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 00:22, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hello! Thank you for reaching out. I am the coordinator of the courses that implement wiki assignments on medical topics, with around 4 instructors guiding the writing for these topics. The students are paired up per topic and article.
- Re the merge: If the content from the student draft significantly enhances or updates the existing article with accurate, well-sourced information, then merging would be beneficial. We are unsure whether to advise students to proceed with drafting articles on the request list that appear to already have articles but exist under different or other names. Sometimes this is also not immediately clear. Do you recommend that we tell them to avoid this in the future? We always assume that the topic is requested on the list for a reason.

OhHaiMark (talk) 15:25, 16 September 2024 (UTC)List of somewhat notable diseases.

I want to emphasize that it would probably be better to stick with stubs but if you do have some particularly driven students who just really want to create an article this may be a decent starting point. If you have any questions let me know. You can also ask questions on my talk page or WP:MED talkpage at any time. To avoid people wasting time, it may be smart for you to ask someone (I'm happy to take on this responsability but just note I don't have any more authority on this topic) or WP:MED about article ideas before commiting tons of time and effort into something that already exists or isn't notable. Best of luck! IntentionallyDense (talk) 03:14, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
