Simpler language

For medical articles we work to write the WP:leads, if not the entire article, as simply as possible without introducing errors. English Wikipedia is a global encyclopedia used extensively by many who speak English as a second language. We therefore try to use common words as well as short sentences. See here for more details. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:42, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
