- You're welcome. If I can give another tip, I'd minimize the amount of external links to sources like Medpagetoday. I've replaced one of them you put on asthma with a referenced addition to the text of the article (see here: http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Asthma&diff=prev&oldid=245938831). But unless you are familiar with PubMed, I don't think this can be expected of you. Just realize that external links by themselves have little value, and are likely to be removed as the article grows and improves. --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 18:47, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
