One interpretation of his reason for leaving could be that he was dissatisfied with the Wikimedia' communities to resolve disputes. His particular concern was the unpleasantness of being reviewed which can come from criticism during the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Good_article_criteria" title="Wikipedia:Good article criteria">good article review</a> process. </p><p>As a result of this editor leaving, some other editors have discussed establishing an "A" rank for medical articles. In the an earlier grading scheme for articles, it was thought that "A" could be conferred by individual WikiProjects with subject matter expertise, and that "Good article" and "Featured article" status would be comprehensive reviews done by the entire Wikimedia community. However, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:MILHIST" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:MILHIST">WikiProject Military History</a> is the only WikiProject which has ever been organized enough to provide "A" level reviews. There is some discussion that if WikiProject Medicine offered A level reviews, it would be a way for this project to give feedback in a more closed and friendly environment which is more accustomed to reviewing health content. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="FDA_rules_on_Wikipedia" data-mw-thread-id="h-FDA_rules_on_Wikipedia-What's_happening"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-FDA_rules_on_Wikipedia-What's_happening"></span>FDA rules on Wikipedia<span data-mw-comment-end="h-FDA_rules_on_Wikipedia-What's_happening"></span></h3></div> <p><a href="/wiki/User:Formerly_98" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Formerly 98">Formerly 98</a> reports that the United States <a href="/wiki/Food_and_Drug_Administration" title="Food and Drug Administration">Food and Drug Administration</a> is <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_50#FDA_Issues_Guidance_on_Pharmaceutical_Company_Correction_of_Misinformation_on_Social_Websites" title="Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine/Archive 50">issuing guidance on the correction of misinformation on health topics on social media websites</a>.
