I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles.

Feedback on contribution to Ethics of technology

edit

Hi , I just wanted to let you know that I undid your contribution ([1]) to the page Ethics of technology. You introduced information about the destruction of Joseph Marie Jacquard's loom as an example of cybercrime. The loom and its destruction did not involve computers at all. Also, the information you added did not have any citations to support it. All content additions on Wikipedia require citations for verifiability. Thanks, Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:35, 2 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Security in the Medical Field

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Security in the Medical Field, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

  • I took a look at the page. I'm concerned that this is written as more of an essay on the topic as opposed to an article about security in the medical field. I've moved it to your userspace at User:Nlombardo97/Security in the medical industry so you can work on it. Here are some of my notes and recommendations:
  1. This needs to be set up like the article on patient safety (ie, in sections)- you also want to make sure that this isn't redundant to that page. There's definitely merit in having a page that generally talks about security in the healthcare industry, but it needs to be approached carefully.
  2. This needs to be written more like a neutral, encyclopedic article. At present it's more like an essay where you reflect on the issues in the industry as opposed to summarizing existing sourcing.
  3. This needs more sourcing. Since this deals with the health industry you should review this module on editing health and psychology topics. While not everything in the article will fall under the guidelines for reliable sources and health topics, it's still something I'd like you to review.
I'm going to try and do a bit of tweaking to help better show what I mean by the above notes. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:16, 11 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
