Re: Help saving the Wikipedia-article on PSSD

[Guest guest]

It would be safest if we all would make a copy of this Wikipedia text

on a USB-stick. It is a simple precaution. I think we have to protect

us against possible attacks.

I agree it would be very important that The English PSSD article on

www.wikipedia.org is translated and published on all other language

versions of Wikipedia. And there can be referrals made to it in the

Wikipedia-articles about SSRIs, antidepressants, psychiatric

medication and sexual problems in those same langages.

Wikipedia is a very popular and fast growing source of information

which is taken seriously bij many users. Wikipedia is proven to be

relatively accurate in comparison to traditional encyclopedias.

I guess on this forum are many people who speak different languages

than English. And anybody can freely contribute articles to Wikipedia.

Computer programs can translate words but the grammar comes off very

strange and untrustworthy. If we are going to translate information

about PSSD to another language (wikipedia, videos or text on web

pages) it should be done by someone with some understanding of the

language. Like I've said before I'm ready to post a PSSD video in

another language up on my youtube site if someone is willing to write

the text for me. A user who recently joined the group and is from

Luxembourg was willing to translate one of my videos into French and

German. I hope he is still active.

A new Wikipedia article can be very short. One short sentences with a

weblink is enough to start. The article can then draw attention and

will probably subsequently be improved by other Wikipedia editors,

based on the English PSSD article on Wikipedia.
