Inspiration/Sources for Edits
The Wellcome has a number of resources that might help provide information or inspiration for Wiki-pages or edits. Many items have been digitised and can be accessed online anywhere. Other items can be accessed at the Library by signing up for a free library card: you can register online and order items in advance so they're waiting for you on your arrival.
Digitised Mental Healthcare Materials
The historical records of a number of UK psychiatric institutions and personnel are in the process of being digitised and can be found here. For each set of archive files, there are descriptions of the place/person they're about, which could form the basis of some new pages or improvements to pages (all content on the website is licenced under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence unless otherwise stated).
Mental Health & Psychiatry Things at the Library
A thematic search of Wellcome library materials in the Alpha Catalogue for mental health and psychiatry turn up lots of people, linked topics or subtopics, and books (some digitised, some not). Take a look!
Medical Officer of Health Reports
The Wellcome have digitised thousands of Medical Officer of Health Reports for London from 1848-1972. These reports contain both statistical information (which might be of interest to Wikidata users) and narrative accounts of many varied things that affected the health of Londoners. There are many results concerning psychiatric topics. Click View Tables Only to filter the results to show only show data (which can be exported).
Women Medics
Emma Milliken has compiled an index to the obituaries of Medical Women's Federation members that are contained in issues of its Quarterly or Journal, (which can be found on the catalogue record page). Lots of these women doctors have not yet got Wikipedia pages, though likely several of them do fit notability criteria. The Wellcome Library's holdings of these issues could be really useful to anyone interested in adding some important women to Wikipedia.
Please use {{INDEX}} only within the User and User talk: namespaces, as those are the only two in which it has an effect.
