WikiDoc scholar program project checklist
- Microchapters or single pages will only be considered complete when all the requirements in the standard project checklist have been fulfiled.
- To make sure the requirements in the standard project checklist are met, the scholar should:
 Search Google to identify all synonyms for the disease, and add the synonyms to the home page. (Click here to learn how to add synonyms)
 Check the list of topics and make sure that no other microchaptered page with a synonym to my topic has already been created.
 Create redirects to the disease page the scholar is working on (including all the synonyms I identified). (Click here to learn how to make redirects)
 Remove all abbreviations of the disease name from the microchapters content, add them to the Synonyms and Keywords, and make sure they redirect to the disease page.
 Add authors to pages with content and keep all existing authors who previously contributed to the page as first associate editor-in-chief co-authors.
 Organize all existing content, one sentence at a time, into the correct microchapters.
 Add content that was missing from WikiDoc but present on WikiPatient.
 Make sure that external websites (from which the information is being copied) including pages on government websites are not protected by copyright, and make sure that the information you want is available for public distribution , copying, and dissemination.
