Expertscolumn's New Writing Guideline

It is nothing so serious and there is no mention of any poetry here. If we tend to write articles in medicine, research etc.., we should give proper facts and figures and not write on imaginary guesses. That is all.

Hey friend, Now this is something serious. I have not had a look at EC today but this new guideline is going to pose some problems. From what I read I understand that they now want us to cite sources to back up any facts we provide in our articles. It is going to take us some extra work to do that. I have never written poetry on EC as I do not have skills for that. But my columns are generally those that express my thoughts. Now this is going to be extremely stressful if I have to go over each article and see which one has figures provided so that I can provide citations.

Hi Phoenix, there is nothing to worry about, unless you are going to write about different medical fact. if you write an article about heart disease affecting a certain number of people every year, make sure you get the figure right, and quote the source. For example, you can write that you read about this in the local newspaper, and you have to put the date, and the name of the journalist, so that readers know that you are reporting a fact.

it means that we must be careful when we write the article related medicine, legal opinions..we must include the statement from the expert or our article is deleted

Nothing to worry in this term, if you write articles about medical facts or legal related things or some real facts you must submit the proof that you are right, it is because some persons will give their own opinion, some times it is against to the real thing. If you submit your proof or source thing, EC admin will get the reality in your article and publish it there forever, if your article is against the real fact, it will be removed

Hi. From what I understand, that simply means that you have add references or sources if you write about academic topics like medicine, law and other topics with factual data. Basically, they just want you to cite the sources. LOL. happy mylotting. Hope to seeing more of you in mylot.
