Re: Should clinicians edit Wikipedia to engage a wider world web?
Whether you like it or not Wikipedia is what your patients, students and colleagues are reading. The quality of its content is sporadic. But you are able to do something about it. We at WikiProject Medicine welcome you to join us and help improve the quality of the health care content people are reading. Currently we have about 24,000 articles in English, which are viewed more than 200 million times a month. Wikipedia is currently in 284 languages and we are actively working to improve the content, not only in English but also in all the other languages of the world. Come say hello here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:MED
