  1. La femme de menage (talk · contribs · central auth · count · email). I may create article as fr:Cancer lobulaire in situ, or improve quality by adding facts or checking unsourced material (example on Carcinome_canalaire_in_situ; on IVF) or rewrite article (example on the page immunoadhesine nominated for deletion), but very often I feel limited as most of sources nor their full abstract are available on line. So, it could great to have such an access. --La femme de menage (talk) 22:17, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

  2. Themidget17 (talk · contribs · central auth · count · email) I'm short of the 500 edits requirement; however, I like contributing to medicine-related articles over any other subject, and this would be very useful. Themidget17 (talk) 04:53, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
