Wiki Education assignment: 2024-25 TCOM WikiMed Period 21

This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 3 March 2025 and 28 March 2025. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Blakecamp34 (article contribs). Peer reviewers: Kevg777.

Wiki Education Assignment: Workplan

Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference?

• Several statements in the article lack proper citations, particularly in the "Cause" and "Treatment" sections. Some claims about etiology and surgical treatment options are not backed up by inline citations. I plan to strengthen these sections by adding up-to-date, peer-reviewed references.

Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?

• Overall, the content is relevant to Kienböck's disease. However, the "Cause" section could be organized more clearly, and additional explanation of certain terms (e.g., ulnar variance) might improve readability. Nothing seems distracting, but the lack of references in key areas stands out.

Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?

• The article maintains a neutral and factual tone. There is no apparent bias toward specific treatment options or causes.

Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?

• Current sources include medical textbooks and journals, which are neutral and reputable. However, several claims lack citations, and supplementing them with recent journal articles will enhance reliability and neutrality.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

• The article focuses heavily on mechanical causes and surgical treatments but underrepresents newer surgical techniques and long-term outcomes. Including more about advanced imaging techniques, vascularized grafts, and prognosis will provide a more balanced view.

Check a few citations. Do the links work? Is there any close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article?

• Most of the citations work properly. There is no evidence of plagiarism, though some sentences closely reflect textbook phrasing and could benefit from paraphrasing in original language.

Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?

• Some sections, particularly on treatment, are missing recent developments like arthroscopic techniques or vascularized bone grafting. Additionally, there is no Prognosis section, which I plan to add.

Which sections will you prioritize?

• Expanding and referencing the Cause section.
• Adding a new Prognosis section.
• Updating and expanding the Treatment section to include modern techniques.
• Ensuring proper citations for all factual claims.

What resources do you intend to look up, and when?

• Peer-reviewed journal articles from Journal of Hand Surgery, European Radiology, and others.
• Clinical reviews and guidelines.
• Authoritative orthopedic and radiology textbooks.

I plan to gather and review these over the next week before editing.

How will you decide what things (signs, symptoms, side-effects, etc.) to explicitly include? To explicitly exclude?

• I will include well-supported information from reputable sources, focusing on consistently reported signs, symptoms, treatments, and outcomes. I will exclude anecdotal or poorly-supported claims to maintain article quality.

Will you also embed additional links to other Wiki pages?

• Yes, I will add internal links to related articles, such as Avascular necrosis, Lunate bone, Ulnar variance, and Wrist arthroscopy.

How will you ensure you avoid "doctor-speak" and not use jargon?

• I will use clear, simple language and define medical terms when necessary to keep the article accessible to a general audience.

Peer Review

Lead: The lead does a great job of introducing Kienböck's disease and it clearly states what the condition is and gives an idea of the article’s scope.

Content: The content is relevant and up-to-date and cites studies that refer to revent imaging and graft techniques.

Tone and Balance: The tone is neutral overall. There are no major instances of persuasion or bias although more citations would strengthen the balance. In the article there are phrases such as “patients are frustrated” or “doctors shy from this” that may inadvertently come off as subjective

Sources and References: While some sections are well-cited, there are several “[citation needed]” tags as well.

Organization: The article is well-structured and divided into sections: Cause, Diagnosis, Treatment, Prognosis. The content is generally clear and easy to follow. One area of improvement would be to streamline the treatment section to avoid repeated explanations.

Images and Media: The images are helpful, especially the annotated X-rays. The captions are also informative and relevant.

Overall: This was a great article and I enjoyed learning about this topic. It was well-detailed and included comprehensive well-organized sections which also integrated modern surgical techniques. 2603:8080:B1F0:880:540F:1CAF:1192:5932 (talk) 05:10, 25 March 2025 (UTC)
