Norovirus#Vaccine_trials
[edit]This needs updating. Do you have journal access in order to back up claimes being made in the UK media?

The claims seem to relate to Phase 3 trials in the United Kingdom. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 17:03, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- I personally do not see the need for review articles to discuss this. The popular press IMO is just fine as one is just stating that a trial is about to begin, not making any medical claims mdwiki:Norovirus#Vaccines Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 07:55, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- Found one review and it is under an open license. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 08:14, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
Uploading images to Wikimedia from open source journal articles
[edit]Quick question about protocol for medical images -- are we allowed to upload images from open source scientific journals to Wikimedia? If so, is there anything we need to do beyond giving the article's reference in the description? I enjoy sandwiches (talk) 19:46, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yes we can as long as they are CC BY or CC BY SA. For NC and ND licensed images you can upload them here to NC Commons. Nothing special from a pt consent POV as it is assumed that the journal itself takes care of that. Have been thinking of doing a mass upload at some point.
