Increased visibility for VitaminDWiki pages
Some of the 7,000+ VitaminDWiki pages are
Very popular (>3,000 visits)
And have been read for 3+ minutes (average)
We are considering giving these pages more visibility through
https://www.researchgate.net in PDF format
http://www.slideshare.net in PDF format
http://amazon.com in Kindle format
Social media such as https://www.facebook.com, https://www.reddit.com
- 1 paragraph intro with link to webpage
- Advertising of pages with Google AdWords
- in many languages – English started in 2014
- Sending PDFs (with introductions) to groups, such as
- http://examine.com, http://www.mercola.com, http://www.greenmedinfo.com applicable forums
Medical publication
Issue a press release for the page (free for non-profits)
Human translation of a few pages to a few languages (improving Google Translate)
All of the VitaminDWiki pages can be easily read in 90+ languages (via Google Translate)
Thus the publishing/increased visibility can often be done in various languages
Note: Text in graphics are not translated, so may be of little use in another language
**If you have suggestion of pages or locations for increased visibility please email - hlahore@gmail.com
For very old pages: add categories (i.e. pregnancy, autism.) – with summary
Broken link checking (about 1% of links off of VitaminDWiki are now broken)
Sometimes extract some or all of attached PDF to page (text & some graphics) for translation (Use ABBYY PDF Transformer+)
- I may not have had enough time to extract it originally
Edit for readability, possibly improve title
Check that formatting still OK after translation
Spell and grammar checking
Perhaps add incoming links to the page
- Compare "Links to this page" at the bottom of the page with the outgoing hyperlinks
Publish (make PDF, Kindle, . . ) - probably making "jacket covers" in each language
Publish in English initially, then perhaps Spanish, etc.
Note: Print to PDF at bottom of page is English-only.
People with a variety of talents will be needed to do the above preparation and publication* Would like to also create translatable versions of several graphics *The Text-based version of each graphic need not look the samen or have the same colors, but it should have similar content.
This will make the text available for translation during publication - both online and offline
Examples (all of which are clickable)
Many ways to increase Vitamin D

Pre-term birth costs $51,800 (vs. very little vitamin D to prevent one: 10% of births are pre-term)

Evolution seems to indicate a vitamin D level of 45-60 ng

Many Vicious loops: low D ==> diseases ==> lower D

** VitaminDWiki uses software that allows many people to edit it at the same time.__
