Specialized Research & Content Writer: Academic Reference Article Creation

Posted 2 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

Project Overview We are seeking a highly experienced Digital Encyclopedia Consultant and Research Writer to build a comprehensive reference article from scratch. The article will be a profile of a renowned medical professional. We need a professional who can execute a 100% manual, ground-up creation based entirely on high-quality, independent secondary sources to meet the platform's stringent Verifiability and Neutral Point of View standards. Scope of Work Source Discovery & Audit: Identify and vet high-quality secondary sources (e.g., systematic reviews, peer-reviewed academic journals, and authoritative industry guidelines) from scratch. Manual "Ground-Up" Writing: Produce a completely original version of the article. Zero AI usage is permitted. The text must be factual, dry, and encyclopedic, avoiding the "vague or essay-like" tone common in LLM outputs. Citation Mapping: Ensure every single claim is explicitly supported by a reliable, independent source. No "hallucinated" or loosely related citations. Reviewer Mediation: Handle the submission process, including addressing community reviewer comments, navigating talk pages, and ensuring all institutional disclosure policies are handled transparently. Required Qualifications Proven Platform Tenure: An established editor account in good standing with a history of successful public reference or wiki submissions. Advanced Research Skills: Ability to navigate databases like PubMed, JSTOR, or Google Scholar to find independent coverage. Policy Expertise: Deep knowledge of digital encyclopedia core content policies (Reliable Sources, Neutral Point of View, and Notability). Specialized familiarity with high-standard medical and scientific sourcing guidelines is mandatory. Human-Centric Writing: Ability to write in a strict encyclopedic voice—neutral, concise, and completely devoid of marketing "fluff". To Apply, Please Provide: Links to 2–3 reference articles you have successfully gotten published. A brief description of your strategy for ensuring a brand-new article successfully navigates the approval process without triggering AI-detection or promotional flags. Your favorite tool or database for finding authoritative secondary sources.
