recent removal of content[edit]
I removed the content on the recent emergency power ban of puberty blockers by the UK gov. The reason being that no medical organisation was reached out to so it shouldn't be in stances of medical organisations and that the legislation is more complicated than a strict ban (under 18s already on it through the NHS are excluded, other uses are allowed). As well as this the long term impact of this ban seems very suspect.
Main reason for making this was expanding the ideas given for removal and making an easy place for discussion about inclusion on the topic. LunaHasArrived (talk) 13:07, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

- Under "My Collections", almost at the end of the page, find the box for Wiley. Click on the blue "Access collection" button.
- That will take you to the Wiley search page. Put the title of the article/chapter/book into the main search box.
- Click on the matching result. Some of them display on the page, and some require you to download the PDF. (Downloading a whole textbook takes a long time. I've had better results with picking and choosing chapters.)
