Welcome[edit]

Hello, nice article on the Hall Technique. It is good to link other articles to a new article otherwise it will get a lot less visitors. If you have any Qs, feel free to ask me on my talk page or on WT:DENT. Kind regards, Lesion (talk) 15:05, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hall Technique[edit]

Hello, Npt1. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Hall Technique, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. GermanJoe (talk) 11:23, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia and Wikiproject Medicine

Welcome to Wikipedia. We have compiled a list of guidance for students and new editors:

Use high quality sources for medical content. This is described at WP:MEDRS. High quality sources include review articles (note this is not the same as peer reviewed), position statements from national and internationally recognized bodies (think CDC, WHO, NICE, FDA, etc), and major medical textbooks. Lower quality sources may be removed.
References go after not before punctuation (see WP:MOS)
We use very few capital letters and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
Do not use the url from the inside net of your university library. The rest of the world cannot see it.
If you use textbooks we need page numbers.
Please format your references as explained at WP:MEDHOW or like the ones already in the article. This is simple once you get the PMID / ISBN.
Every sentence can be referenced. We reference more densely than other sources.
Never "copy and paste" from sources. We run copy and paste detection software on new edits.
Section order typically follows the instructions here at WP:MEDMOS
Please talk to us. Wikipedia works by collaboration and this takes place on the talk pages of both articles and user.

Again welcome and thank you for joining us.

P.S. Please share this with your fellow learners and instructors.

WikiProject Dentistry Article Initiative 2023[edit]

Hi there! I am messaging you because you are listed as a member of the WikiProject Dentistry here. The project is starting an initiative to increase the number of Wikipedia articles relating to dentistry. If you'd like to help, please let me know (either on my page or here). We'd like each participant who'd like to contribute to start an article that is well-written and well-referenced, and I'm here to help.

Looking forward to hearing back from you soon! DRosenbach ^{(Talk | Contribs)} 18:36, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
