Subproject: Gray's Anatomy

[edit]
Images added  Done
Image from Gray's Anatomy.

Most of Gray's anatomy has been added to the commons and to Wikipedia - work is mostly left in making sure everything is copied. If you would like to take on making a list of the works left that is the main priority of this project.

Gray's Anatomy is an incredible public domain resource for both text and images. Help gather together this treasure trove of information and integrate it into Wikipedia!

Goals

[edit]
  1. Gather images from Gray's Anatomy and standardize the files, their descriptions, and their licensing.
  2. Gather text from Gray's Anatomy and integrate it into Wikipedia articles, while bringing the language up to date.

Images

[edit]

Here's how to upload it:

  1. Find the image at http://www.bartleby.com/107/illus310.html
  2. Copy caption from beneath image. In this case, it is "Articulation of the mandible. Medial aspect."
  3. Convert to PNG format.
  4. Upload image to http://commons.wikimedia.org as Gray310.png
  5. Image description for images: {{Gray's Anatomy plate| Articulation of the mandible. Medial aspect.}}
  6. Add a few appropriate category labels and/or add the image to an appropriate gallery.

And on to the next one!

Text

[edit]

Text needs to be brought up-to-date into modern language.

Lists

[edit]

Wikipedia:WikiProject Anatomy/List of subjects in Gray's Anatomy holds a list of lists that needs major link repair before they can be moved into article space. Each article, created in 2006, is a word-for-word copy of the index of the 1918 version of Gray's Anatomy.

The articles are in terrible need of maintenance. For instance, at List of subjects in Gray's Anatomy (E), we see:

When the pages were created, each entry was simply wikilinked as is. For instance, the last entry should link to Superficial epigastric artery, but that wasn't done - it's just a link to the disambiguation page superficial. And of course a wikilink to peculiarities of makes no sense at all.

In their current form, these articles are basically worthless. The project needs someone to go through the wikilinks in these lists and give them meaningful targets.

2014, fourth quarter

[edit]
 Done Nervous system


Heart

[edit]
 Done Majority of articles looked at, and Heart significantly improved
  • Coordinator collaborative effort involving several editors, including CFCF, Iztwoz and others
  • Goal: improve the quality of heart and related articles
  • Intended duration: less than three months (to January 2015)
    • Simplify Heart and transfer relevant content to sub-articles
    • Ensure subarticles are readable and not excessively technical
    • Improving the standards of citation where possible
    • Improve the readability and organisation of the developmentally-related articles:

Article list:

Physiology articles:

 Done a number of articles expanded with content from Heart --Tom (LT) (talk) 05:56, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Development articles: (to be added)

Cranial Nerves

[edit]
 Partly done Cranial nerves improved and articles adapted to match MEDMOS

Borders, surfaces, impressions, etc.

[edit]
 Done
  • Coordinator --LT910001 (talk) 03:41, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Goal: reconcile and/or merge the numerous articles relating to impressions and borders with the parent articles
  • Intended duration: less than three months (before April 2014)
  • Details:
    •  Done There are 19 articles on surfaces ([1]),
    •  Done 6 on impressions ([2]),
    •  Done 11 on margins ([3]) and
    • 5 on borders ([4]) under our scope. There is no reason that these need to be separate articles, and these could be merrily integrated into 'relations' or comparative sections in the parent articles.

2014, third quarter

Sideboxes

[edit]
 Not done Sideboxes

Reconciliation

[edit]
 Done Reconciliation
  • Coordinator --LT910001 (talk) 22:41, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Goal: Add relevant hatnotes and reduce duplication of content between articles
    • There are several sets of articles that have developed but, unaware of other related articles, contain significant duplications and lack appropriate hatnotes, impacting on readability and accuracy of information
  • Intended duration: Less than three months (before July 2014)
  • Details: I will be focusing on:

2014, second quarter

Anatomical terminology of muscle and bone

[edit]
 Partly done Improved markedly

Anatomy series

[edit]
Anatomy series  Partly done

There are some topics in anatomy with either a very sequential structure or very closely linked. Many of these topics do not relate to fixed anatomical structures (such as bones or nerves) but concepts (such as epithelium or terminology). It would be very useful to readers if these topics were presented in an easy-to-access, immediate fashion.

Diaphragm

[edit]
Anatomy series  Not done
  • Coordinator --LT910001 (talk) 09:59, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Goal: improve the articles related to the Diaphragm
  • Intended duration: Less than three months (before July 2014)
  • Details: I will be focusing on:
    • Do a full assessment of what articles relate to the Diaphragm, including: tendons, openings, parts of diaphragm, and radiological signs
    • Consider and propose if necessary ways of better representing this content
    • Move all related articles to the WP:MEDMOS#Anatomy style

Merges

[edit]
Merges  Done
  • Coordinator --LT910001 (talk) 09:59, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Goal: continue to address proposed mergers (of which there are now quite a few)
  • Intended duration: Less than one month (before May 2014)
  • Details: I will be focusing on:
    •  Done Getting the merge count (currently here: [5]) down to less than 100 items.
    •  Done Remove merge tags if no consensus has been reached, contribute to mergers proposed by others, and complete mergers where consensus exists.

Organise WP:ANATOMY

[edit]
Organise WP:ANATOMY  Done
  • Coordinator --LT910001 (talk) 01:20, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Goal: (1) document all lists of features; (2) standardise lists of features (3) reconcile and/or merge duplicate lists
  • Intended duration: less than three months (before April 2014)
  • Details:

We currently have the following articles to help organise us:

Lists of features:

Census

[edit]
Census  Done

Many of the top 500 anatomy pages have not been restructured in many years, and are consequently quite messy and randomly-organised.

Assessment

[edit]
Article assessment  Done

There are only a few articles that have been not assessed remaining
