Students
[edit]Hi Camille. Your students don't seem to have done the training for students editing about health and I am not sure that you have done it either. Here you praised this annotated bibliography but most of the sources there are primary sources which we don't use for content about health. See the WP:MEDDEF part of WP:MEDRS, and that whole guideline, which is very important. If students start with unusable sources it is a waste of their time, and a waste of volunteers' time too. Pinging Ian, in case he can help you... Jytdog (talk) 01:33, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
- It looks like the students have taken the training. But it might be helpful if you could remind them of this - some of them appear to have done the training several months ago, and it's easy to forget all about it and fall back into familiar habits of sourcing.
