Overview
The template of crowdiagnosis project is shown in this section and it can be copied for creating the causes page by going into the edit box.
- The overview section should include the disease name in the first sentence.
- The goal is to summarize the page in several sentences, and the section can be the same as the causes segment on the overview page.
- Confirm that the overview statement is in a text format and does not contain bullet points.
- Confirm that periods, commas and spaces are appropriately placed.
- Confirm that no text is bolded or italicized randomly in between the text.
- Make sure to check for spellings and grammatical errors thoroughly.
- Confirm that there are no floating periods and comas.
- Confirm that periods and comas are present before the start of references instead at the end to avoid floating periods and comas.
- Confirm that all the internal links work and there are no black links in between texts.
- Confirm that no links are created to same page.
- Make sure to create maximum internal links and for complete words, e.g,
- Ventricular tachycardia – [[Ventricular]] [[tachycardia]] – not recommended
- Ventricular tachycardia- [[Ventricular tachycardia]] – recommended
- To see an example, click here.
Template
- First Sentence:
- [Disease name] may be caused by either [cause1], [cause2], or [cause3].

- Example 10: Common causes of PID include Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis. Less common causes of PID include Bacteroides, Enterococci, Mycoplasma and Staphylococci.
- Additional Sentences:
- [Pathogen] belongs to the [pathogen family] family.
- OR

- Example 2: C. difficile is a spore-forming, toxin-producing, obligate anaerobic, gram-positive bacillus.
- Example 3: Salmonella spp. is a motile, lactose-fermenting, facultative intracellular gram-negative rod.
- Example 4: Influenza is an enveloped, pleomorphic, segmented virus with a negative-sense, single-stranded RNA genome.
- Example 5: Other causes of PID include Bacteroides, Enterococci, Mycoplasma and Staphylococci.
Preferred Template Statements
IF there are life-threatening causes of the disease, list those first, followed by common causes, then less common causes.
- Life-threatening causes of [symptom/manifestation] include [cause1], [cause2], and [cause3].
- [Cause] is a life-threatening cause of [disease].
IF there are no life-threatening causes of the disease, begin with common causes. If no distinctions can be made between common and less-common causes, list all causes together.
- On the overview page, use a full sentence:
- Disease name] may be caused by [cause1], [cause2], or [cause3].
- Common causes of [disease] include [cause1], [cause2], and [cause3].
- The most common cause of [disease name] is [cause 1]. Less common causes of [disease name] include [cause 2], [cause 3], and [cause 4].
- On the Causes microchapter, use bullet points:

Life-threatening causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
- Life threatening causes do not include chronic conditions.
- Make sure to include the following definition underneath the subheading of every life threatening causes section: Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
- The list of life threatening causes is arranged in alphabetical order.
- If the page's disease is itself life-threatening, do not add causes in the life-threatening causes section. Instead, write the following sentence under the subheading: Disease name is a life-threatening condition and must be treated as such irrespective of the causes. Life-threatening conditions may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Common causes
- This section is to outline the most common causes of the disease or condition you are describing.
- This can be done in a list form where causes are arranged in alphabetical order.
Less common causes
- This section is to outline the less common causes of the disease or condition you are describing.
- This can be done in a list form where causes are arranged in alphabetical order.
Causes by organ system
- To obtain the coding for the table seen below, click here. You need to copy the table content from the edit box, and paste it into the edit box.
- You can then list the causes by organ system. List the causes, separated by a comma under the appropriate category where it says "No underlying causes". Erase "No underlying causes" if you are listing causes in that category.
- For an example of the causes by organ system table in a causes microchapter, click here.
