Thanks to the BBC I became aware of an excellent site called Wikipedia. This is
a free Encyclopaedia created entirely by its users. It has been going since
January 2001, and now has over 200,000 pages of content.

There are Leishamaniasis [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leishmaniasis]and
Leishmania [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leishmania]pages that we can build on
as a group. Unfortunatley the Leishmania page has many errors and needs to be
corrected! However, it offers very exciting possibilities as it is immediate
and interactive and follows the principal of free data access.
  
Please have a look at it and put your thoughts there! Editing skills can be
acquired in just a few minutes.
