Yes that should work on my end--Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:04, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Changed now to Friday 31st August, 2012 (I was unable to book everything I needed on the Tuesday). I'm in the process of completing the room and equipment booking forms. Sharkli (talk - contribs) 17:22, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Literature review

I'm prepared to organise something on finding and critically appraising the evidence, falling into the following categories:

If you don't know what you're looking for, how do you know when you've found it?

how to ask the right clinical question and formulate your search strategy (PICO etc)

Where's the Evidence?

literature searching tips & tricks

Does it do what it says on the tin?

critical appraisal of RCTs and systematic reviews

Great can you make it specific to WP:MEDRS? And research techniques that fit these guidelines? --Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 18:35, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That shouldn't be a problem - and Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Resources of course. Sharkli (talk - contribs) 11:14, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes definitely will discuss.--Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 04:41, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Open Access and Wikipedia

It would be good to have a session on open access publishing and Wikipedia as per http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Journal_(A_peer-review_journal_to_allow/encourage_academics_to_write_Wikipedia_articles) Sharkli (talk - contribs) 23:30, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
