The problems are fundamental. The topic of a Wikipedia article has been produced in video format, hosted here and embedded in the lead of 300 of our medical articles. This content is not collaboratively editable and does not conform to any of Wikipedia's fundamental polices or guidelines. I have now found three articles where Doc James edit wars to retain these videos when editors find problems, and I have no doubt there are many more. I'm not surprised by this because I have not found Doc James capable of collaborative editing, but these videos take that to the extreme. Since when did fixing issues on Wikipedia require "pointing out to the creator" and waiting for them to get around to re-doing a video. This is a wiki. I'm supposed to be able to change it. Quickly. This is article content WP:OWNED by Osmosis and forced upon us by Doc James. Additionally, is anyone here happy that WP:MEDRS doesn't apply? The fundamental for Wikipedia use by students, journalists, etc should be that we provide sources so they can check the facts and jump off to other professional publications where they can read more. This is not possible in an "article-as-as-video". This stuff belongs on YouTube.</dd> <dd>Cas, would you be happy if someone came along to one of your featured articles, and inserted a bold paragraph in the lead. It begins with "Content created by Osmosis", contains several factual errors, and ends with Facebook and Twitter links to Osmosis. When you press the Edit button to revise it, you are told to fill in a form and your complaint will be forward to Osmosis for consideration. Meanwhile you are unable to remove or revise it. That's what we have here. It is "content" and our content and behavioural policies must apply. I think all of it should be removed from WP. Editors may link to it if they find it meets our WP:EL policy. -- <a href="/wiki/User:Colin" title="User:Colin">Colin</a>°<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Colin" title="User talk:Colin">Talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Colin-2018-03-26T13:41:00.000Z-Casliber-2018-03-26T13:26:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:41, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>You raise some valid points but I am unhappy with your approach.

This project seems to have lost its way since the time we fought so hard for quality sourcing in health and bio medical content. Editing for the overall medical integrity of our articles has been replaced by three competing concerns: translating leads, building some little box thingie to spread our increasingly outdated content, and installing videos that are against the very core of everything we accomplished with MEDRS.

They raise concerns for me with respect to verifiability and reliability, and in the medical case, are quite at odds with MEDRS (which we would not likely have today were it not for Colin's insight and incisive editing). These people are creating videos without the knowledge of the recent highest quality sources we require in medicine. <a href="/wiki/User:SandyGeorgia" title="User:SandyGeorgia">SandyGeorgia</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SandyGeorgia" title="User talk:SandyGeorgia">Talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SandyGeorgia-2018-03-26T15:17:00.000Z-SlimVirgin-2018-03-26T14:27:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:17, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Sandy, I should have said that they might be okay as External links, but not if there are sourcing and accuracy issues. Allowing a private company to host its own material within the body of articles is an odd thing to have done, especially when it's in the business of selling paid versions of the videos, so I'd like to know how this came about. <a href="/wiki/User:SlimVirgin" title="User:SlimVirgin">SarahSV</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:SlimVirgin" title="User talk:SlimVirgin">(talk)</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SlimVirgin-2018-03-26T15:45:00.000Z-SandyGeorgia-2018-03-26T15:17:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:45, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a></dd> <dd>I agree they are better in EL, based on what I've seen. If they are seriously outdated, then they should be removed until they have been updated. On most topics there is a ton of serious medical vids that could be used. Having just watched an Osmosis one for the full 10 minutes, on <a href="/wiki/Pancreatic_neuroendocrine_tumor" title="Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor">PanNETs</a> (not yet linked from the article, it had a clear if slow-moving explanation of what the pancreas does, and where tumours can start, but only super-brief bits on diagnosis and treatment. In my usual area of art history, we have large numbers of 4-5 minute videos from <a href="/wiki/Khan_Academy" title="Khan Academy">Khan Academy</a> embedded in articles, which I'm fine with. The video is obviously helpful, they use decent academic art historians, and being out of date is not a serious issue. Actually many medical articles would benefit from a curated group of say 3-4 video links in EL. I don't at all like the DMOZ/now Curlie links that is all many articles have in EL - I think most have not been properly updated for years, and they are wildly US-centric. There is a lot of excellent stuff on You Tube, but also a lot of mediocre stuff by doctors, and of course much pure crap/fringe. <a href="/wiki/User:Johnbod" title="User:Johnbod">Johnbod</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Johnbod" title="User talk:Johnbod">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Johnbod-2018-03-26T16:29:00.000Z-SandyGeorgia-2018-03-26T15:17:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:29, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I see it was discussed at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_76#Videos" title="Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine/Archive 76">Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine/Archive 76#Videos</a> in December 2015. <a href="/wiki/User:SlimVirgin" title="User:SlimVirgin">SarahSV</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:SlimVirgin" title="User talk:SlimVirgin">(talk)</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SlimVirgin-2018-03-26T16:31:00.000Z-Johnbod-2018-03-26T16:29:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:31, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <ul><li>(<a href="/wiki/Help:Edit_conflict" title="Help:Edit conflict">edit conflict</a>) There are some valid concerns being raised here but the sloppiness and cow-having in this thread is not conducive to working anything out. <a href="/wiki/User:Jytdog" title="User:Jytdog">Jytdog</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jytdog" title="User talk:Jytdog">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Jytdog-2018-03-26T16:35:00.000Z-Colin-2018-03-26T11:06:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:35, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a></li></ul> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>You'll have to translate "cow-having ". <a href="/wiki/User:Johnbod" title="User:Johnbod">Johnbod</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Johnbod" title="User talk:Johnbod">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Johnbod-2018-03-26T16:38:00.000Z-Jytdog-2018-03-26T16:35:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:38, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><dl><dd><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/have-a-cow">have a cow</a>, verb. cow-having = <a href="/wiki/Nominalization" title="Nominalization">nominalization</a>. <a href="/wiki/User:Jytdog" title="User:Jytdog">Jytdog</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jytdog" title="User talk:Jytdog">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Jytdog-2018-03-26T16:45:00.000Z-Johnbod-2018-03-26T16:38:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:45, 26 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><dl><dd>Ok, not known in UK.

As well, and because of that editors must be able to edit the content. I have long felt that health related articles should be edited by experts and then locked. But then who are the experts one wonders. Second to that, if not locked readers should be welcomed with an article tag telling them the article can be edited by anyone.

Quick vs. sudden are significant terms in neurology-- they are wrong at Tic disorders.

You are aware as a physician that those are separate entities. RBD is dream enactment behavior during REM sleep. It can be as simple as flinching, flailing legs or arms-- no walking, no talking need be involved (although they may be). The description is inaccurate in ways that leads to misdiagnosis, so who are we educating, and why educate them incorrectly? That matters to us, right? We wouldn't do it in an article, so why a video? They Are Wrong. You are trained to value precision in medical description and terminology. They don't seem to be. I am surprised at you defending them.</dd> <dd>4) Some of the direction here is driving inaccuracies into the leads of every article I see. This is not Simple Wikipedia. (A thought: why not have the translation project work off of simple Wikipedia, since that is the level they want?) Seeking the most dumbed-down sources and driving them into the lead of every article quite often has resulted in errors-- both blatant, and of significant nuance. Leads are summaries per Wikipedia guideline for a good reason. I recognize and appreciate your personal sacrifice, dedication, and effort. It is indisputable. I do.But. I ask that you listen to other editors, and realize some of these projects are costing us (us being WP:MED in terms of content guidelines we fought to gain long ago, that are now being undermined ... do you know what it is to have gotten MEDRS accepted as a guideline?? What other Project can claim a change as important as that one was? Why would we now defend poor content, because it is in videos?The loss of Colin to medical editing was no small thing. Why do you think I have also been absent, Doc? Content is being degraded, and working on it is harder and harder, with less and less of a collaborative spirit. I merrily left behind the utterly inexcusable prostate suite to go work in an entirely different area, where an article badly need to be rebuilt from the ground up, knowing I could do it, not remotely expecting to hit this wall. Editing here is supposed to be fun, not driven by the commercial interests of outside projects.

We are not paid to edit for them, yet they make money off of being given a highly preferential position on Wikipedia. It is curious that there was no consensus, either here or wiki-wide to breach so many content policies and guidelines with these videos, but now you want consensus to delete them. <a href="/wiki/User:SandyGeorgia" title="User:SandyGeorgia">SandyGeorgia</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SandyGeorgia" title="User talk:SandyGeorgia">Talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SandyGeorgia-2018-03-27T07:59:00.000Z-Doc_James-2018-03-27T07:49:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:59, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><dl><dd>There is nothing that when clicked on brings you to the site in question.

I do this in multiple ways a) by writing the leads in easy to understand language b) by working to provide video content for those who might have limited reading ability (through partnerships with Osmosis) Or simple prefer to learn by video c) by translation into other languages in collaboration with many folks both inside and outside Wikipedia d) by building offline apps in partnership with Kiwix e) by working with folks at Internet-in-a-Box to get Wikipedia's medical content out to those with no access to the Internet" These are perhaps goals of some in WikiMedia Foundation generally and some are goals for third parties (Kwix, Internet in a box) and some are goals for other Wikipedias (translation). The are not obviously and naturally goals for English Wikipedia, which is our primary purpose. This is a text-based hyperlinked encyclopaedia where we collaboratively edit text (and only text) to produce educational encyclopaedic content. We supplement these articles with images and other audio-visual clips, which reside on Commons, and are not collaboratively editable. If you have a mission to create educational videos, covering whole article topics, then that is not Wikipedia's mission. We are not YouTube. Go talk to WMF about creating a sister project WikiVideo. I have seen too many times Doc James pervert our article content to suit his pet projects, which are not aligned with English Wikipedia. Four years ago I saw him spend his time dumbing down our leads to baby language in the assumption that this made it easier to translate or with the idea that this was Simple English wikipedia, for those who find English hard to read. We saw him try to force one citation style template on us, in order to make copy/paste translation easier. We now see him claim these videos must be embedded into articles so that his offline app partnership can include the video. That's your partnership Doc James, your goal. When has the wider Wikipedia community agreed to have a commercial third party create article-videos embedded in the lead of our articles? Would you be happy to read political articles on Wikipedia created and sponsored by Fox News?

There are many red herrings in this sprawling discussion but this issue of expertise is core to our mandate. The main writer of Osmosis's video on breastfeeding, <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/philip-m-boone-md-phd-18a80596/">Philip Boone</a>, is a medical resident whose most relevant qualification is having graduated from medical school, a whopping two years before working for Osmosis. My impression when I first saw this video was, "Wow, this guy is totally incompetent when it comes to breastfeeding. Your average <a href="/wiki/La_Leche_League" title="La Leche League">La Leche League</a> leader down the street knows more than he does." Reading his LinkedIn profile gave me no reassurance. (If anyone's wondering what kinds of qualifications make someone an expert in the medical specialty of breastfeeding, <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.goldlearning.com/speaker/335/ruth-lawrence">Ruth Lawrence</a>'s bio lists some.)

There is even the philosophical question of Wikipedia having essentially "frozen" and practically unverifiable content. Putting that aside, as reasonable people may differ on those questions. There is one point where I can see no reasonable argument and that is the matter of hosting advertisements for an outside organization and from what I have seen these are straight up spam. <div class="paragraphbreak" style="margin-top:0.5em"></div> Sure, they allegedly provide some good information but they exist to promote a company and sell subscriptions. Issues with medical content aside, these videos simply fail <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTPROMO" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTPROMO">WP:NOTPROMO</a> and, in their current form, are unacceptable for use on Wikipedia. Period. I sure would like to hear how anyone thought these were acceptable. Really, I am all ears. Do we now differentiate between good spam and bad spam? Anyway, my thought is that any discussion of the merits of these videos should probably take a back seat to this fundamental violation of Wikipedia core content policy. <div class="paragraphbreak" style="margin-top:0.5em"></div> The simplest way to address this would be to edit each of the video files to remove the spam sections of the video. I have, however, read that these files are not editable? Is that the case? If so I assume that it is but a minor thing for those who arranged for these videos to ask Osmosis to provide the content without the advertisements and links. If Osmosis is not willing to do so then they are intended as spam and need to be removed for that reason. <div class="paragraphbreak" style="margin-top:0.5em"></div> Long form video may have a place in Wikipedia's future but not as an advertising vehicle for an external organization. <a href="/wiki/User:Jbhunley" title="User:Jbhunley">Jbh</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jbhunley" title="User talk:Jbhunley"> Talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Jbhunley-2018-03-27T00:22:00.000Z-How_are_these_not_spam?" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:22, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>They can be edited, of course.

It would probably be quite hard even for Osmosis to do this because some of the original creators of the videos no longer work for the company. But hey, it wouldn't be too hard to splice in new content if we weren't trying to make it look consistent. A Wikipedian could, for instance, create a 60-second clip, in whatever tool and style they want, that summarizes the errors in the video and points out that the author of the video is a nonspecialist medical resident. And then that clip could be quite easily spliced into the start of the Osmosis video and re-uploaded. <a href="/wiki/User:Clayoquot" title="User:Clayoquot">Clayoquot</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Clayoquot" title="User talk:Clayoquot">talk</a> | <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Clayoquot" title="Special:Contributions/Clayoquot">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Clayoquot-2018-03-27T03:56:00.000Z-TenOfAllTrades-2018-03-27T03:23:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:56, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>oh, I like the way you think, Clayoquot! Jbh, "I sure would like to hear how anyone thought these were acceptable." 'Tis a mystery. And I have pondered it. Fundamental violation of ... just about everything ... and no one even noticed for years (I have an excuse, I wasn't editing :) Perhaps people have found creating content to be too hard, so are happy to outsource content they just manage? Perhaps with the overall decline in Wikipedia editing, no one is home anymore? Perhaps ... no one cares anymore? I really cannot understand how we got so far off track with this. I just wanted to work on a really badly outdated article, and hit this. We can't edit away the errors, and I can't understand why we would want to. <a href="/wiki/Dementia_with_Lewy_bodies" title="Dementia with Lewy bodies">Dementia with Lewy bodies</a> had 100,000 hits on one day only this week (I can't figure out why), on March 21,<a class="external autonumber" href="https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&range=latest-20&pages=Dementia_with_Lewy_bodies">[11]</a> and the article was a wreck at that point. How many of those people said to heck with Wikipedia, and went first to this video? Our medical content has become a vehicle for someone else to make money, while we slave away like ninnies. So, in the series from Ocaassi I re-posted above, Step 3 never happened. We could start with asking why that never happened, and why the project proceeded without that consensus, and even if it had happened, why anyone ever thought that WP:MED was a place where consensus could be generated to breach all manner of policy and guideline.

I did not think it was any organized effort, but I have been looking for what drove the spike. I'm not sure that particular article is it, although the event may be. Usually a spike that high is because some event happens where there is a direct link on the news source or webpage to the Wikipedia article, and I haven't been able to find anything like that. Another thing that happened on March 21 was an exciting new research discovery related to Parkinson's. Or perhaps a #MeToo site linked to us, per the Mindy thing. Anyway, I brought it up because I had barely begun work on that article on 21 March, and it was in pretty bad shape. Anyone coming to Wikipedia probably said WTH, and went for the video instead. I am now about halfway through improving the article, and picked up six new journal articles today when I was at the hospital. I wish it had had a 100,000 spike next week!

Osmosis do not manufacture a treatment for the condition in question. They are not paid by a PR agency or company that does. Another examples is that the NIH does not have a COI when working on Wikipedia about PTSD. Osmosis does not have a COI when they produce a video about abscesses. If people are unhappy with the social media links I am sure they would be fine with removing them and because these videos are under an open license we can remove them ourselves.

Wikipedia does not "advertise" for anyone, and has no plans to. The degree to which the Osmosis videos are adverts or fremium content teasers for their paid subscription videos, is up for debate. If the Lancet were to recruit doctors to create content for Wikipedia I would also be concerned, as such content would be subject to the editorial focus of the Lancet and its publisher. This is why Wikipedia is fundamentally a volunteer created collaboratively edited project. I have no problem with commercially created images or short video clips such as an electron microscope image of cells or a chemical reaction. These single-topic media files are self-asserting -- editors can judge if they are what they say they are, and add or remove them if there is conflict. Entire article-topic videos are a different matter, where a narrator presents their own version of the article text spoken out loud, and offers their own personal opinion on what aspects of the topic to cover and avoid. It is quite notable that these clips were originally created for medical students -- the focus is all wrong for the general reader. So we have the editorial focus of Osmosis, not of Wikipedia. That is the very definition of "Conflict of Interest". And any complaints by editors on Wikipedia are met with edit warring by Doc James, and a possible promise of a future revised video, which it seems, does not often come. These are well documented facts. -- <a href="/wiki/User:Colin" title="User:Colin">Colin</a>°<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Colin" title="User talk:Colin">Talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Colin-2018-03-27T09:00:00.000Z-Pldx1-2018-03-27T08:23:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:00, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a></dd> <dd>Dear <a href="/wiki/User:Colin" title="User:Colin">User:Colin</a>.

There has been a lack of quality multi-media on Wikipedia amidst a media-consumption environment where people increasingly seek video content and explanations to help understand concepts. For that reason, having a video 'above the fold' was important for discoverability, so that people would find and watch them. Osmosis was offering open-licensed, high-quality medical content in a format we very often lack; it was seen as a potential boon to our articles. They offered the content and said, more or less, "wouldn't it be cool if when people read about a medical topic there was a high-quality, free video they would find to help understand it?" There weren't any strings attached that I can remember about the videos having to be in one part of the article versus another. It was basically, "take our content and put it where it will be useful to readers." --Jake <a href="/wiki/User:Ocaasi" title="User:Ocaasi">Ocaasi</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Ocaasi" title="User talk:Ocaasi">t </a>|<a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Ocaasi" title="Special:Contributions/Ocaasi"> c</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Ocaasi-2018-03-27T19:54:00.000Z-Doc_James-2018-03-27T19:08:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:54, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:Ocaasi" title="User:Ocaasi">Jake</a>, thanks for the explanation.

The problem with conflict on the internet is that, just as one time zone is settling in and settling down, another time zone is waking up, and the conflict is reignited. I'm looking at a holiday weekend, followed by the start of radiation therapy for my husband, which will involve hours of driving every day for a long time. It's beautiful out where I am. I wonder if we might not all go enjoy our weekend, let things settle, and come back to try and solve problems with clear minds? This has not been pleasant for anyone.

I have found when working with Wikipedia, that it is vital not just to avoid conflict of interest, but to avoid any appearance of conflict of interest. The very nature of pseudonymous editing, and online collaboration and interactions make it difficult to prove or disprove that a COI exists most of the time. I don't think I have a COI concerning Osmosis – I'd forgotten we had any connection with them, to be honest – but I agree that if I take a position on this dispute, I leave myself open to an accusation of COI. It matters not a jot that I think I can take a position without being affected by an external interest, it's not in the best interest of a focused debate to open the door to tangential issues. I'd like to step away from this dispute, and I'd strongly recommend that all parties consider the same. I'm still willing to offer what technical help I can, if asked, but there's precious little left to be gained from further churn, in my opinion. Colin has kindly taken the time to reach out to me off-wiki and I think we can remain on good terms going forward. You can rest assured that I'll take the time to talk with James privately about what lessons we've learned and how we can do better in future. We're all in this for the same reason: to create a wonderful encyclopedia that everyone can use, and we could use some comradeship to get that going again.

Doc, I have not wanted to extend the debate to every detail that is wrong with every video, but this will not suffice as a solution. (You are overlooking the "suffer from" POV at tic disorder among others, and the coeliac problems expressed at Jimbo talk, and the still poor text at dementia with Lewy bodies, and we haven't even systematically evaluated others.) We are seeing the same walled garden problem here that led to this issue happening in the first place, as is mentioned at Jimbo talk; this is a Wikipedia-wide issue, and yet we are seeing proposals on one Project page, with no acknowledgement of the extent of the issues these videos create ... in spite of almost no support for these videos in the wider discussion at Talk:Jimbo. We are also seeing no movement here on the matter that whether these videos are in individual articles is a matter for consensus, and without resolution, we could be headed for the dreaded infobox territory. It seems that most of the issues have surfaced now, and Colin has had an opportunity to put forward the essay at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_is_not_YouTube" title="Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not YouTube">Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not YouTube</a>. I agree with Colin that moving to RFC too fast is not conducive to good resolution of problems, but it appears that, if we are not quite there yet, we are approaching the time when we should begin to consider who will draft a Wikipedia-wide RFC. It is usually best to have two people, who represent the opposing viewpoints. This situation is not sustainable, and the sooner we get broad consensus, the better in terms of minimizing the issues we will face on many articles. I echo SV's concern that you not continue to proceed, Doc, as if this were a one-person or one-project matter. <a href="/wiki/User:SandyGeorgia" title="User:SandyGeorgia">SandyGeorgia</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SandyGeorgia" title="User talk:SandyGeorgia">Talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SandyGeorgia-2018-03-27T19:47:00.000Z-SlimVirgin-2018-03-27T19:27:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:47, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>No this is not entirely correct.

Is Doc James a representative of Knowledge Diffusion (the company) and/or Osmosis, or is he holding himself out to them as a representative of Wikipedia? I don't doubt that James is acting in good faith or that he has what he believes are the project's best interests at heart. However I am not sure why we are relying on James to be our sole conduit to Osmosis. Why is he in the position to choose which requests, suggestions, or concerns get passed on to Osmosis staff, and why is he posting responses on their behalf? Osmosis and Knowledge Diffusion should have their own representative able to engage directly with the Wikipedia community. It's not fair to Doc James or to the Wikipedia community to ask Doc to serve two masters here. <a href="/wiki/User:TenOfAllTrades" title="User:TenOfAllTrades">TenOfAllTrades</a>(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:TenOfAllTrades" title="User talk:TenOfAllTrades">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-TenOfAllTrades-2018-03-27T20:01:00.000Z-Point_of_order" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:01, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:TenOfAllTrades" title="User:TenOfAllTrades">User:TenOfAllTrades</a> I have no formal relationship with Osmosis or Knowledge Diffusion and do not represent them in any manner.

And thus I generally supported adding them and still support keeping them (with modifications).</dd> <dd>I was involved with convincing them to use an open license and to upload their videos to Wikipedia starting back in 2015. I began this when one of there members (a pediatrician at Stanford) was still working part time at the <a href="/wiki/Khan_academy" class="mw-redirect" title="Khan academy">Khan academy</a>.

When Osmosis formed they were much more interested in using open licenses and working with us.</dd> <dd>In these discussion I speak on my own behalf. Happy to ask them to respond here directly if people wish. Looks like some are simply push to remove the videos entirely though. This does not really require them to join in a discussion.

(I mean that, precisely - almost every word). But really. "serve two masters"? That is your first slide over into the lala land that Colin et al are painting.</dd> <dd>There is no big dark thing going here.</dd> <dd>Doc James has advocated for accessible content for a long time. That is what the translation task force is all about, for example. As already discussed in <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_76#Videos" title="Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine/Archive 76">the 1st post about this here at WTMED</a>, Doc James started working with the folks at Khan Academy (a nonprofit) on medical videos for WP, and the person Doc James was collaborating with there left Khan and continued the work at Osmosis.</dd> <dd>It seems to me that Doc James likes the videos since they are meant-for-the-public educational material that are freely licensed, and reasonably good quality. (they are not "created for med students" as Colin keeps saying). They arguably help us meet our mission.</dd> <dd>All that said i totally agree that it would be great to have osmosis reps in the discussion; it would have been great if there had been more dialogue all through this time period. <a href="/wiki/User:Jytdog" title="User:Jytdog">Jytdog</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jytdog" title="User talk:Jytdog">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Jytdog-2018-03-27T20:37:00.000Z-TenOfAllTrades-2018-03-27T20:01:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:37, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>OsmoseIt, <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Coeliac_disease&diff=prev&oldid=710100556">23:47, 14 March 2016 (UTC)</a>: "The target audience of our videos is for medical students ..." <a href="/wiki/User:SlimVirgin" title="User:SlimVirgin">SarahSV</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:SlimVirgin" title="User talk:SlimVirgin">(talk)</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SlimVirgin-2018-03-27T23:17:00.000Z-Jytdog-2018-03-27T20:37:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:17, 27 March 2018 (UTC)</a></dd> <dd>"Serve two masters" is reasonable idiomatic English in context, where it was ambiguous what role(s) Doc James held officially or unofficially with respect to Wikipedia and Osmosis. And even though (I don't imagine) it was his intent, has has functionally been Wikipedia's envoy to Osmosis, and also Osmosis' spokesperson here. While your vigorous defence of James' honor is admirable, it's neither necessary nor helpful for you to ratchet up the drama by accusing everyone else of being too dramatic. Picking on Colin doesn't help your argument, either; I hope you'll dial that back.</dd> <dd>There doesn't have to be a "big dark thing" conspiracy for there to be a "substantial suboptimal thing" needing relatively prompt attention. Knowledge Diffusion and Osmosis, with the support of Doc James and what seems to be a very small group of other Wikipedia editors, embarked on a substantial project to insert content from a particular source into prominent places in prominent articles, without a great deal of oversight or review (until now). We seem to be agreed that there should have been more dialogue through the process up to now, and that the community is very uncomfortable with delaying that dialogue much further now. <a href="/wiki/User:TenOfAllTrades" title="User:TenOfAllTrades">TenOfAllTrades</a>(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:TenOfAllTrades" title="User talk:TenOfAllTrades">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-TenOfAllTrades-2018-03-28T00:18:00.000Z-Jytdog-2018-03-27T20:37:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:18, 28 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I respectfully disagree, and will point out that any activity on medical articles on Wikipedia is always the result of what a small group of Wikipedia editors do. <a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">Carl Fredrik</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:CFCF" title="User talk:CFCF"> talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-CFCF-2018-03-28T20:25:00.000Z-TenOfAllTrades-2018-03-28T00:18:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:25, 28 March 2018 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Subpage_agreement_please" data-mw-thread-id="h-Subpage_agreement_please-Osmosis_concerns-2018-03-27T20:29:00.000Z">Subpage agreement please</h3></div> Should we set up a central page for listing issues with individual videos?

One thing I noticed in the March 23 link is that Doc James added videos to three articles with an edit summary of "Added". As Doc James is widely trusted to make competent edits and "Added" is nonspecific, many article watchers would not have checked his additions. If this is his usual edit summary for the 300 videos, I would guess that there are videos on some of our articles that the regular watchers of the article haven't noticed.

In the <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_68">July 2015 discussion</a> linked to above, there's an interesting comment from <a href="/wiki/User:WhatamIdoing" title="User:WhatamIdoing">WhatamIdoing</a>, linking to an update on the WMF strategy discussion that giving us this "more videos" request. I watched 20 minutes of video that she linked to, and read the slides. In that presentation, I am seeing the requests for more videos. I'm not seeing any indications that in this research, we have asked questions like, "What do you want to learn from videos that you aren't currently learning from article text?" Or: "Can you give me an example of an article that ought to have a video, and tell me what should be in that video?" Or that we showed samples of videos to readers with accompanying article content and asked, "Is this video helpful? Is this what you were hoping for? How is it better than just having article text?" Not grasping and communicating the needs behind a so-called requirement, so you understand it only at the most superficial level ("more videos") is one of the main reasons technology projects fail. It's why all software developers love <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.workplaceinsanity.com/2011/06/what-do-your-customers-really-want.html">this cartoon</a>. I'm bringing this up because I fully accept that most readers want more videos, but... what I find hard to believe is that most readers want videos that consist almost entirely of bulleted lists on Powerpoint slides, with a narrator reading the text that is on the slides. Everyone I know detests that kind of video. Especially when the content of text is as exciting as a start-class version of an encyclopedia article and when a more complete encyclopedia article is right in front of them. Some editors here (or maybe only one?) like that kind of video and know people who like that kind of video, but I hypothesize that they are a small minority of the population. If we are going to sink volunteer resources into reviewing video content, we should start with thorough user-centered research into what kinds of videos are actually useful to readers. Then we can make strategic decisions as a community to acquire or develop videos that will meet those needs. <a href="/wiki/User:Clayoquot" title="User:Clayoquot">Clayoquot</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Clayoquot" title="User talk:Clayoquot">talk</a> | <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Clayoquot" title="Special:Contributions/Clayoquot">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Clayoquot-2018-03-28T04:29:00.000Z-What_kinds_of_videos_do_our_readers_want?" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">04:29, 28 March 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><dl><dd>Well their video on pneumonia on YouTube got 133,500 views in the last few months.<a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAQp2Zuqevc">[18]</a></dd> <dd>Their video on tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS each have about half a million views.

Health care workers take the "above all, do no harm" oath. Some of these videos are doing harm. As already mentioned, a baby fed on breast milk alone after six months of age will suffer serious physical effects. That said, IMO most mothers would ignore such obviously incorrect advice. But the video's claim that breast augmentation/reduction only rarely effects milk supply is highly likely to cause harm since there is plenty of similar misinformation included in blogs supported by plastic surgeon's associations, ect., who are more than happy to gloss over the subject of decreased milk supply.

So finding nothing from WHO, the CDC, etc., and apparently not bothering to check for reviews Osmosis just pulled something right out of their ASS, namely "it must be very rare!," and went with it.

If you meant something else with your comment about shorts, I can tell you that I wear them rather often, including while writing this. That you started MEDRS is also not at all relevant, seeing as MEDRS has been rewritten so many times that hardly anything you wrote remains, and parts of the guideline are authored by me. It also doesn't mean you have any right to interpret it beyond that of any other editor, or that the portions you wrote are of any greater importance.

Yes, conflict of interest is determined based on the potential of conflict of interest, but you don't even have that here. Mere association (I have spoken to a staff of Osmosis, at that time telling them that I liked their videos) is not conflict of interest. The goals of WPMEDF, I assure you are not as much in line with Wikipedia's, but the exact same as Wikipedia's. They are even designed and articulated to be the same, and no one on that board is there for any other purpose than to further the goals of Wikipedia within the health and medical field. We are an open group of focused editors who joined up because we thought we could help Wikipedia better by organizing ourselves formally. I can add that membership is free, the meetings are all public, and the minutes are all available.</dd> <dd>I see no community questioning of WPMEDF, rather you, SandyGeorgia and Jbf, and that does not make "the community". [Edit for clarity]<s>Whether</s> Putting the judgement of specific members of the board or [the judgement] of a decision to question is fine, and I'm not going to debate that. I agree that this discussion is about an issue that can be percieved to be caused by the board. However, that is just us depending on how you see it "messing up", or doing something good, not us having a conflict of interest or ulterior motives. I still find the videos good, even if they should never have had the boiler-plate in the end, but that's just not a conflict of interest.

But I do think the advertising was worth a great deal to them in terms of brand recognition, and it allowed them to say to grantgivers that they ran the official Wikipedia medical video library. What puzzles me is this: once they said they were willing to release the videos, all they had to do was upload them to YouTube under a free licence. Then Wikipedians could have removed the company name, uploaded all or bits of them, and had normal content discussions about whether to use them in particular articles. Instead, there's a meeting with a WMF trustee and two WMF staffers, an agreement about where to place them, talk of a partnership, then tracking the pageviews for them at <<a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://partnermetrics.wmflabs.org/mediaplaycounts/api/2/category_playcount/all/Videos_from_Osmosis">https://partnermetrics.wmflabs.org/mediaplaycounts/api/2/category_playcount/all/Videos_from_Osmosis</a>>. <a href="/wiki/User:SlimVirgin" title="User:SlimVirgin">SarahSV</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:SlimVirgin" title="User talk:SlimVirgin">(talk)</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SlimVirgin-2018-04-01T00:12:00.000Z-Jbhunley-2018-03-31T23:56:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:12, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a></dd> <dd>@<a href="/wiki/User:Jbhunley" title="User:Jbhunley">Jbhunley</a>: actually let me correct what I said about them not making millions.

Whether they uploaded the videos to youtube or not is inconsequential for Osmosis, but a large burden for any editor. It amounts to about 5% more work to upload videos here and at youtube. However, to rip from youtube, reformat and reupload is far more work, and would be work for someone who did not have the expertise to do any of that. It would also damage the quality of the videos, because they would not be ripped from lossless files (not very important, but is worth bearing in mind). The boilerplates should still have been removed before uploading (in that case by Osmosis), but as no one here though it consequential enough to do so, or to edit the videos afterwards — it was simply set aside for the future. Not because such a removal wasn't allowed, or that no one could do it, but because no one found it important enough. I would have done it, but I didn't have the time, and I didn't find it a big deal enough to complain.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>2. The meeting with the WMF trustee, that is Doc James (who I might add is the most active volunteer here) was between him and Osmosis primarily because he was the one who started the whole idea. That isn't to say he didn't try to get others involved, even petitioning people multiple times here on this very page. Neither is there any fault in his being a trustee as seems to be implied, and the meeting was never an attempt to go behind anyone's back to add the videos in any clandestine way.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>3. The discussions were about how to best utilize the videos, and not discussing this would have been a grave mistake, because as with any donation of time or effort you want to ask: a) What can be provided; in order to compare it with: b) What is needed; in order to come up with: c) The best potential use of the donated materials. The materials were tailor-made for Wikipedia, and with input from Wikipedians, so it is only natural to have a meeting on how this can be done. The meeting was all about how to run a project with input from Wikipedians. This is sort of the point of all organizations surrounding Wikipedia. This is the point of donations to Wikimedia. This is what they do. Just saying, "here this stuff exists" does not create a useful collaboration, and does not allow Wikipedians to influence the process of <a href="https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Otto_von_Bismarck#Misattributed" class="extiw" title="wikiquote:Otto von Bismarck">making the sausage</a>.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>4. Tracking of pageviews is a very important part of any collaboration. If an organization is willing to donate anything, telling them that people actually see, read, or watch their additions — that is the biggest possible incentive to continue donating. That this was their measure, rather than incoming links is actually a massive plus for them as an organization. They focused on how many people saw and benefited from their content, not how many came to YouTube or donated money on their website.</dd> <dd>I find that throughout this entire endeavour there has been an extreme lack of good faith towards Osmosis. They've tried to do the right thing the whole time, and while not perfect — they've been lambasted far more than is reasonable. They even went so far as to look into a non-profit simply in order to donate videos, but again, thought this less important than actually donating materials. There seems to be an irrational hatred towards anything that has a for-profit focus, one that is completely disconnected from reality. I can tell you that I've worked a full two days of my life in the for-profit sector, the rest in non-profits and government — because I do not wish to work for profit, but this downright hatred is crazy. It borders on calling into question each editors motives because they have a day job, where they make money, thus a profit motive. While there may be donations going into Osmosis from billionaires, the people (mainly 1 individual) doing the work is not a billionaire, and the sums he has to work on are not astronomical. Some would even call them meagre. It surprises me not at all that this criticism wasn't levelled towards the actual content (or omissions) of the videos, but rather at the funding model.</dd> <dd>And a last point:</dd> <dd>5. — They never did any advertising on Wikipedia. Maybe the boilerplate at the ends of videos was undue promotion, but no money ever changed hands, and there was no agreement that any advertisement should occur. Neither was there any sponsorship agreement, and no one discussed whether the boilerplates were necessary. They were completely understood in that their videos, as courtesy of the CC-BY-SA license — could be altered at any time, which of course covered removing the boilerplate. This is also one of the reasons that among those who cared, the boilerplates were given second priority — if anyone ever complained we could fix them then, much like any watermark. This is what is called the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Procrastination_principle&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Procrastination principle (page does not exist)">procrastination principle</a>, and has been a major principle for Wikipedia and the Internet since its inception (it would be a massive shame to lose this principle, there is a good book on the topic in Jonathan Zittrain's "The Future of the Internet"). Had this only been about removing the boilerplates, allowing for a short period to remove these — there had been no issue here, but this is about the attitude of the debate, and the onslaught and assumption of bad faith that has plagued this discussion.</dd> <dd>The point is, if this abrasive attitude is held against all potential non-perfect donators, we will have no donations whatsoever. And with the crazy accusations of COI that have been cast here — we're very likely to lose editors following this discussion. I feel very much on the verge of giving up Wikipedia over it. <a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">Carl Fredrik</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:CFCF" title="User talk:CFCF"> talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-CFCF-2018-04-01T00:52:00.000Z-SlimVirgin-2018-04-01T00:17:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:52, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">CFCF</a>, let me say first that there is no assumption of bad faith on my part toward Osmosis.

And even if you personally did not assume bad faith, as a collective it has been strongly implied that either Osmosis or WPMEDF have had ulterior motives, ranging from backing from Johnson & Johnson to having personal COI regarding any support for the venture.</dd> <dd>I am happy if our WikiProject as well as WPMEDF acts in the interest of improving Wikipedia, and not in the interest of avoiding stepping on any toes, or saddening anyone. The move towards less confrontational behavior from some organizations may be less motivated by doing what is right, and more about ensuring future survival. As we are today WPMEDF has no staff and is in the fortunate position not to have to worry about steady revenue streams, or fallout from the source of that stream.</dd> <dd>I am not very interested in the future survival of WikiProject Med if it can not do its best to improve Wikipedia. I'd rather run 100 programs of which 10 are outstanding and 5 which are controversial — than to run 15, of which 5 are pretty mediocre and 10 that are pointless. I hope the community here at WPMED can get behind this, and accepts that screwing up now and then is in the spirit of Wikiedpia.</dd> <dd>This is also why I can confess that we messed up with the boilerplates, but not that we had any ulterior motives. Our intentions have always been in Wikipedia's best interest. I still think this project did and could have continued to provide good content for Wikipedia, and I continue to disagree with you and the result of the RfC. I can also not say that we're doing anything wrong, and absolutely not that the WikiProject is off track. We should be messing up, because if we grow so stale as to want to avoid any screw-up I know we only exist for our own sake, and not for fulfilling the goals and dreams that we aspire to. <a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">Carl Fredrik</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:CFCF" title="User talk:CFCF"> talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-CFCF-2018-04-01T01:35:00.000Z-SlimVirgin-2018-04-01T01:14:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:35, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="outdent-template" style="position:relative;left:1px;"></div> (edit conflict with SV/CF thread) <a href="/wiki/User:SlimVirgin" title="User:SlimVirgin">SarahSV</a>, I have lots of issues with how this whole collaboration was handled. As described, it would have been easy to just do it right. I can postulate several paths to where we are but when I put my analyst hat on and apply competing hypotheses to the information I have, the product stinks to high heaven. My guess is that there were some kinks There are evidently no contemporaneous notes on the discussions with Osmosis which could be used to place the actions we see in context. I, personally, can not imagine not documenting the shit out of the negotiations, agreement and execution of something like this collaboration. Not only is it basic due diligence, it is Cover-Your-Ass 101. <div class="paragraphbreak" style="margin-top:0.5em"></div> I do not know if it is worth it to dig into the whole mess. Much of it is the purview of the WMF since it involved a board member and an independent foundation which, having a page on Meta, has at least the appearance of being sponsored by the WMF. The information we have could easily be interpreted and presented as a hanging indictment. But to what end? We as editors can only address behavior on-wiki so all we can do here is brow-beat someone who contributes much to the encyclopedia and to the movement in general. It would lead to a drama fest and result in the loss of many good editors and wound the relationships of many others. Is there an outcome that would be worth it? <a href="/wiki/User:Jbhunley" title="User:Jbhunley">Jbh</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jbhunley" title="User talk:Jbhunley"> Talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Jbhunley-2018-04-01T03:25:00.000Z-Break_1_—_COI_again" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:25, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>if you consider that what happened here is symptomatic of other, similar, yes. <a href="/wiki/User:SandyGeorgia" title="User:SandyGeorgia">SandyGeorgia</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:SandyGeorgia" title="User talk:SandyGeorgia">Talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-SandyGeorgia-2018-04-01T03:28:00.000Z-Jbhunley-2018-04-01T03:25:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:28, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>To <a href="/wiki/User:Jbhunley" title="User:Jbhunley">Jbhunley</a>, to adress your "lots of issues":</dd> <dd>1. Nearly everything that occurs on Wikipedia is informal, including I assume that initial meeting. All my interactions with Osmosis were very informal. As I stated above Cover-Your-Assing is not something I wish to engage in, because it eats up time that other projects could have benefited from, and it relies on us feeling that we might be doing something bad. If I feel the need to Cover-My-Ass I know I am doing something that matters more to me than it does to Wikipedia.</dd> <dd>2. You know what was really trying to Cover-Your-Ass and be transparent at the same time (a better trade-off, because there is a positive outcome rather than just thinking about yourself)? Writing the agreement of understanding. And that just blew up, because I assume no one here has read it, or understood that it entailed no money changing hands, and only an assumption that anything Osmosis did was supposed to follow Wikipedia guidelines and policies. So, Cover-Your-Assing seems here to have caused problems rather than solved them — meaning an entirely informal, no-paper-trail agreement would have been better. That is not a good idea, and I'd rather advocate transparency to the point that it is feasible and doesn't take more time than actually running projects. Wanting to Cover-Your-Ass is the opposite of that; by releasing doctored and fine-print minutes you're essentially saying nothing about how the process actually worked. The trail for this project is apparent everywhere, with 10 occasions of discussion on this very page, and a separate discussion page over on the project page. You're judging people harder because they're trying to be transparent, which isn't fair.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>3. The WMF never involved anyone, Doc James (a volunteer) involved the WMF — and that was only because they jumped on the idea when others didn't, not for any ulterior motive. These collaborations are what they do, and even if the WMF isn't perfect, they're not going to try and run these types of things behind the backs of anyone. They have the resources to run these projects, and we should be using them as best we can. There was never any question of them being arbiters of the project, or not allowing additional input — the fact was that there was no additional input beyond "that's a good idea — keep it up". Pretending that there was, or would have been is false or at the very best hypothetical and plagued by <a href="/wiki/Hindsight_bias" title="Hindsight bias">hindsight bias</a>. The WMF was involved, specifically these staffers, because they are/were community members with in-depth knowledge of how to engage the community. If you're only objecting to this because it was the WMF — then I'm happy to ignore that comment. If you're going to assume that anything done by any foundation is de facto bad there is no way to "Cover your ass", because the goalposts will always be moved. And this is apparent, because we are now ignoring the agreement, choosing to focus on the initial meeting. It's a fallacious argument, and there is nothing to stop us from going further if details from the meeting arise. We can just ask, "But who took contact?" and whether they reached out asking "We want to add sponsored content and advertising to Wikipedia, how do we do that?". These are false arguments and a <a href="/wiki/Moving_the_goalposts" title="Moving the goalposts">logical fallacy</a>.</dd> <dd>4. Having a page on meta means nothing, it only means that one was created by an editor. I've created plenty that have no relation to the WMF beyond the pretense of "maybe being vaguely relevant to the larger community in the future". Meta is not a place for the WMF, it is a place for any cross-project group — any group that works on more than just a single Wikipedia, or just on commons. And even to affiliate yourself with the WMF, all you really need to create a user-group that is officially recognized is to band 3 people together and draw up some bylawys and and purpose. You can even have a usergroup that focuses only on reviewing the decisions of other user groups. So to say that you can only focus on on-wiki decisions is wrong. Heck, most of the board meetings of WMF chapters are open to the public, and I've listened in on several through Skype/Phone that I've had very little to do with. You could even try to get yourself elected, it isn't that hard.</dd> <dd>5. You can interpret the information as a hanging indictment as much as you like — but that would be false. There isn't so much as a suggestion of anything real being done wrong here apart from a) non-perfect transparency (yes, you weren't in the room) and b) not removing the boilerplates at the end (yes, that should have been done). But this is the reality of the world — you couldn't have been there — and even if we had allowed for the opportunity, nothing is to indicate that anyone would have been there (the collaborative spot to help draw up video scripts was ignored.</dd> <dd>6.There is a need to meet people in real life, because the world at large doesn't work like Wikipedia. Wikipedia is a wonderful place, built upon wonderful rules that state how anyone can join up and discuss, and that there is no hierarchy. To assume that everyone understands this, or that everyone joining up is always possible, even when soliciting outside content donations — is just not feasible. Location, time-zones, work, etc., all get in the way. And sometimes you just wouldn't get into the discussion — You can't be in the room when I ask the radiology department about donating anonymized X-ray pictures, and you can't be there when I talk to agencies about releasing their content under CC-licences. In part because I would never even get to talk to them if I suggested I need to bring a Skype monitor to the meeting because I couldn't be trusted to do it on my own. This is in part because of physical constraints, in part because of human psychology that doesn't much align with Wikipedia's rules and norms; and in part because I have 10x more meetings trying to get collaboration, than I have actual collaborations (and I do quite little such work). Doc James and the Foundation does 100x more, and if they were to document every initial meeting in detail they wouldn't be doing anything but documenting.</dd> <dd>TL;DR — I sincerely hope we don't start trying to Cover-our-asses, because that would mean we feel it's more important to make sure we are perceived as do-gooders — than it is that we actually do good. Focus on the results, not on the minutiae of what could potentially be wrong with the process (at least when you have no indication that anything is wrong). <a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">Carl Fredrik</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:CFCF" title="User talk:CFCF"> talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-CFCF-2018-04-01T12:03:00.000Z-SandyGeorgia-2018-04-01T03:28:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">12:03, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Reflecting_on_the_above" data-mw-thread-id="h-Reflecting_on_the_above-Osmosis_concerns-2018-04-01T10:39:00.000Z">Reflecting on the above</h3></div> It's a shame we were led to believe this collaboration was with a part of Khan Academy that had forked into a seperate nonprofit. The thing that stands out for me here is the seeming lack of concern about the serious errors in these videos on the part of their most enthusiastic defenders. The whole area of collaborating with outside partners is fraught. WPMEDF is still finding its feet, and I'm sure there is a role for an entity like it in helping volunteers to develop partnerships with aligned nonprofits. I'd prefer to see it led by a team with a greater committment to accuracy, though. --<a href="/wiki/User:Anthonyhcole" title="User:Anthonyhcole">Anthonyhcole</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Anthonyhcole" title="User talk:Anthonyhcole">talk</a> · <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Anthonyhcole" title="Special:Contributions/Anthonyhcole">contribs</a> · <a href="/wiki/Special:EmailUser/Anthonyhcole" title="Special:EmailUser/Anthonyhcole">email</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Anthonyhcole-2018-04-01T10:39:00.000Z-Reflecting_on_the_above" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:39, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:Anthonyhcole" title="User:Anthonyhcole">Anthonyhcole</a> I respect your contributions to Wikipedia very much, and it was a shame that Osmosis was viewed in the lens of being a non-profit. I was not entirely aware of this myself, and it only came to my knowledge recently that they had considered a non-profit split-off group, but judged it unnecessary for the time being. It is now regrettable that they did not do this, but I'm not sure it would have made much difference. It would absolutely not have made any difference in what materials were donated.</dd> <dd>Where I find an error is in the belief that there was no commitment, or a faulty commitment to accuracy. Individual videos have been discussed, and parts of them deemed worthy of changing. However, this isn't really on the grounds of accuracy, and there have been very few comments regarding the accuracy of the videos. Our content disputes on Wikipedia are similarly often not about "this being wrong", but rather "this is better". What the issue has had more to do with is whether a) finding an aspect of the video to be improved means it should be taken offline until the fix/improvement is applied, and b) whether we should allow any medium that is difficult to edit on Wikipedia.</dd> <dd>For a) there have been dissenting opinions, which here reached the volume that the project entirely faltered, and for b) I think this discussion isn't worth having, because we already accept hard-to-edit content such as images and other videos. I know you've spent a lot of time looking to commission an image of a nerve that it to your liking. Having such an image uploaded would have meant it was very difficult to edit for most users — but that is not the same as to say it shouldn't be allowed. I would even wager that any good anatomical drawing is more difficult to change than these videos are.</dd> <dd>So, while I'm sad and disappointed about the way this project has died off and of certain aspects of the discussion, including my own conduct, I don't think anything speaks to a lack of adherence to accuracy. <a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">Carl Fredrik</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:CFCF" title="User talk:CFCF"> talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-CFCF-2018-04-01T12:46:00.000Z-Anthonyhcole-2018-04-01T10:39:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">12:46, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>It always bothers me when people put a sharp line between for-profit and non-profit groups. Non-profits are not inherently more effective, more moral, or more committed to the cause (whatever their stated cause is). We know, for example, that washing marketing through non-profits is a tactic that the dietary supplements industry uses to get around legal restrictions about marketing dietary supplements as effective cures. Critics of the Red Cross Blood Services in the US can tell you quite a lot about the non-protection provided by non-profit status; RCBS has been accused of both financial exploitation and insufficient attention to patient safety over the years. On the other side, your plumber and auto mechanic are for-profits, and you probably should trust them more than most non-profits. We consider <a href="/wiki/Nature_(journal)" title="Nature (journal)">Nature (journal)</a> to be an excellent source, and it's always been published by a for-profit organization, without even an attempt to pretend that a non-profit org or professional society was involved.</dd> <dd>The only difference between a non-profit and a for-profit is whether someone legally owns it (and therefore is entitled to take any leftover money home at the end of the year). Non-profit staff can earn millions of dollars a year (and some do), they care about revenue (in my experience, they care even more than a typical employee in the for-profit world, because the line between "get this revenue today" and "my next paycheck will happen" is usually very obvious to them), they can be careless and ineffective, and they can be motivated by something that we disagree with. For-profit staff can be awesome and ethical (and since most editors work in the for-profit world, I hope that's true of all of you). The case-by-case people and goals matter, but IMO the technical legal status is usually minor or irrelevant. <a href="/wiki/User:WhatamIdoing" title="User:WhatamIdoing">WhatamIdoing</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:WhatamIdoing" title="User talk:WhatamIdoing">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-WhatamIdoing-2018-04-01T19:57:00.000Z-CFCF-2018-04-01T12:46:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:57, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:WhatamIdoing" title="User:WhatamIdoing">WhatamIdoing</a>, quite agree. In additon there is the factor that a privately funded non-profit is accountable to nobody. As I note above with post at 07:56, 27 March 2018, they can believe and promote any agenda they want. A public charity, reliant on donations from the general public and perhaps some funding from government, is quite different, as is a firm selling to consumers who may choose to take their business elsewhere. Wikipedia is fundamentally volunteer driven and there is a safety-in-numbers where no one person's beliefs, opinions or "alternative facts" can rise much above the crowd. With these videos we had the opposite, where they were developed by employees and one firm was able to totally dominate the presentation-of-facts in several hundred of our medical articles.

Clayoquot and I brought up the video errors four months ago and were brushed off and the errors were called "minor", which is not the case at all. Only Doc James even responded, no one else (though not even he responded to the second request). Were it not for Colin opening a discussion on Jimbo's page this seriously flawed video would still be included at the Breastfeeding article. So of course I am grateful but on the other hand the problem remains that one editor, Doc James, was able to direct the decisions related to the information included in our breastfeeding article. I am concerned that too much wikipedia influence has been bestowed on some editors while others are seen as not really knowledgeable enough to dispute the decisions of those "on high". <a href="/wiki/User:Gandydancer" title="User:Gandydancer">Gandydancer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Gandydancer" title="User talk:Gandydancer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Gandydancer-2018-04-01T21:18:00.000Z-CFCF-2018-04-01T20:53:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:18, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I had wished there were many more focused medical editors on Wikipedia who could counterweigh the influence of the editors we do have, who have to patrol an often unreasonably large corpus of articles, but we're having a real problem attracting more people with in-depth knowledge — and that is a shame. What I however would like to point out is that the discussions are often seen by far more people than actually do comment, and I often forego commenting when I see others who seem to be handling a situation well.</dd> <dd>I can't speak to that specific instance, but often consensus can be reached with the minority view being judged to be the correct one. James nearly always backs his arguments up very well, and uses high quality sources and good reasoning. I don't think it was de facto wrong that the video remained in the article until recently, if he judged the issues to be minor. I happen to like the video and feel it is informative. When WikiProject Medicine was accused of using the "MEDRS bludgeon" on the RfC page I expressed something that may be relevant here: "We also have a large number of editors that are very knowledgeable in their fields, and sometimes coming across them and being proven wrong can feel like a "MEDRS bludgeon", but that doesn't mean it's [bad conduct]."</dd> <dd>I can also point out that nearly all edits I've made to the Breastfeeding article were reverted very quickly, and not by James. I also found it very difficult to edit that article in the face of a single editor. <a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">Carl Fredrik</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:CFCF" title="User talk:CFCF"> talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-CFCF-2018-04-01T22:06:00.000Z-Gandydancer-2018-04-01T21:18:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:06, 1 April 2018 (UTC)</a></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> Sometimes I see a photo on Flickr that would be a nice addition to Wikipedia, and I ask the photographer if they could flip the switches to release it under a Wikipedia-compatible license so that I can add it to an article. Sometimes they say yes, and I say thank you and send them a link to the article so they can see their work on Wikipedia. And then we never talk again, unless I see something else from them that I like and re-initiate the cycle by asking for it. Work has been donated and the creator has been acknowledged and thanked. The End. What happened here seems to have been different. Instead of arranging for a donation and saying thank you, a new and enduring thingy called a “partnership” was arranged. The terms of the partnership were never written down, but it’s clear from the past few days of discussion that people at the WikiProject Med valued it highly. For them, the partnership itself had a value that was distinct from the value of the content Osmosis had already donated. As humans, when we value a partnership, we try to protect it. The above context may have some bearing on some events from last November that I found extremely odd at the time. I removed Osmosis’s video from the Breastfeeding article. I pointed out that it contained factual errors including one that, if the watcher believed it, could lead to growth problems, anemia, and feeding problems in babies. Nobody argued with my assertion that this was an error, or questioned whether babies might be harmed by it. However, Doc James said, “The issues you have raised are minor. Adjustments can be made,” and put the content back into Wikipedia knowing that it was erroneous and harmful to babies. It is painful to write that last sentence, but we need to ask ourselves what would make a good editor do this kind of thing. Why did this freakishly bad edit happen? Here’s a hypothesis: Doc James wanted to protect the partnership. He knew that what Osmosis wanted was video views. He knew that Osmosis lost some revenue streams when it released content under an <strike>NC-licence</strike> CC-BY-SA license, and that it expected other revenue streams would get a boost as a result of having the content viewed on Wikipedia. Doc James knew all this and didn’t want Osmosis to be unhappy, so he didn’t allow error-ridden content to be even temporarily removed while the errors were being fixed . Now of course, I don’t know what exactly went on in Doc James’s head. But it is certainly plausible that his sense of duty to Osmosis’s business has affected his judgement as a Wikipedia editor. Doc James does what he believes is good for Wikipedia. And he was convinced that protecting the partnership would be good for Wikipedia, so it is not hard to see why the partnership was protected to such an extent that Osmosis thought it was Wikipedia's official supplier of medical videos. I’m much less inclined to AGF when it comes to Osmosis’s behaviour. They could have hired specialists to make sure the information in their scripts was correct, but in at least a few cases they were too cheap or rushed to do so. The level of naivete I am seeing with respect to Osmosis’s finances is stunning. Carl said, "They even went so far as to look into a non-profit simply in order to donate videos, but again, thought this less important than actually donating materials.” The point of setting up a non-profit is not to have the non-profit donate things that the company owns. The point is to receive donations with legally enforceable assurance to the donor that the donation will not be used to line the pockets of corporate investors. Promising to set up a non-profit arm and then not doing so, while asking for and receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars in grant money, should raise alarm bells awfully loud. <a href="/wiki/User:Clayoquot" title="User:Clayoquot">Clayoquot</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Clayoquot" title="User talk:Clayoquot">talk</a> | <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Clayoquot" title="Special:Contributions/Clayoquot">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Clayoquot-2018-04-02T04:58:00.000Z-Reflecting_on_the_above" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">04:58, 2 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>Linking with this comment of <a href="/wiki/User:Clayoquot" title="User:Clayoquot">Clayoquot</a>: The errors in the celiac disease video, a dangerously outdated, simplistic and inaccurate information, which speaks of CD as if it were just a simple digestive disease, ignoring that CD is a chronic autoimmune systemic disease, suppose to condemn approximately 80-85% of celiacs, both adults and children, to remain unrecognized, undiagnosed and exposed to developing very serious health complications, among which are various types of cancer (both of the digestive system -with an increased risk of 60%- and other organs), many cardiovascular diseases, neurological and psychiatric disorders, other autoimmune diseases, and osteoporosis,<a href="#cite_note-HanChen2015-1">[1]</a><a href="#cite_note-HadjivassiliouDuker2014-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-CiaccioLewis2017-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hourigan_2006-4">[4]</a><a href="#cite_note-Cic2015-5">[5]</a><a href="#cite_note-GreenJabri2003-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-pmid25702766-7">[7]</a> and also refractory celiac disease (which no longer responds to the gluten-free diet)<a href="#cite_note-Woodward2016-8">[8]</a> and in rare cases (mainly in children) the so-called "celiac crisis", a sudden onset life-threatening syndrome.<a href="#cite_note-FasanoCatassi2012-9">[9]</a><a href="#cite_note-de_AlmeidaMenezesCabral2017-10">[10]</a> The video about IBS starts talking about inflammatory bowel disease like the ones with similar symptoms and forgets to talk about celiac disease, which by far has a higher prevalence and which is the diagnosis that most celiac patients receive during years or their whole life, so it brings us to the same point of danger (in addition to other inaccuracies and forgetting to mention the NCGS).

This is no different from your Flickr contact saying: "Have you seen this too? Do you want me to release it as well? It'd be really cool to see people using this on WP."</li> <li>The terms were written down, in the memoranda of understanding — the same agreement that was shunned and called into question</li> <li>If I recall that was down to a single word choice, whether something was likely or possible. I can only in the strongest sense possible denounce your theory that "babies where coming into harm". I in fact have several times, being shunned by others on that article, argued that breastfeeding is far less important than we make it out to be — when there is access to clean water. I have high quality sources, which have repeatedly been ignored — but for this fact I actually thought the video went too far in what it expressed, and would have liked it to give this less weight, not more. There is no possibility whatsoever that the video, which would primarily be viewed in countries with access to clean running water — has damaged or harmed a single child.</li> <li>There was no bad edit. Some part of what you say on motivation is true, but more importantly Doc James made the edit because he truly thought the issue minor and inconsequential. I disagree that there was an issue at all, and in fact would have liked the opposite of what you argued for. And of course he wanted to protect the partnership — if he saw that the videos were doing good — any actions to make sure more were made are entirely in line with Wikipedia's goals. This is not an ulterior motive. As long as he believed the issue truly was so minor as to be inconsequential — he did not break from Wikipedia's policies or guidelines in reinstating it. He knew that Osmosis wanted their videos to be useful. This is exactly the same thing I do when I try to reason with an editor I find has the wrong idea about something. I value their future potential contribution more than I value their current erroneous reasoning. I try to correct them, and try to make them understand why things should be a certain way. This is the way we all should be acting, and you'd be amazed at how often I gloss over minor issues because I find it would be worse to launch a full out attack on an editor. And this is where I agree there are issues, which I strongly contest here.</li> <li>James had no sense of duty towards Osmosis's business — rather he had a sense of duty towards Wikipedia that included not alienating a well-intentioned contributor who's only ever error was to include a 2 second licence plate at the end of videos. We're making a mountain out of a mole-hill, and these watermarks would never have garnered this backlash pretty much anywhere else — and I think much of the backlash is completely irrational. They have, and we have all concluded that these could just be removed. It is entirely up to us to conclude that they should be removed, but we should never assume that it was obvious for anyone that they should have been disallowed in the first place. Nowhere else would this have been obvious, and Wikipedia is not alone in the world. We might do things our way, but we should at least have some understanding that it isn't immediately obvious, and should not lambast people for not understanding it immediately. This screams of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:DONTBITETHENEWBIE&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Wikipedia:DONTBITETHENEWBIE (page does not exist)">WP:DONTBITETHENEWBIE</a>, even if no one cares to call them that, just because they are an organization trying to do good, rather than a bumbling individual.</li> <li>I find the immidiate assumption that there was bad faith a problem. They did hire specialists, and the videos all have, on the same boilerplate we've decided should be removed — a short section that says "reviewed by so and so MD". While this also isn't what we normally do on Wikipedia — it completely invalidates your argument. The videos were also produced with input, or at least the opportunity of input from the community. I also disagree regarding your assessment of non-profits, with my take falling much closer to <a href="/wiki/User:WhatamIdoing" title="User:WhatamIdoing">WhatamIdoing</a>'s. It is true that there is a legally enforceable assurance to the donor that the donation will not be used to line the pockets of corporate investors — but I fail to see how it is any better when there can be a fully legally permissible incentive to line the pockets of highly paid executives within the non-profit. What you're also ignoring is that there was never ever any question of any solicitation of donations, or of money changing hands. If such a large grant had passed from the WMF to Osmosis you can trust that there would have been much quality control from the WMF to ensure that they were getting what they had bargained for. It is possibly here that creating a non-profit would have been necessary, but when we're just talking about just donating materials — the stakes are lower. It seems to me that we are assuming that the grant would have gone through without any control of the funds, without contemplating that it could probably not ever have gone through without a non-profit being created.</li></ol> <dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:CFCF" class="mw-redirect" title="User:CFCF">Carl Fredrik</a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:CFCF" title="User talk:CFCF"> talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-CFCF-2018-04-02T07:01:00.000Z-Reflecting_on_the_above" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:01, 2 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Regarding point 5, "not alienating a well-intentioned contributor who's only ever error was to include a 2 second licence plate at the end of videos." the reason many people were opposed to these videos is that there were a lot of errors in them that weren't easily correctable.

We don't know how many other errors there may be in the videos, because there was no process whatsoever for vetting them with topic experts. Also, CFCF, when you call the problems "trivial", that demeans a core policy of Wikipedia (NPOV). I spent two years developing the <a href="/wiki/Tourette_syndrome" title="Tourette syndrome">Tourette syndrome</a> article, and twelve years keeping the POV words "suffer from" out of the tic disorder suite, per DSM-IV-TR. To have a video stuck in the lead of a Featured article that undoes all of my attempts at NPOV does not feel "trivial". It would also have been good practice to have the video makers be aware of our guidelines (that is, not only MEDRS, but also MEDMOS): Avoid saying that people "suffer" from or are "victims" of a chronic illness or symptom, which may imply helplessness: identifiers like survivor, affected person or individual with are alternate wordings.<div class="paragraphbreak" style="margin-top:0.5em"></div> It's also troubling, Carl, that you continue to assert that the errors were disputed.

If that's the production facilities one needs to engineer such videos, i.e. slide-show software and a computer with a microphone, a set of rules does not seem too difficult. Proposing a rule set just out of my head... (proposal:) A slide-show video can only be used in en.Wikipedia under following conditions: <ol><li>The native file format of the slide-show software is a format that can be uploaded to Commons (if Commons does not accept e.g. OOo Impress files nor anything else in that vein we're already end of the road until that is sorted; if some such file format is possible, continue with next steps of the proposal:)</li> <li>Text should exclusively be typed, and use a non-proprietary font (the handwritten scanned slide backdrops of the Osmosis videos would no longer be allowed). The guidance to comply to is <a href="/wiki/MOS:TEXTASIMAGES" class="mw-redirect" title="MOS:TEXTASIMAGES">MOS:TEXTASIMAGES</a>.</li> <li>Images used in the slides should be available at Commons, with a suitable license making it possible to use them in this way (basic open source proceedings).</li> <li>Slides should be uploaded to Commons in the native *editable* slide-show file format. The description on the media page should indicate which images (if any) were used for the slide, that is: they should be listed with their Commons file name.</li> <li>Voice-over recordings should be available in an open audio file format, and uploaded at Commons; the voice-over recordings should be available for every separate slide; Voice-over and related slide should have no discrepancies: the simple rule should be that the text is read aloud as it appears in the slide, e.g. if the text of the slide says something is 32% then the voice-over should not read that as "around thirty percent" – background noises, and certainly ambient music should of course be avoided in the recordings</li> <li>Video formats of slide-shows (one or more slides, with a synchronised voice-over) have a description page that links to all involved files, uploaded separately in Commons.</li></ol> All of this should make it easy to rework a slide, re-record its voice-over (don't care whether that's a different voice from the next or previous slide), after which a potentially longer video can be reconstituted, & uploaded to Commons (presumably under the same name as the previous one). On content, a video can only be used in en.Wikipedia if it complies to Wikipedia's guidance on the matter of course: not a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:POV_FORK" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:POV FORK">WP:POV FORK</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiable" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Verifiable">WP:Verifiable</a>, etc. Possibly the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a> part can be satisfied like for images: if its verifiable in the article where the video appears, then the video should not have a separate reference: this entails that if the article content changes and is no longer compatible with the video content that then the video should be removed on sight until the discrepancy is fixed. Probably that is no more than a rough first approach, needing still much in the sense of fine-tuning, but I suppose this, or something very similar to it, could work. Also, this is not just something for medical videos, so this should get a broader consensus than the local one here at MED. For clarity, this does not exclude other types of videos not based on slide-show software, but for text-based videos this might provide a MO. --<a href="/wiki/User:Francis_Schonken" title="User:Francis Schonken">Francis Schonken</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Francis_Schonken" title="User talk:Francis Schonken">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Francis_Schonken-2018-04-03T15:17:00.000Z-Parameters_for_videos" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:17, 3 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I don't honestly think there is any point in WP:MED determining the parameters for videos.

I expressed myself poorly when I said "there was nothing wrong with the project", that is simply not true. To rephrase: I believe the project operated under an <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:IMPLICIT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:IMPLICIT">implicit consensus</a> and that the understanding was it only meant to augment Wikipedia, and that all was done in good faith. I am willing to concede that there were a number of problems with both minor and major issues in the videos. Of the handful I saw prior to this discussion, I found none to which I objected, and I did not see any immediate errors in any videos. I found the scripts to correspond and build well upon the ledes and/or contents of articles. Essentially, I viewed the videos as alternative ledes, albeit with a slightly different tone. Most of the issues raised were in my view relatively minor — including some that have by others been called major. What I see as the resounding error is how a lack of closed captions and transcripts has made it difficult to verify that the scripts have adhered to articles. Some of the discrepancies that have been pointed out throughout this discussion are trivial, but I understand that in the light of perceived deviation from <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a> — these too have been interpreted as very problematic. I must admit that I never really thought of this as an issue — but see now that it can be seen as an unreasonable burden to watch a slow-paced, several minutes long video in order to compare it with the article body. That is at the very least true, when we account for how this would be a many hours long task, simply in order to transcribe all the videos properly before starting to compare them. I also realize that this flies in the face of an otherwise insistence of reliably sourced statements in article ledes — something which I still strongly support in medicine as most statements <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Lead_section#Citations" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section">can and will be questioned</a>. It is unreasonable to expect that texts such as these can be thoroughly reviewed in a few minutes, and by that I mean: double checking so that each source verifies the claims it is used to support. The mere act of having visible sources that support facts as potentially verifiable is very important — however, videos without released and sourced scripts fail this on multiple levels. On several occasions accurate statements have been questioned (as is entirely in order) — and found <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_underkill#Citation_placement" title="Wikipedia:Citation underkill">lacking obvious supporting refences</a> despite these being present or implied in articles. This should never have occurred, and I have in a wish to include videos deviated from my own recommended best practice. Originally, I assumed all videos be captioned and released with transcripts, as the project started off by inviting the community to discuss and edit scripts. The step to stop posting scripts for community review, once it was deemed too few members involved themselves with the review (often none commenting) was a major mistake. I believe in fact that this was the single action that did this project in. To assume that the lack of interest alone meant that this essential step of vetting could be skipped was dire. It is perhaps following this, and my original enthusiasm that the medium influenced how I (and others?) later interpreted <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BLUESKY" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BLUESKY">WP:BLUESKY</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:LEDE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:LEDE">WP:LEDE</a> in a way that was inconsistent with my attitude towards sourcing on Wikipedia. I now understand that my insistence that the videos correspond to ledes, makes this all the more pertinent. With other video materials (or images) we have not had the same requirements for <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a>. This in turn has caused me to view the videos in a contradictory fashion: as both alternate ledes, and as supplementary material with different <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a> requirements. I went back to review some of the videos today, and I am ashamed to admit that I have engaged in motivated reasoning to promote the inclusion of the videos. I strongly object to the essay <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_is_not_YouTube" title="Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not YouTube">Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not YouTube</a>, as it ignores much research showing how messages conveyed through multiple different formats tend to offer the both best sustained and immediate learning. Having videos on Wikipedia is I believe an important evolutionary step for us — but my insistence on including these particular videos at every cost was in poor judgement. I found myself very alone at times in this debate, and I believe that others supporting videos on Wikipedia did so as well. The onslaught has been massive, which prompted me to attempt to respond to more queries and accusations than I have been truly able to. I have therefor taken shortcuts, made assumptions and responded inaccurately at times. I felt a strong need to clear myself of accusations of conflict of interest, which I still consider patently false. The same is true for the idea that narrated videos are bad for Wikipedia, which I strongly object to. I realize that aspects of my conduct have not helped this situation, and that I have also exhibited what is known as the <a href="/wiki/Backfire_effect" class="mw-redirect" title="Backfire effect">backfire effect</a>. To have my motives questioned has caused me to double down on my initial position, without considering other potential issues. If nothing else I hope that this can be a point of learning for other Wikipedians. A large influencing factor has been how I perceived the initial discussion — as a massive wall of text that started on Jimbo's talk-page and came here with ready-formed notions of the project’s intent and a large helping of assumed bad faith towards those who supported it. This may not be true, but with the immediate insistance to remove several years worth of work — this is how it was perceived. The additional antipathy advocated by some towards any continued collaboration, including to fix the videos — made me want to defend the project more strongly. To lose a collaboration that has run for years, which I believe could have benefited Wikipedia much in the future is regrettable, and I acted to preserve it. Retaining a positive relationship with collaborators that know little of Wikipedia's process was nigh on impossible — and some of my most desperate attempts to salvage what remained reflect that. I am neither proud of my actions or the result as a whole. It has been expressed that this WikiProject is insular and does not welcome outside views. This I perceive has in part been due to the antagonism expressed towards some of our fundamental principles. I find that this WikiProject is not so much insular as very welcoming to those willing to contribute, but essentially ignored by the broader community — that is until some issue is found that is objected to, when these types of major debates ensue. Many of our principles, such as MEDRS are simply extensions of broader community norms, such as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:RS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:RS">WP:RS</a> — which already stipulate that content likely to be questioned should adhere to stricter standards. MEDRS acknowledges that medical content is very likely to be questioned and that finding the most appropriate medical sources is difficult for the uninitiated. This text took me quite a while to write, I may go back and clarify aspects.

I hope this can be taken as the starting point for a discussion on the merits of videos rather than what was wrong with specific cases (better to keep that to individual talk pages).

Just it appears common sense. To some degree a single image can often be verified. You can look at the image on Commons, its category, and confirm that is indeed a photo of Big Ben, or look at other photos of Big Ben and agree they are the same. So perhaps many images don't fall into the "challenged or likely to be challenged". But when they do, an inline citation can be put into the caption or file description page (e.g. <a href="/wiki/File:Ketogenic_diets_pie_MCT.svg" title="File:Ketogenic diets pie MCT.svg">File:Ketogenic diets pie MCT.svg</a>). For the videos at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTYOUTUBE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTYOUTUBE">WP:NOTYOUTUBE</a> they don't make any claims other than to be what they are: a video of a plasma lamp glowing, etc. Editors disputing that could remove that single image. I don't think the script solves the problem and begs the question about what the video is actually adding and whether a narrated lecture is in any way appropriate for WP. Guys, this is not a problem for WP:MED to discuss and resolve. You need to take this to the whole community, and also hand it off to someone who didn't edit war to protect a $2million investment by his partners.

The description page for a video has plenty of room for sources and I can see no reason why we should not expect the same standards of RS/MEDRS for those. If you look at <a href="/wiki/File:Abscesses_1.webm" title="File:Abscesses 1.webm">File:Abscesses 1.webm</a>, you can see an example. if you look at <a href="/wiki/File:Achondroplasia_1.webm" title="File:Achondroplasia 1.webm">File:Achondroplasia 1.webm</a> and compare it with <a href="/wiki/File:Achondroplasia.webm" title="File:Achondroplasia.webm">File:Achondroplasia.webm</a>, you'll see that I cleaned up the references a little (and excised "Wikipedia - Various pages" for obvious reasons). That wasn't too hard. If the source does not support the video, or more sources are required, we have perfectly good maintenance templates to flag that up.

Capacity for inline referencing is absolutely fundamental to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a>. By the way, I have re-added "Wikipedia - Various sources" to <a href="/wiki/File:Achondroplasia_1.webm" title="File:Achondroplasia 1.webm">File:Achondroplasia 1.webm</a> in order to preserve transparency to readers about what sources the author used (<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SAYWHEREYOUREADIT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SAYWHEREYOUREADIT">WP:SAYWHEREYOUREADIT</a>). <a href="/wiki/User:Clayoquot" title="User:Clayoquot">Clayoquot</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Clayoquot" title="User talk:Clayoquot">talk</a> | <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Clayoquot" title="Special:Contributions/Clayoquot">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-Clayoquot-2018-04-04T17:08:00.000Z-RexxS-2018-04-04T16:35:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:08, 4 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>Any maintenance templates would need to be added where the video is used, e.g. in a Wikipedia article, not on Commons.

It's neither a reliable source, nor has it any value in informing the reader where to look among our 5,000,000+ articles for a source.

The first category of concerns – mostly what is being discussed immediately above – go to our educational and informational mission as an open encyclopedia. <ul><li>Long-form video presents unique challenges with respect to editability. For anyone without access to the original narrator, for instance, correcting something as a small as a single word of narration often means re-recording the entire voice-over. Videos aren't susceptible to the same easy discussion and revision that text is; we're much closer to a binary take-it-or-leave-it situation.</li> <li>Long-form video presents particular challenges with respect to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a> and sourcing. Do we require inline notes at the bottom of the screen? Endnotes at the end of the video? Footnoted scripts? Throw up our hands in despair?</li> <li>Long-form video often has accessibility issues, unless great care is taken to ensure consistent and complete captioning.</li> <li>For long-form video summaries, how do we decide which articles get them, and who decides if they stay or go, and where do they appear in the article? Who signs off on the script and storyboard?</li> <li>Is it appropriate or viable to present many of our topics in a long-form video format at all?</li></ul> Those are difficult enough, certainly. I don't pretend to have exhaustively summarized them here, either. In any case, there are two other categories of sometimes-uncomfortable questions and concerns that we shouldn't lose track of when dealing with collaborations in general, rather than videos specifically. These thoughts have been bubbling in my head since the Osmosis issue first gained wide visibility, and they're thoughts that should be on hand from the outset when contemplating content collaborations going forward. So... The second category of issues relates to how information about collaborations like this one should be discussed, communicated to the community, and monitored, and how the parameters of such projects should be established and modified. <ul><li>For this collaboration, on-wiki notifications seem to have been confined primarily to WP:MED's talk page. <a href="/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Osmosis" title="Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine/Osmosis">Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Osmosis</a> and <a href="/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:Osmosis" title="Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:Osmosis">Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:Osmosis</a> are both very short lists. Both of those pages were little-watched and infrequently-updated.</li> <li>The scale and scope of the project wasn't clearly set in advance, and there wasn't a widely-publicized invitation to review the collaboration after any milestones (say, after the first 10 videos). There wasn't an announcement at the outset or in the interim that "We're going to put 300+ videos up". Again, nothing made it to WP:CENT or the Village Pump or any widely-watched "general interest" policy pages.</li> <li>Relatedly, differences in degree can eventually become differences in kind—to borrow the old saw, "Quantity has a quality all its own." Something that might have been tolerated as a stretch of Wikipedia's convention if deployed on a small scale or as an isolated video or two takes on a different character when it becomes a campaign across hundreds of articles.</li> <li>Where contributed content was added to Wikipedia articles, it was done without meaningful edit summaries. (The one-word summary "(added)" got a lot of use; sometimes there was no edit summary at all.) We probably could have had this discussion much earlier and much less acrimoniously if something positive like "(New summary video from Osmosis collaboration. Help out at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Osmosis" title="Wikipedia:Osmosis">WP:Osmosis</a>!)" were used, or if a talk page template had been added, or other active recruitment steps had been taken.</li> <li>There is a difference between what I would call 'passive' and 'active' transparency. Passive transparency is what you get when a project answers questions when asked; active transparency happens when a project makes an effort to draw the community's attention to what they're doing. This collaboration had some of the former and very little of the latter. CFCF has made repeated reference to the idea of "implicit consensus"; the problem with passive transparency is that "nobody outside a narrow circle of insiders really grasped the scale and nature of what was happening" gets mistaken for consensus, and those insiders feel badly abused when the dam breaks.</li> <li>The collaboration seems to have been organized, managed, and driven by representatives of the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) and the Wikimedia WikiProject Med Foundation (WPMEDF), rather than by anyone wearing a plain old English Wikipedia hat. Perhaps there should be more emphasis on consultation with the actual encyclopedia projects.</li> <li>It's possible that different standards should apply (perhaps I should say different amounts of caution are required?) when considering collaborations with for-profit companies versus non-profits versus advocacy organizations versus other NGOs versus government agencies. More on this in the third category section.</li></ul> The third category relates to a certain...naiveté...about the nature of marketing and the potential commercial value of some collaborations. <ul><li>Wikipedia and Wikipedians have always expressed an intense and near-universal distaste for advertising on the project. While we acknowledge the need to give credit to our contributors (and indeed get quite upset when contributors aren't properly acknowledged) we also have very tightly regulated the ways in which that credit is given. Text edits get credit in the article history, not inline. Image contributors receive credit on the description pages, not in the article. We regularly trim out external links to video and other content when we feel that the balance between informational value and promotion (of the external site) leans too far towards marketing. We reject images which are watermarked. Collaborations need to bear these sensitivities in mind.</li> <li>In this particular instance, Osmosis was giving away what amounted to 'free samples' of their commercial product: a subscription service supplying educational videos aimed at medical students. Those samples were placed prominently in relevant Wikipedia articles, with Osmosis branding appearing at the beginning and end of each video, and links to Osmosis social media (YouTube, Facebook, Twitter) at the end. There does not appear to have been a discussion about the nature of acknowledgement given in these videos, and how or why that should differ from other inline media appearing in Wikipedia articles.</li> <li>There seems to have been an agreement or understanding that this branded content would be placed in prominent, privileged positions within Wikipedia articles (infoboxes or the first section of the article body), and Wikipedia's Osmosis project members appear to have been willing to edit war to keep them there. We should again not fail to appreciate the commercial value of that position and protection.</li> <li>It appears that Osmosis was...not entirely forthright about its plans to divorce its "open" operations from its business operations. And even if they had created a separate "open" foundation, it's questionable whether or not the distinction would have been anything more than cosmetic. Linking prominently to "open.osmosis.org" (which has a prominent ad for Osmosis' commercial product when you scroll down the page) and pretending that doesn't have promotional value for "osmosis.org" is flimsy stuff.</li> <li>There have been comments made to the effect that No one will want to collaborate with us anymore because we just threw out all of Osmosis' good faith effort on a whim. Frankly, Osmosis got something like two years of prominent marketing placement on hundreds of Wikipedia articles, and two years of claiming a formal relationship with Wikipedia in their marketing and promotional materials. Whatever it cost them to produce their videos was a bargain compared to the value of the product placement that they got here. Any reduction in new collaborations won't be because Osmosis was treated poorly—it will be because we're unlikely to give away the store so willingly in the future.</li></ul> Okay, that's what I've got. I'm not saying we need to resolve these questions (or even necessarily have a discussion about them) right now, but I wanted to make sure that I got them out there so that they would be available for the next collaboration. <a href="/wiki/User:TenOfAllTrades" title="User:TenOfAllTrades">TenOfAllTrades</a>(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:TenOfAllTrades" title="User talk:TenOfAllTrades">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine/Archive_110#c-TenOfAllTrades-2018-04-05T14:05:00.000Z-The_other_issues" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:05, 5 April 2018 (UTC)</a> <dl><dd>I think this is an exercise in <a href="/wiki/Orogenesis" class="mw-redirect" title="Orogenesis">orogenesis</a>. The policies and guidelines that apply to all our content apply. No special considerations should be applicable. If a video is licensed appropriately and in an acceptable format it may be considered. The content must be verifiable, and appropriate for the article. It may not be unduly biased or constitute advertising. It must be acceptably accessible and follow relevant MoS closely enough to be appropriate for the article. If it meets all the criteria for inclusion, it may be included. If someone challenges it, they must be specific enough to allow verification of the claimed problem. If the problem is found to be important enough, a local consensus to delete would be sufficient. While disputed a boldly added video must remain reverted until discussion is over. Even if there is only a small amount of the content that is sufficiently unsuitable, the whole thing must go until it has been fixed, and may not be reinstated without local consensus. Fixing the problems may be a lot of work, even impossible, but that is how it goes. This may make substantial videos very difficult to include in medical articles. So it goes. It may be better to split them up into short videos. We find out by experience. I may have missed a few details, but it is really a molehill, not a mountain. It is up to the creators of videos to ensure they are suitable if they want them to be used. We do not guarantee that any content will always be acceptable.
