Mikael; I can see a lot of promise in this idea. I think you should approach CDC with it though, because they would have the resources to make it more productive. Sincerely; Geoff

From: Mikael Häggström haggstrom.mikael@gmail.com

A proposal of a new Sister Project, called Wikisick is started. It is a wiki where every article is a real medical case. Basically, the victims of diseases write the symptoms and upload interactive media, and any medically interested person describes it.

Possibly redundant with existing non-Wikimedia projects:

http://askdrwiki.com/ http://www.ganfyd.org/

Both of these restrict contribution to medical professionals, presumably for quality of content.
