Orphaned non-free image File:After pterygium surgery.jpg

[edit]
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:After pterygium surgery.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:24, 8 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

About your images

[edit]

Hello there! Thanks for getting to me and sorry for the delay. Your images were deleted, 'cause you used the fair use license for your images. An image with fair use rationale must be used in an article and not to be left orphan. Such images, while orphan, are deleted. Since you said those were your images, please re-upload them in Commons (our sister project), but this time with a different license. I suggest you use "Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 4.0 license" (the default license). Once you upload, you can use the image in English Wikipedia and in any of our sister projects. Hope that helps. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 16:39, 7 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Lawrence Hirst. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
  • instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Deli nk (talk) 12:25, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia from the Medicine Wikiproject!

[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia and Wikiproject Medicine


Welcome to Wikipedia from Wikiproject Medicine (also known as WPMED).

We're a group of editors who strive to improve the quality of medical articles here on Wikipedia. One of our members has noticed that you are interested in editing medical articles; it's great to have a new interested editor on board. In your wiki-voyages, a few things that may be relevant to editing Wikipedia articles are:

  • Thanks for coming aboard! We always appreciate a new editor. Feel free to leave us a message at any time on our talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. Please leave a message on the WPMED talk page if you have any problems, suggestions, would like review of an article, need suggestions for articles to edit, or would like some collaboration when editing!
  • Sourcing of medical and health-related content on Wikipedia is guided by our medical sourcing guidelines, commonly referred to as MEDRS. These guidelines typically requires recent secondary sources to support information; its application is further explained here. Primary sources (case studies, case reports, research studies) are rarely used, especially if the primary sources are produced by the organisation or individual who is promoting a claim.
  • Wikipedia is a kingdom full of a wide variety of editors with different interests, skills, and knowledge. We all manage to get along through a lot of discussion that happens under the scenes and through the bold, edit, discuss editing cycle. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss it on an article's talk page or post a message on the WPMED talk page.

Feel free to drop a note on my talk page if you have any problems. I wish you all the best on your wiki voyages! Carl Fredrik 💌 📧 11:35, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

Your participation is welcome!

From one editor to another. Thank you for your contributions to the Pterygium (conjunctiva) article. I hope that you will be able to stay involved in editing after the editing questions are resolved. If you would like, I could insert the references that were suggested by Doc James that are authored by others. Your information seems pretty important and I believe health consumers and clinicians should have the most reliable information. Best Regards,
