hi, a video showing how immune cells eat parasites [1] attracted quite some sites to cite an article about medical visualization [2]. when looking at it i noticed: * that it is published in a cc-2.5 licensed journal * that there is a possibility to enter links from facebook, stumble upon, ... * that there is no link to do make a reference in wiki*
would it make sense that a wikimedia page allows referencing such an article? the functions of such a page could be: * enter it in a (not yet existing) references library (bibtex or whatever) * add it to a portal talk page selected by the user (like medicine) * add it to project selected by the user (like wpedia, wversity, ...) imo the advantages would be that on one hand quality may rise through better citations, on the other hand having a citation library where researchers in future want to be and need to be. kr, rupert. refs: [1] (http://www.plospathogens.org/article/fetchFirstRepresentation.action?uri=info:doi/10.1371/journal.ppat.1000222.s013) [2] http://www.plospathogens.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.ppat.1000222#ppat.1000222-Leon1 _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
