This document discusses ScientistsDB, a database of scientists not included in Wikipedia. It notes that ScientistsDB contains almost 50,000 scientist profiles sourced from Wikipedia and user contributions. The document advocates adding notable scientists like Dr. Chris Lipinski to the database since he has over 5,000 citations but lacks a Wikipedia page. It provides instructions for copying a template and filling it with information about Lipinski found via PubMed and Google in order to create his profile for the database. The overall goal discussed is improving ScientistsDB by adding more scientist profiles to help others find experts for collaborations, conferences, and interviews.

1. Adding Dr. Chris Lipinski (and other
scientists) to ScientistsDB: notable
scientists not on Wikipedia
Sean Ekins, Ph.D, D.S.c

2. What is ScientistsDB
• ScientistsDB is a database of scientists, young and
old, historical and active, from various sciences.
• Almost 50,000 articles from Wikipedia
• User-contributed content
• http://www.scientistsdb.com
• http://www.slideshare.net/AntonyWilliams/scien
tists-database

3. Motivations
• Tired of having to hunt around many websites to find
scientists for paper reviewing, chapter contributions or for
conferences.
• Fed up with having to send your bio and headshot to
conference organizers?
• Reporters having a hard time finding the best scientist to
interview?
• Want to find new scientists to collaborate with but do not
know where to start?

4. Wikipedia wants you ONLY if you
are a notable scientist
We want you because you are a scientist
We want the world to find you

9. Cut and paste template

10. Add text that describes Chris and
references..search Pubmed and
Google, remove papers by others
called CA Lipinski

11. Find a picture and add link to LinkedIn

12. Help us improve the content

Lipinski that are not in Wikipedia
• Please add them and yourself to ScientistsDB
• Let the world find you.
