Public outreach/Academy/Pre-Academy communications with scientists
< Public outreach | Academy
Preferred situtation[edit]
Ideally, NIH scientists will, prior to the Academy:
- Register as a Wikipedia editor (get a username) (see separate page)
- Visit the NIH Academy welcome page
- Receive some information and suggestions about editing, for those interested in doing so prior to the Academy
NIH welcome page[edit]
The welcome page for the NIH WikiProject is currently at en:User:Proteins/Draft_Welcome. At issue are:
- When is the page going to be finalized, including location (Meta or en.wikipedia)?
- How will we provide the link to NIH scientists prior to the Academy?
Other information for NIH scientists, prior to the Academy[edit]
Instructional[edit]
- Links to How Wikipedia Works and Wikipedia: The Missing Manual
- Small "articles" on creating a user account, and on selecting a user name
Tools[edit]
- Help gadget (alpha)
- Edit buttons (beta)
- Pyrospirit's script (beta)
- List of redirects (beta)
- Acronym expander (beta)
Open questions[edit]
- Do we have any way of communicating, directly or indirectly, with the expected NIH participants?
- See the "NIH welcome page" section, above for two more questions (bolded).
