Welcome

[edit]

Hi Myles, welcome to Wikipedia. paul klenk

Thank you for the welcome and the good advice. As may be apparant I am a consultant orthopaedic surgeon. I have had a strong interest in informatics and edit Orthopaedic Web Links (OWL) the largest Orthopaedic Directory of the Internet. Wikipedia is a natural extension of my interests.--Mylesclough 03:07, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

orthopedic outline

[edit]

The outline that you gave at Talk:Luxating patella looks fine to me, but I'm a dog person, not a medical person, so I can't comment on its completeness. If you haven't already, you might check other types of medical articles to see whether they've yet come up with a standard outline that you can build from. You might start by proposing this outline on the discussion page at Wikipedia:WikiProject Clinical medicine. And as long as the content makes sense to a typical layperson, I'm happy. :-) Elf | Talk 08:09, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the comment. I have been looking around the WikiProject Medical pages for a templateof this sort. Most of them are a lot more specific to medical subjects as opposed to surgical ones. In surgery a lot of the emphasis is on should one operate or not and which procedure to recommend. I have a whole different template for discussing operations (see Knee replacement). Subluxation of the patella is a common problem in teenaged kids but treatment is not always successful; perhaps we might learn from the vets!

Too many capitals

[edit]

I think you're using too many capitals in section headings. See my edits to replacement joint and see Wikipedia:Manual of Style. Michael Hardy 00:02, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Also see my edits to hip fracture. Michael Hardy 00:10, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

... and distal radius fracture. Michael Hardy 00:14, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I moved Reconstructive Surgery (Disambiguation) to reconstructive surgery (disambiguation). On that page, the link to Reconstructive Surgery failed to work because the R was incorrectly capitalized, so knowing these conventions is useful. Michael Hardy 00:26, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

... and now I see that you've posted dozens of copies of a proposed template on lots of talk pages, containing all those incorrect capitals (see Wikipedia:Manual of Style.) Could you go back and fix them so that we can all avoid cleaning up the articles later? Thanks. Michael Hardy 00:33, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies will try to fix, if it hasn't been done already--Mylesclough 18:24, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
