For student editors, two elements in particular can help avoid commons problems:

PMID references: for references to sources in PubMed, be sure to include the PMIDs within the citations. This ensures that other editors will be able to easily track down the sources themselves.
Recommended article sections: for the common types of medicine-related articles — diseases and disorders, drugs and devices, surgeries and procedures, signs and symptoms, elements of anatomy, medical tests, etc. — there are typical sections (in a typical order) that are recommended. For new articles, or expansion of existing articles, students should take these standard organizational patterns as starting points.
