Tuberculosis

Hello Doc James, thank you for bringing over the article about Tuberculosis. I know that the article on the English Wikipedia has the status of "good article". Following the comment of User:Macdonald-ross on the talk page of the article, I simplified the introduction of your article, adding the references where necessary, but I removed the rest. An article here even if it is medically accurate and complete is next to useless, if our target audience does not understand it. So, when you bring over articles, please keep your audience in mind: Your perspective should be that of explaining to an interested patient, or a general audience, and not that of publishing in a peer-reviewed medical journal. Medical terminology is fine, provided there are linked articles that explain the term. I think getting a medically accurate article on TB is a worthwile task, but given the amount of work needed for simplification (adapting to the audience), this should be done in stages... --Eptalon (talk) 11:17, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. Will leave this to others who are interested. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:33, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
