Happy February everyone. I hope the new year is starting to look better than the last one did. As always, if you have any ideas to improve the newsletter, please post them at the talkpage. Otherwise, here is what's happening around the project:

News from around the site
- Another discussion has closed, with consensus supporting continued use of the phrase "committed suicide" in articles.
- The Medicine Collaboration of the Month for February is Cirrhosis. Head to Talk:Cirrhosis to coordinate our efforts. You can nominate future collaborations at WP:MCOTM.
- This month's target maintenance backlog is "articles that need more wikilinks". Just 65 medicine pages have {{Underlinked}} on them, so hopefully we can clean them all up this month.
- Flyer22 Frozen, longtime and prolific editor on medicine and television/film topics, has died. You can read a brief reflection on her Wikipedia work here, and leave condolences at her talk page.
Discussions of interest
- Continued discussion on the role of subject-specific notability guidelines at Wikipedia talk:Notability.
- An ongoing effort to trim talk page banners has brought us a discussion regarding whether {{English variant notice}}s should be converted to editnotices.
- An ongoing discussion at WT:MED considers spinning out parts of the infobox for medicines/drugs into other templates.

Precious
injections of accessibility
Thank you for quality articles around medicine such as injector pen, intramuscular injection and epidural administration, for "I do my best now to fix problems when I see them and can" for accessibility, especially WP:DTT, for appreciation, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!
You are recipient no. 2560 of Precious, a prize of QAI. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:51, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
- I saw this this morning before work Gerda, and in lieu of me spending days thinking of words to say, I'll simply say that I'm amazed that you and others are taking the time to recognize people, and I'm honored to be recognized in this way. I was going to say the cliché "don't deserve it" etc... but I don't think that's in the spirit of this award from what I've read on it, and as such, I will leave it at a sincere thanks for your recognition of my work on articles and attempting to encourage accessibility in articles and talk pages. My last GA promotion was unfortunately 3-ish months ago... in the meantime I've been putting in such long hours at work that when I get home (or when I have the rare days off completely) I'm too exhausted to dedicate time to doing the immense amount of research I do before embarking on actually writing the content in the articles. I suspect I will be able to, with some better time management, and hopefully less overtime IRL, be able to bring another injection article to GA within the next couple months. Regardless, I'm rambling now, but thank you sincerely for the recognition :) -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 04:27, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- That looks wonderful, will read after church no time now. - Miss Yoninah (see my talk), and anything positive is a treat. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:34, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

The Editor's Barnstar | |
| I noticed some of your editing, and thought it exceptional. While this particular barnstar may lend itself more toward article editing, I also appreciate various posts you've made in multiple discussions as well. Thank you for your efforts here. — Ched (talk) 07:03, 29 March 2021 (UTC) |

Thank you for what you said for RexxS --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:00, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
Hello!
Your obviously an experienced editor. Just a friendly reminder to assume good faith. Several of the sources mentioned are on Wikipedia's list of reliable sources. One local source was an Associated Press wire story. I supposed reputability is always subjective, based on one's perspective, and part of a discussion. But making accusations about about whether someone has a read or not read a source really isn't necessary to support your argument. :) Here's a cold one on me. Minnemeeples (talk) 19:40, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
- Minnemeeples, apologies for the "reading" related comment - I am in the midst of still being shocked over how many procedure violations arbcom let happen in their case against RexxS (at least 3 arbitrators voted based on something never presented in evidence or a finding - and were never questioned about it) along with one arbitrator who feels they can "turn off and on" their "arbitrator-ness" during a case where it's important for them to appear impartial. I let that slip out and I shouldn't have - I don't think you didn't "read the articles" at all or anything - I just think that maybe you may have put a little too much emphasis on their use of the word "insurrection" and didn't consider that multiple of them also use the word "riot". Regardless, I won't engage further on that topic for today - it's clear that the heat from the absolute insanity of the arbitration debate on WP:VPP is getting to me. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 19:44, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 | Minnemeeples (talk) has given you a wiki free beer of your choice to wiki drink. This user advises you to not get too wiki-drunk or you could get a wiki-hangover. See Wikipedia:Free beer for more info or give some one a free wiki beer with {{subst:freebeer}} |
- Take care, friend. Peace to you. Minnemeeples (talk) 19:46, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
Re: "Ex-" in SD
I had considered using former, but I believe the use of "ex-" is reasonable because according to Wiktionary, it has the same meaning as former, and is not necessarily a negative. Merriam-Webster's page on Ex also states that ex- means "one that formerly held a specified position or place." In that sense, whatever negative meaning it imparts is merely assumed by others, not enforced or introduced by us. That is why I think it's reasonable to use it. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks! Kiteinthewind Leave a message! 19:54, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

- As part of the Talk pages project, the reply and new discussion tools have been released as beta features. You can enable them at Special:Preferences.
- This month's maintenance backlog is articles marked as too technical. Please help clarify these pages for non-specialists.
- Longtime medicine editor, administrator, and tech-wiz RexxS has retired – hopefully temporarily – following an arbitration case. Among other things, RexxS has long advocated improving Wikipedia's accessibility for readers with disabilities. You can help in that regard by reminding yourself of the contents of Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility and learning to write alt text for images.

Please don't leave threatening messages on my user page
I have taken the issue to POV noticeboard. No more threats, insults etc. please. Thank you. Huasteca (talk) 21:29, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
Regarding your comment
Very strange for you to come onto my page randomly because I complained to another user about disrespectful comments being made towards me. Have you considered that Alexbrn had just accused me of stalking prior to my comment about the disrespect, or that he had falsely accused me of being a meat puppet, or that he had told me to piss off? Its important to avoid selective enforcement. Thank you. Gsonnenf (talk) 19:08, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
- Gsonnenf, he accused you of stalking because you were stalking him. Commenting on past punishments/etc is not acceptable behavior on Wikipedia. You were accused of being a meat puppet because it is very strange that you keep randomly showing up to edit in controversial areas without editing in between, and you seem to have a very good understanding of Wikipedia policies, that would not be expected of a "new" editor. You're free to report Alexbrn to administrators if you feel that "piss off" is a violation of policy, but note that as you already know, your edits will be scrutinized as well, and that harassment/stalking is a much more serious offense than one "piss off" comment. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 19:13, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
- It is totally clear I was NOT stalking him. It is totally clear that I am not a meat puppet. You assessment of these is completely wrong. And its totally clear that if you have a suspicion of these things that you should take them to dispute resolution and not harass people. Just as it is inappropriate for him to make false baseless accusations, it is also inappropriate for you to make the same false baseless accusations. I have nothing further to say to you except to refrain from canvasing my page, and refrain from making false accusations at me. Gsonnenf (talk) 19:19, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
