1) You do not use an anonymous username. Students are an exception as it may be in your best interest to do so (email me). If you are an adult, then you can be accountable for what you say and do. There is good reason that there are no scientific journals with anonymous editors. |

2) Follow guidelines related to civility, personal attacks, and rudeness. Most problems can be avoided if you "comment on content, not on the contributor." Please "avoid condescension" and belittling (e.g., telling people "they should know better" or saying"you're not competent"). Please "avoid personal comments about any editors" (e.g., "this is just a student" or "newbie"). Remember, "being rude on Wikipedia can fall under many definitions of cyberbullying." |

Hi Jerry! We don't currently have any ambassadors stationed at Notre Dame; I'll put up a geonotice now and see if we can't recruit a couple between now and the training session later this month.

3) You are a new user. Thank you for trying this. You are "...are both necessary for and valuable to the community. By helping newcomers, we can increase the range of knowledge, perspectives, and ideas on Wikipedia, thereby preserving its neutrality and integrity as a resource and ultimately increasing its value.

:Hi again; I just spoke with Chanitra (your regional ambassador, [[User:Etlib]]) earlier this week, and she said she's not had any applicants yet from South Bend, but she'll keep an eye open.

Hi- I see that you are also jumping in to the APS initiative this semester. I'm doing likewise with my Industrial Psych students at Ball State. I'm hopeful it will come together well, but I hope I can recruit some good wikipedia ambassadors to assist. I'll be interested to learn how it goes for you and your students.

Actually, no, I'm never sarcastic when it comes to Pitch Perfect.

It's actually scary how much we like it, and one of our friends is planning an intervention haha. You should watch it and let Lisa and I know what you think!

I [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|patrolled]] your students' pages. I went through the enormously-backlogged list of newly-created pages and confirmed that the pages were [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/patrolled pages|okay]]: not spam, not an attack page, not a copyright violation, not any of the other reasons for which I would delete someone's page without asking. Then I clicked "patrolled" to remove them from the list of "pages that have not yet been patrolled", and moved on to the next entry. That's all.

It looks like you're using Wikipedia assignments in one of your classes. In case you weren't already aware of it, [https://dashboard.wikiedu.org/ Wikiedu] has some great training modules for college-level Wikipedia assignments. It also has a Blackboard-like interface for keeping track of student assignments on Wikipedia.

== Training your students == |
|||
Your students seem to be unaware of the conventions for editing about health and medicine in Wikipedia, and this is a) wasting their time and b) wasting the time of volunteers. |
|||
There is training for students [https://dashboard.wikiedu.org/training/students/editing-medical-topics here]. |
|||
Really key things are: |
|||
* We almost exclusively source such content from high quality secondary sources (defined in [[WP:MEDDEF]]); we don't write mini-reviews based on research papers. Please see also [[WP:EXPERT]], which you might find useful. |
|||
* We use the pubmed ID in citations as it is useful for many reasons. |
|||
* Ways to generate well-formatted citations very quickly are described in [[WP:MEDHOW]] |
|||
* We never use the word "patient" (see [[WP:MEDMOS]] |
|||
* We have a standard way that sectioning is done, also described in MEDMOS. |
|||
For what it's worth I suggest you ask your students to pause and do the training and then reconsider what they have been doing. Thanks. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 15:55, 26 April 2018 (UTC) |

:Thank you for your message. Given that Wikipedia is supposed to be a community of people working together to advance knowledge, and that no single person is in charge of Wikipedia....please allow me the liberty to retype your message in a way that would allow for a productive and collegial interaction: |
|||
:"Thank you and your students so much for their work on a variety of Wikipedia pages. I can tell that they put significant effort into updating the pages to reflect the most rigorous and up-to-date clinical science. I was particularly impressed that EVERY SINGLE citation in EVERY SINGLE article came from a high quality peer reviewed secondary source. Also, I appreciate that pages were edited to remove other sources (e.g., webpages and advertisements) and factually incorrect information. The content that was added is accurate and certainly not worthless. The additions to Intuitive Eating and Subcortical ischemic depression were very well done. However, there was some variation in the quality of contributions, and I think there are a few things you can continue to work on. For example...XXX. That said, even the contributions with problems added content that makes the article better, and it is certainly worthwhile to remove incorrect information. I know that sometimes there are implicit biases against student contributors, so I just want to reiterate that we want as many people as possible to be a part of our community and mission to disseminate accurate scientific research. Please let me know if I can further help you and your students better prepare upcoming articles. Happy to answer any questions that I can. I understand that Wikipedia can be an intimidating place and insulting people does little good to help provide quality Wikipedia contributions." |
|||
:Sincerely, [[User:Prof Haeffel|Prof Haeffel]] ([[User talk:Prof Haeffel|talk]]) |
|||
::Our mission is to provide the public with articles with articles that summarize accepted knowledge. Primary sources or predatory journals are not where we find "accepted knowledge" and as I am sure you are aware, much research is not replicable or ignored by the field. Presenting the public with content based on primary or other unreliable sources is '''not''' an improvement; in the field of health and medicine it is sloppy at best and actually harmful at worst. |
|||
::More broadly responding -- everybody here is a volunteer. You and your students do not deserve any special "attaboy" for doing what we all do. That sense of entitlement is simply vulgar. |
|||
::You do not seem to understand what a "secondary source" is in Wikipedia, nor what all the criteria are, for something to be OK per [[WP:MEDRS]]. Please do actually read [[WP:MEDRS]] and [[WP:MEDDEF]] in particular. |
|||

|||
::: Yes, I see this: "Scientific journals are the best place to find both primary source articles about experiments, including medical studies, and secondary sources. Every rigorous scientific journal is peer reviewed. Be careful of material published in journals lacking peer review or which reports material mainly in other fields. (See: Martin Rimm.) Be careful of material published in disreputable journals or disreputable fields. (See: Sokal affair.)". No need for "atta boy" and also no need for insults. Please provide an example of a source that does not meet the above criteria. That would help us understand your problems with the citations.[[User:Prof Haeffel|Prof Haeffel]] ([[User talk:Prof Haeffel|talk]]) 17:21, 26 April 2018 (UTC) |
|||
::::I have your page watchlisted and I will see your replies. There is no need to have this discussion in two places. |
|||
::::You are missing the thrust of MEDRS, which is that we use secondary sources as much as possible: |
|||
::::* {{tq|A secondary source in medicine summarizes one or more primary or secondary sources, usually to provide an overview of current understanding of the topic, to make recommendations, or to combine results of several studies. Examples include literature reviews or systematic reviews found in medical journals, specialist academic or professional books, and medical guidelines or position statements published by major health organizations.}} |
|||
::::* In contrast {{tq|A primary source in medicine is one in which the authors directly participated in the research or documented their personal experiences. They examined the patients, injected the rats, filled the test tubes, or at least supervised those who did. Many, but not all, papers published in medical journals are primary sources for facts about the research and discoveries made.}} |
|||
:::: MEDRS goes into a lot of detail about what we mean by that, and goes some into why we do that. The main thing you should understand is that MEDRS has broad and deep consensus in the editing community. Going against it, will be beating your head against the wall. Really just a big waste of time. Lots of experts who come to WP find this frustrating or annoying. They want to write reviews ''themselves'' like they do in their professional work. WP doesn't work that way, and this is ''by design''. It is what makes WP ''possible''. |
|||
::::You might find the essay [[WP:EXPERT]] helpful, broadly. |

::::See [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Cyclothymia&type=revision&diff=838351382&oldid=836928564 this diff], which added citations to PMID 23544035 and the paper by Hantouche, each of which were published in Neuropsychiatry (London), which is published by [[OMICS]], the poster child for predatory publishers. |
|||
::::[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Cyclothymia&diff=next&oldid=838354037 This diff] added citations to primary sources PMID 24091304 and PMID 18077000. |
|||
::::In general, if that student been trained to format citations as described in MEDHOW, it would have saved me time reviewing their work (and would have made the work '''much''' more useful for ''anybody'' coming after them, since links to pmid and doi allow people to quickly to find the source if they want to learn more or verify the content.) It takes only a few seconds to use the tool described in MEDHOW -- it is faster than doing them by hand. Everybody wins. |
|||
::::[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Cyclothymia&diff=next&oldid=838351566 this diff] added content that I am worried is copied from DSM-V (I still need to check) APA enforces its copyright on DSM ''fiercely''. |

::::They also used words like "patient", and editorializing comments throughout, that needed to be cleaned up. Those are typical new editor mistakes. Not horrible but something that training would help them get right the first time, saving both them and everybody time. |

If you look at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Euthymia_(medicine)&action=history history] you will see where I went through and fixed things, removing primary sources etc. |

|||
::::I just want to add that the education program ''can'' be a great thing. We are always hopeful that students get engaged with the mission of Wikipedia and start to volunteer regularly. What happens too often, however, is that students are not trained well enough in what we do here, how we do it, and why we do it that way, and the whole thing ends up being a negative experience for the students and for experienced editors. It gets ''really'' ugly when students focus on class requirements and getting their grade - this turns into an overt conflict of interest situation, where their external interests (the class) obliterate their responsibilities as individual Wikipedia editors. |
|||
::::The better oriented you, as their instructor, are to those three things (the mission, how we realize it, and why we do things as we do them), the more your students will be, and there is a better chance that everybody can have a better experience, and the mission (which is what matters) can be advanced efficiently and happily. |

Please leave comments with your signature. You are most likely to receive a speedy response if:
1) You do not use an anonymous username. Students are an exception as it may be in your best interest to do so (email me). If you are an adult, then you can be accountable for what you say and do. There is good reason that there are no scientific journals with anonymous editors.
2) Follow guidelines related to civility, personal attacks, and rudeness. Most problems can be avoided if you "comment on content, not on the contributor." Please "avoid condescension" and belittling (e.g., telling people "they should know better" or saying"you're not competent"). Please "avoid personal comments about any editors" (e.g., "this is just a student" or "newbie"). Remember, "being rude on Wikipedia can fall under many definitions of cyberbullying."
3) You are a new user. Thank you for trying this. You are "...are both necessary for and valuable to the community. By helping newcomers, we can increase the range of knowledge, perspectives, and ideas on Wikipedia, thereby preserving its neutrality and integrity as a resource and ultimately increasing its value. In fact, it has been found that newcomers are responsible for adding the majority of lasting content to Wikipedia (i.e., substantive edits)."
If you do not abide by the rules, I will delete your post on my talk page. Also, I understand the need to be a bit curious and read the other ongoing conversations. If you read something that interests you and want to join the conversation, then please...keep it to yourself until asked to join :)
Thank you, Prof Haeffel (talk) 04:04, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
