Your query

As far as pointing you to the main users, I've already pointed them to your thread at the Schizophrenia article. As I said, the Psych area of Wiki is very weak, but in terms of those of us who write featured articles, Eubulides (talk · contribs) works on autism-related articles and many others, Casliber (talk · contribs) works on schizophrenia and others (he is currently working to bring major depressive disorder up to speed, so your crosspost there wasn't needed), I work on Tourette syndrome and others, Fainites (talk · contribs) works on reactive attachment disorder, etc. I've put out the word, but unless the Psych Project miraculously gets stronger, WP:MED will be a good, central place, and I've already posted there.[1] If that doesn't yield something, I'll point you in some other directions tomorrow. I'm not on the West Coast, so it's past my bedtime :-) SandyGeorgia (Talk) 04:36, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, reviewing the content on your website, Fvasconcellos (talk · contribs) is tied in to the pharm Project and is an excellent editor who also works on medical articles, Casliber is working on bipolar disorder, ADHD on Wiki is a wreck (just like it is elsewhere on the 'net, I think it's an attentional thing :-), and you can generally see the state of psych articles on Wiki by looking at WP:FA (look in the bio category and the psych category) and WP:GA. As you'll see, besides what I mentioned, there is work to be done. By the way, it's excellent that you approached someone instead of just beginning to add your site, and that you've divulged your potential COI; had you just started adding the link, you could have gotten off on the wrong foot and ended up on the spambot, COI list :-) More tomorrow, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 04:49, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mindsite, I have your page watchlisted, so we can communicate here. Your proposal should go in a subpage, which can be transcluded to other places. If you give me a suggested (brief) title, I'll set the page up for you. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:38, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal for use of online DSM-IV

Mindsite has licensed approximately half of the DSM-IV, making this text freely available at our website. Read more on our discussion of copyright issues. For our WP:COI disclaimer, please check our profile User:Mindsite.

Our goal is to identify the best way to integrate this knowledge into relevant existing mental health related articles. To this end, we ask for both assistance and recommendations on how to accomplish this goal. Ideas at this point for using the DSM-IV resource include:

  • Fair use excerpts within the article
  • Replace DSM-IV references with direct link to the full text
  • Use in External links or Further reading
  • Use in 'Classification and external resources' sidebar
