Invitation to the Medical Translation Project – a joint Wikimedia project started by the English language WikiProject Medicine! Thank you for being one of the top Medical editors! I want to use this opportunity to introduce you to our most ambitious project. We want to use Wikipedia to spread knowledge where it will be used. Studies have shown that Wikipedia is the most common resource of medical knowledge, and used by more people than any other source! We want high quality articles, available to everyone, regardless of language ability. It isn't right that you would need to know a major language to get hold of quality content! That is why in the recent Ebola crisis (which is still ongoing) we translated information into over 70 languages, many of them small African languages. This was important, as Wikipedia was also shown to be the biggest resource used in Africa for information on Ebola! We see tremendous potential, but also great risks as our information needs to be accurate and well-researched. We only translate articles that have been reviewed by medical doctors and experts, so that what we translate is correct. Many of our translators are professionals, but many are also volunteers, and we need more of you guys – both to translate, but also to import finished translations, and fix grammatical or other style issues that are introduced by the translation process. Our articles are not only translated into small languages, but also to larger ones, but as of 2015 this requires users to apply for an article to be translated, which can be done here (full articles, short articles) with an easy to manage google document. So regardless of your background head over to our main page for more information, or to our talk page and ask us questions. Feel free to respond in any language, we will do our best to find some way to communicate. No task is too small, and we need everyone to help out!
Thank you for helping medical information on Wikipedia grow! -- CFCF 🍌 (email) 15:37, 28 January 2015 (UTC) |

Hi Holder,
Thanks for protecting the above page. I would have done it long time ago. Wikicology (ọ̀rọ̀) 07:55, 3 Oṣù Kejìlá 2016 (UTC)
Dear Holder,
Merry Xmas and thanks for all your contributions to Yoruba Wikipedia in the past few year. I like to bring the above user to your attention. This teen has added over 3000 nonsensical articles translated by machine here. The articles are nothing but mess. I have left a note on their talk page. Is there a way we could get his contributions nuked perhaps by a bot or something? Wikicology (ọ̀rọ̀) 10:42, 28 Oṣù Kejìlá 2016 (UTC)
- Wikicology, I am so sorry for creating those articles and I hope you don't block me here and I don't create any articles furthermore and I am sure I don't make any such articles and hope you will do good to wikipedia by deleting my articles. Thankyou --Shriheeran (ọ̀rọ̀) 10:49, 28 Oṣù Kejìlá 2016 (UTC)
- Wikicology, I've deleted all articles by mass deletion.
- Shriheeran: if you promise that you don't create more of such articles there is no need for a block. Best regards. --Holder (ọ̀rọ̀) 14:02, 28 Oṣù Kejìlá 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you Holder. I saw this request and I recommended a block there. I hope that is not a bit too harsh? Wikicology (ọ̀rọ̀) 14:13, 28 Oṣù Kejìlá 2016 (UTC)
- Of course, I am promissing that I never create any article on this wiki. Thank you and Do not block me.--Shriheeran (ọ̀rọ̀) 14:17, 28 Oṣù Kejìlá 2016 (UTC)
