325 \centertext{6em}{Content quality}
329 A decade after the landmark "Nature" study, there still aren't too
330 many systematic evaluations of the accuracy of Wikipedia's content.
331 Health articles continue to receive scrutiny, though. With good
332 reason: Wikipedia is "the most frequently consulted online health
333 care resource globally" [NEJM article].}

373 issues safety warnings about prescription drugs. How long does it
374 take until these are reflected on English Wikipedia?
375 \item 41\% updated within two weeks (58\% for high-prevalent
376 diseases), but 36\% still unchanged after more than a year.
381 Articles about drugs used to treat high-prevalent diseases (affecting
382 > 1 m Americans / year) were updated faster.\\
383 But the result still caused concern.\\
384 Authors find "there may be a benefit to enabling the FDA to update or
385 automatically feed new safety communications to Wikipedia pages, as
386 it does with WebMD". The paper raised awareness among WikiProject
387 Medicine editors, but there's no systematic updating mechanism yet.}
