| Uploading Images
|
| First Read the help page Images
The following describes how to upload an image with all the information that must be associated with it.
The image must first be uploaded to the site.
- Open the left hand menu item “Toolbox” and click “Upload file” and a new window will open.
- Click the button ”Choose file” and navigate to where the image is located on your computer and double click the file.
- The window will now show the file name in the “Source filename” window.
- You can then rename the uploaded file in the “Destination filename” window.
- Make sure the new name accurately describes the image.
- Add a description of the image to the “Summary” window. Note the description must include:
- An image name as a section heading.
- Any further description of what the image shows.
- A subsection labeled “Reference” and under this the original image source, appropriate reference and all copyright information.
- Finally a template indicating that this is a student image. {{Template:Student Image}}
Images not including the above information will be deleted by the course coordinator and be considered in the student assessment process.
Students cannot delete uploaded images. Contact the course coordinator with the file address.

| Plagiarism
|
| First Read the help page Copyright Tutorial
Currently all students originally assigned to each group are listed as equal authors/contributors to their project. If you have not contributed the content you had originally agreed to, nor participated in the group work process, then you should contact the course coordinator immediately and either discuss your contribution or request removal from the group author list. Remember that all student online contributions are recorded by date, time and the actual contributed content. A similar email reminder of this information was sent to all current students.
Please note the Universities Policy regarding Plagiarism
"Plagiarism at UNSW is defined as using the words or ideas of others and passing them off as your own." (extract from UNSW statement on Academic Honesty and Plagiarism)
Academic Misconduct carries penalties. If a student is found guilty of academic misconduct, the penalties include warnings, remedial educative action, being failed in an assignment or excluded from the University for two years.

| Journal Searches
|
| Below are shown some easy methods, with examples, for setting up simple searches of PubMed and other Journal databases. In most cases, you simply need to replace the existing term (embryo) where it appears in Wiki code with your own. Note there may also be additional "Advanced search" options available within these sites.
Students - read the paper first before committing to use/cite the material, to ensure you are using the information correctly and in context.
- Reference Links: Embryology Textbooks | Journals | Journal Searches | Reference Tutorial | Copyright | For Students | UNSW Online Textbooks | iBooks | Journals | RSS Feeds | Online | Societies | Online Databases | Historic - Textbooks | Pubmed Most Recent | Category:References
Please use the following as a guide:
- Always when citing, identify reviews separately from original research articles.
- Always identify copyright conditions allow your reuse of content before uploading.
- If quoting text verbatim always include in "quotation marks" and reference, or additionally identify in brackets after the excerpt.
External Links Notice - The dynamic nature of the internet may mean that some of these listed links may no longer function. If the link no longer works search the web with the link text or name.

--Mark Hill (talk) 11:16, 25 September 2015 (AEST) Hmm still a little thin. There should be some animal model info, histology images, physiological data, drug info, and genetic information.
--Z3374116 (talk) 17:15, 18 August 2015 (AEST) Hello there
--Z3415911 (talk) 16:12, 24 August 2015 (AEST) Hey guys! So I've gone and added a few subheadings that may be useful to start researching. For this weeks assessment we need to choose one each and find 3 articles to go with it etc. So if we all choose one and start researching it, that would be good :)
--Z3415911 (talk) 11:02, 26 August 2015 (AEST) Good article for treatment http://humupd.oxfordjournals.org/content/16/5/459.abstract?etoc
--Z3374116 (talk) 19:20, 26 August 2015 (AEST) Sweet, Thanks for putting up those headings to get things going. Lets all put up related documents by Thursday so we have can discuss things at the Lab this Friday!
--Z3374116 (talk) 19:29, 26 August 2015 (AEST) I've put up some interesting pubmed documents on our main page, Have a read through them (I haven't read them all yet)

--Z3374116 (talk) 11:40, 28 August 2015 (AEST) I wont be able to make it to uni today for the lab and the meetup after it. Got to take my cousin to the ER
--Z3374116 (talk) 12:07, 28 August 2015 (AEST) I was thinking to include the risk factors in the 'causative' subheading
--Z3374116 (talk) 13:22, 28 August 2015 (AEST) So basically in the Causative subheading, I was planning
1) Identify the different causes (including primary and secondary risk factors)
2) What difference occurs from a normal cycle (e.g. level of hCG normally)
--Z3415911 (talk) 13:36, 28 August 2015 (AEST) No problem! I hope your cousin is okay. Whoever added a sub heading called: Tests and Diagnosis, there already is the same kind of subheading, Symptoms and Diagnosis so we need to merge the two. It also needs to be in chronological order
--Z3372824 (talk) 13:46, 28 August 2015 (AEST)Hope he gets well! Talking about sections, I'll try and work on Prevention, and get the research summaries done for that section by next week.
--Z3372824 (talk) 14:00, 28 August 2015 (AEST) J and I had a little discussion about how we're going to go about completing this. We can all work on each others sections and collaborate that way. Let's focus on finding research articles, collating them, referencing them i.e. get to the meat of the matter. Once we've done that we can cut to the point and make it more easy-to-read/user-friendly. We also think that our 1 wiki page reference should be the OHSS Wiki page. Also, when writing about your section, always compare/refer to the Controlled Ovarian Stimulation case. Bring those picture/youtube suggestions in!
--Z3374116 (talk) 00:12, 29 August 2015 (AEST) Sweet, thanks for the info. Will be on the lookout for youtube clips and pictures. Is the OHSS wikipage you are referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovarian_hyperstimulation_syndrome
this one?? And I agree on helping each other with respective sections and then cutting it down to the fine details
--Z3415911 (talk) 21:49, 1 September 2015 (AEST) Yes, that's the wiki page :) I have already started taking down information from it in each section so when you see [OHSS Wiki], that's where the information is from. I just don't know how to reference something that is not pubmed yet haha
--Z3415911 (talk) 22:11, 1 September 2015 (AEST) Also guys please note, I have not used any info. from wiki in regards to TREATMENT and PREVENTION as it appears someone is already working on those subheadings and I don't want to interfere, so yea, that info. is still out there for you guys to use.
--Z3415911 (talk) 11:51, 13 September 2015 (AEST) Hey guys, can everyone please send me an email with your full names so I can add you on fb and make group. I feel like we need a better way of communicating. Thanks, z3415911@student.unsw.edu.au.
