wikiproject Medicine/Dermatology Task Force

Articles within the scope of the dermatology task force are the dermatology and related subspecialty articles, and those pertaining to:

• the history of dermatology;
• related periodicals;
• dermatologists with notable contributions to the field;
• the integumentary system structure and function;
• conditions of or affecting the human integumentary system; and
• dermatologic terminology, signs, pharmacology, procedures, and surgery.

The overall goal of the dermatology task force is to make Wikipedia the most comprehensive dermatologic resource. Specific goals of this task force are to:

• maintain the dermatology article;
• maintain an organized categorization of dermatology-related articles;
• maintain a listing of all known conditions of or affecting the human integumentary system;
• maintain the cutaneous conditions article;
• maintain a listing of all dermatologists with notable contributions to the field;
• create new articles on topics within the scope that are not yet covered by Wikipedia;
• increase the number of high-quality dermatology-related images;
• ensure that dermatologic content is thoroughly and properly referenced; and
• improve the Spanish Wikipedia dermatology-related Wikipedia articles (see es:Piel humana (human skin) for a starting reference point).
