Speedy deletion of Osteosarcopenia

edit
 

The page Osteosarcopenia has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Query

edit

Hello, G.J.ThomThom,

Why are you moving the sandboxes of other editors into the main space of the project. They should be submitted to WP:AFC for review as some are not ready for main space. Our experienced reviewers are the best judge of when content meets Wikipedia standards for main space. We generally let editors handle their own User space so do not take action on other editor's work. If you have questions, please bring thm to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 06:50, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

hi Liz
I have made a mistake and was trying to correct it. The article is the work and effort of my student who spent time and effort creating it. We assess the students work and then we move them to thr main space once our assessment process is complete. Is there anyway to get it back? 45.64.240.198 (talk) 07:39, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
to give more details
We are from the University of Hong kong and students create articles from the medical requested atticles list. We have a dashboard and I was supposed to move the articles via this platform. Please please dont delete the work. I really hope we can get that article back and i'll make sure i go via the dashboard. Apologies 45.64.241.247 (talk) 08:28, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Regarding Drugs and sexual performance

edit

Hello, G.J.ThomThom! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia! Earlier this month, you moved the page "Drugs and sexual performance" into the main space, noting that it was a requested medical article. Some have found that the information in this article and/or the purpose of the article replicate the information/purpose of the article "Sex and drugs". As such, there is a discussion about whether the two articles should be merged. We would greatly appreciate your input! Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 00:22, 30 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello! Thank you for reaching out. I am the coordinator of the courses that implement wiki assignments on medical topics, with around 4 instructors guiding the writing for these topics. The students are paired up per topic and article.
Re the merge: If the content from the student draft significantly enhances or updates the existing article with accurate, well-sourced information, then merging would be beneficial. We are unsure whether to advise students to proceed with drafting articles on the request list that appear to already have articles but exist under different or other names. Sometimes this is also not immediately clear. Do you recommend that we tell them to avoid this in the future? We always assume that the topic is requested on the list for a reason.

List of somewhat notable diseases.

edit

Here is the list of articles from Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Missing diseases which I could find sources on. Note that these may not all be notable but I was able to find some sources. I am more than happy to continue my list but for now I only have A-C done. Possible article means I was unsure and article means I was pretty sure it could be an article. If there is a second name in brackets that usually means that the name in brackets is the more commonly used term.

I want to emphasize that it would probably be better to stick with stubs but if you do have some particularly driven students who just really want to create an article this may be a decent starting point. If you have any questions let me know. You can also ask questions on my talk page or WP:MED talkpage at any time. To avoid people wasting time, it may be smart for you to ask someone (I'm happy to take on this responsability but just note I don't have any more authority on this topic) or WP:MED about article ideas before commiting tons of time and effort into something that already exists or isn't notable.
