Hi, I’m creating this thread because the Me-pedia primer for journalists is outdated.
However, it is likely still being seen by many journalists:
* The page gets hundreds of views per day
* It is the first google search result for various searches related to journalism and reporting on ME
* The...
I would like to send the following proposal to ME Action, as it is currently in the process of specifying its core values and principles. I’m inviting other ME/CFS advocates and members of ME/CFS community to co-sign the statement if they agree with the proposal.
I prefer to make the statement...

This is by far the most important page on MEpedia: https://www.me-pedia.org/wiki/Myalgic_encephalomyelitis
While as always, I highly encourage direct contributions/edits, we should if nothing else get this page right. So I'm very happy to make edits on behalf of folks who really don't have the...
In conjunction with the master list of facts @JaimeS is discussing in this thread (https://www.s4me.info/threads/a-masterlist-of-me-facts-the-citations-that-support-them.5315/unread), I would love help improving MEpedia's epidemiology page...

This thread has been split off from the introductory MEpedia thread here.
@JenB

We have a bunch of facts we use both for advocacy and for scientific research that we cite often. I spend a good amount of time at #MEAction providing citations to other advocates, and I know that advocates spend hours... and hours... and hours searching for the right citation to support a fact...

The former will eventually be packaged into handouts patients can give their surgeon...

For those not on Facebook, I...
This is the new front page of MEpedia and the "What is ME" icon will take you to Portal: Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.
Jen has been doing a lot of portal work and I think the new front page looks great.
ETA: I'm not part of the MEpedia team, I've just shared their Facebook post. Please contact them on Facebook if you think you can help.
ETA2: I do have a contact email address for the MEpedia team but would prefer not to advertise it (for privacy reasons) - if you are interested in helping out...
