James Heilman is an emergency room physician known as an advocate for the improvement of Misplaced Pages's health-related content, and for encouraging other clinicians to contribute to the website. He formerly sat on the Wikimedia Canada board of directors, and is president of Wiki Project Med Foundation. Heilman is a clinical faculty member at the department of emergency medicine at the University of British Columbia, and an emergency physician at East Kootenay Regional Hospital in Cranbrook, British Columbia, where he lives.

In 2009, he was involved in a controversy when he added public domain images of the ink blots used in the Rorschach test to the Misplaced Pages article on the subject, angering a number of psychologists concerned that could invalidate the tests. In an interview with The New York Times Heilman explained that a discussion about the deletion of one of the images motivated him to upload them all: "I just wanted to raise the bar—whether one should keep a single image on Misplaced Pages seemed absurd to me, so I put all 10 up..." Heilman argued that fear of harm from publishing the images was unfounded and that "restricting information for theoretical concerns is not what we are here to do." In August 2009, two Canadian psychologists filed complaints about Heilman to his local doctors’ organization. One of the complainants, Andrea Kowaz, argued that if Heilman were a psychologist, his actions would be "viewed as serious misconduct." Heilman responded by referring to the complaints as "intimidation tactics." An extensive debate ensued on Misplaced Pages and the images were kept.

In 2012 Heilman was one of two Wikimedia contributors sued by Internet Brands for shifting freely-licensed content and volunteer editors from the for-profit site Wikitravel to the non-profit site Wikivoyage. Internet Brands alleged trademark and intellectual property violations, and unfair business practices. The Wikimedia Foundation defended Heilman's actions in the lawsuit, citing volunteer freedom of choice. The suit was dismissed by the United States District Court of California.

Heilman is the lead coordinator on a project with Translators Without Borders working to improve and translate the top importance English Misplaced Pages medical articles into minority languages.
