    Writing a Wikipedia Article on Cultural Competence in Health Care

    No full text
    This article describes how librarians created a Wikipedia article on cultural competence in health care to support the medical school’s curriculum. Wikipedia, often considered not as reliable as scholarly articles, continues to be popular. Rutgers librarians conducted a Wikipedia project to improve its content to benefit students. The importance of cultural competency in health care is widely recognized due to increasingly diverse patient populations. Medical schools integrate cultural competency in curricula to train students to be culturally competent. Therefore, this topic was chosen for the Wikipedia Project. It is hoped that health sciences librarians and educators will benefit from their experience

Diagnosis. The taxon paolongkoui ssp. nov. can be distinguished from other subspecies of C. mushaellus by the following features: 1) prominent dark brown apical area is present in male paolongkoui (Fig. 1) but not in the other subspecies (Fig. 3, 5); 2) brachium (falx) of paolongkoui with length of distal spine is slender and shorter than basal portion of brachum (Fig. 17), whereas that of the nominotypical subspecies is elongate, longer than basal portion of brachim (Fig. 18); that of continental subspecies is stout and short (Fig. 19); 3) ampulla of valva is bent downwards in paolongkoui (Fig. 20), in contrast to curved downwars in the nominotypical subspecies (Fig. 21) and straight in continental subspecies (Fig. 22); 4) ventral lobes of sclerite surrounding ostium bursae forming rounded extension in paolongkoui (Fig. 26), whereas there is no extention in other subspecies (Figs. 27–28); 5) sclerotized portion of ductus bursae is shorter than width of sclerite around ostium bursae in paolongkoui (Fig. 26), whereas it is longer than the sclerite in other subspecies (Fig. 27–28). Hostplant. Lithocarpus litseifolius (Fagaceae). Distribution. Known from montane zone of Hainan approximately 1000– 1500m in elevation. The distributional range of C. muchaellus including this new subspecies is given in Fig. 29. Phenology. Univoltine. Adults are on wing from April to May. Overwintering as egg near bases of dormant buds on the hostplant. Etymology. The subspecific name is derived from Paolongkou, a mythological figure who is believed to give birth of the Li people indigenous to Hainan Island according to some legendary stories.Published as part of Hsu, Yu-Feng, Lo, Yik-Fui Philip & Lin, Rung-Juen, 2021, On a New Insular Subspecies of Chrysozephyrus mushaellus (Matsumura) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) Discovered from Hainan, pp. 113-122 in Zootaxa 4908 (1) on pages 115-118, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4908.1.7, http://zenodo.org/record/443586

    Biography of Lin Wen Zhong Gong has another way to call, that is Judge Lin. The leading character is Lin Ze-Xu. This book is based on functionary experience of Lin Ze-Xu, with the captivating plots of court case, helping by highly skilled military attach\uc3\ua9s and chivalrous knights, and the history facts of Opium War. It makes Lin Ze-Xu\ue2s Confucian temperament and tragic mood more, also contrasts with author\ue2s sorrow and furiousness for the politics at the time. History, court case, martial arts\ue2\ua6\ue2\ua6etc. are essence of this book and it broadens the way of this writing style. The topic of the thesis is \ue2An Analysis of Judge Lin\ue2. The following thesis will be divided into six different chapters. The introduction is Chapter one of the thesis, which is including researching motive and purpose, literature review of predecessors, researching version by existing information, raising questions, choosing research methods and arranging chapters. In chapter Two, I discuss the study of characters of Lin Ze-Xu, also makes a deep analysis of author\u27s purpose of writing him. In chapter Three, I analyze supporting actors and actress. Meanwhile, I illustrate author\u27s purpose of writing supporting actress because the author had different manner to describe supporting actress. Moving to the Chapter Four, I mainly focus on the plots of Judge Lin, and organize cases of Lin Ze-Xu and his subordinates to understand features of cases. In Chapter Five, I represent the causes of Opium War. China and England had difference of opinions of opium. Therefore, it is easier to comprehend what the author\u27s purpose is. In the last chapter I summarize the main points of the preceding chapters and confirm particularity of Judge Lin
