medonet ref as generic source

[edit]

@Wiklol: Where are the data in the medonet URL? I didn't see any serious source of data there. It seems to me reasonable to consider announcements by hospitals in mainstream media (not the more tabloidy ones) as a complement to official announcements (tweets/press conferences/static web pages) from the MOH (Ministry of Health). In any case, in the note for this chart, unless we are going to add a references column, I think we should limit the text to a description of the sources that are used elsewhere - which are by preference from the MOH.

Maybe what you mean is that the medonet URL is updated rapidly with links to mainstream media articles on new updates? This is useful, but does not quite count as "a source".

I propose shifting the medonet URL to the External links section of the article. Any objections? Boud (talk) 16:13, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject COVID-19

[edit]

I've created WikiProject COVID-19 as a temporary or permanent WikiProject and invite editors to use this space for discussing ways to improve coverage of the ongoing 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. Please bring your ideas to the project/talk page. Stay safe, --Another Believer (Talk) 18:16, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Percentage or absolute option for new infections?

[edit]

I started a discussion on that topic here Project COVID-19, Medical cases charts - change type. My personal opinion is that absolute change display suits much better in an epidemic's second wave. But also the status quo ante should be kept until some agreement is reached (locally or possibly a consensus in linked discussion). -- Kohraa Mondel (talk) 15:33, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
