Welcome to Libre Pathology!

Here are a few useful pages:

• Help:How to edit - describes the wiki mark-up.
• LP:Format - describes the format of the site.
• LP:References - shows how references are done.
• LP:Sandbox - a place to try edits.

Some guidelines:

• LP:Be bold - just try it out!
• LP:Verifiability - what to use for references.
• LP:No original research - Libre Pathology is not a primary source.

By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages and Discussion pages using three tildes, like this: Four tildes (~~~~ ) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. Michael (talk) 23:23, 18 May 2015 (EDT)

Pathology questions? Pathology review?

I noted that you moved things from the study group to the article Robbins and Cotran 9th Edition Questions. I am wondering if there is a better name -- Pathology questions or Pathology review or Pathology notes.

References to Robbins are great... and I even have a template for Robbins 9th Ed. You can use it to generate references. For example:

{{Ref Robbins9|123}}

Generates the Robbins reference to page 123.

Ultimately, the goal is a resource that can be read without needing to buy a book. Michael (talk) 23:18, 18 May 2015 (EDT)

References not in PubMed/very new publications

These are a bit of a pain. The only solution I have is filling the 'Template:Cite_journal' template by hand. Documentation for that is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_journal

It is basically fill-out the following:

{{Cite journal | last1 = | first1 = | last2 = | first2 = | title = | journal = | volume = | issue = | pages = | month = | year = | doi = | PMID = | PMC = | url = }}

As for Chetty and TSAs... I presume you are referring to - this article: http://www.humanpathol.com/article/S0046-8177(15)00123-9/abstract

I've filled it out by hand:

{{Cite journal | last1 = Bettington | first1 = ML. | last2 = Chetty | first2 = R. | title = Traditional Serrated Adenoma: an update | journal = Human Pathology | volume = 60 | issue = | pages = | month = | year = 2015 | doi = 10.1016/j.humpath.2015.04.002 | PMID = | PMC = | url = }}

It would look like this in the reference section:

Bettington, ML.; Chetty, R. (2015). "Traditional Serrated Adenoma: an update". Human Pathology 60. doi:10.1016/j.humpath.2015.04.002.

The DOIs are usually issued right away -- as they are issued by the (journal) publisher and serve as a unique identifier... even if the journal is not PubMed listed. My impression is that PubMed listings take weeks to one or two months. Michael (talk) 01:38, 20 May 2015 (EDT)
