The Stethoscope: A Wiki Project Med Foundation Review (Issue 1)[edit]
Wiki Project Med Foundation (WPMEDF) was formally incorporated in New York as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Our mission is bold like Wikipedia's: Imagine a world in which every single person is given free access to the sum of all medical knowledge." That's what we're doing.
In this newsletter:
- Designing our logos and name: How and why we made them
- Creating our Board: Who's involved
- Adding 70+ interested members: From all over the globe
- Furthering ongoing projects: Expanding in many exciting directions at once
- Proposing Wikimania presentations galore: Sign up for the ones that interest you
- Taking on on social media: Up and running (plus business cards!)
- Charting pathways for how you can help now: a great list of easy and important ways to contribute
We aim to run The Stethoscope at least once per quarter and no more than once per month. We only send to signed on WPMED and WPMEDF interested members. If you do not want to receive the newsletter, please add your name here.
It's been a pleasure so far, and we have so much more to do. Wishing you happy Spring up North and pleasant Autumn down South.
