Jake,

Yes, its a rather straightforward parse based on the citation format which Jeremy described. Doc James and I already have this coded up for a soon to be published [[WP:MED]] readership/editorship paper.

Searching for PMID's in the entirety of the Wikipedia article base would be a bit time consuming -- but if one needs to pull down only articles in WikiProject Medicine, for example, I am also able to help on that front.

Perhaps we'll take this offline, but if anyone else is interested in the dirty details, feel free to contact one of us off-list. -AW

Hi folks,

Relaying a question from a Stanford medical researcher:

"Do you know if it is possible to extract PubMed ID (PMID) or PMCIDs
from Wiki references?  Furthermore, could you dump those IDs out into a
list for analysis?"

Best,
Jake Orlowitz (Ocaasi)
