Milk - emulsion or colloid
I'd like to discuss your edit changing the classification of milk to a sol colloid from an emulsion. Milk fat is a solid or a liquid, depending on the temperature. At the body temperature of a cow, milk fat is probably a liquid, or at least somewhere inbetween a liquid and a solid. Try leaving butter in your cupboard during a summer heat-wave! It is more solid at room and refridgerated temperatures. Not sure if this qualifies it as a sol colloid or not, but I don't believe the definition of an emulsion is contingent on it's physical state (e.g. liquid). Perhaps it fits both classifications, there is no reason that it couldn't, but it would depend on the temperature! Maybe the article should be written to reflect this, but some citations are necessary to back this up. I'm sure few people would disagree on the status of milk as an emulsion, and it is also a colloid. Here are some references in support of the definition of milk as an emulsion:
http://www.foodsci.uoguelph.ca/dairyedu/chem.html#lipids1
http://animsci.agrenv.mcgill.ca/courses/450/topics/2.html
http://classes.ansci.uiuc.edu/ansc438/Milkcompsynth/milkcomp_physicochem.html
http://www.nutrition.org.uk/home.asp?siteId=43§ionId=427&parentSection=322&which=
I am changing it back to being called an emulsion, but adding that it can also be referred to as a colloid. If you want to add the sol definition, perhaps we need a little more than the sol colloid stub with no references to back this up.

- That works for me... I just wanted to resolve the difference in articles. I've updated Colloid to match. — Epastore (talk) 02:27, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- Boy, it would have been nice if some of this discussion had been placed in the colloid page. I just editted it back to sol, and now find this discussion here. Sigh. The discussion of butter is interesting, because of course the colloid page is quite comfortable calling it a gel, despite it being an emulsion at the same temperatures at which milk is an emulsion.
- Perhaps the wise thing is to remove dairy products from the illustrative table; surely the table is meant to inform and not to include confusing edge cases. - 63.107.91.99 (talk) 19:36, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

- @Zefr: I don't understand why this message applies. I am using the already-cited secondary source which thoroughly cites primary sources in its summary. Granted, it should be re-written a little; but the article should not be reverted. The old version is patently false, as it uses 2014-2015 articles to claim that there is no research. That is no longer true in 2019. —Epastore (talk) 22:03, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- You said: "In vitro and animal studies indicate that the leaf, seed, and root extracts of moringa oleifera have anticancer, hepatoprotective, hypoglycemic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antisickling effects. They may also protect against Alzheimer’s disease and stomach ulcers, help lower cholesterol levels, promote wound healing, and alleviate symptoms of ulcerative colitis." This statement is promotional spam, going from primary lab findings to suggesting moringa has a wide range of clinical effects, none of which comes close to being proven. WP:MEDRS requires high-quality reviews, which are not available. The MSKCC source, "For Healthcare Professions", says: "Clinical data are limited, but preliminary findings show that MO exerts a small positive effect on lipid profiles. An MO leaf powder increased insulin secretion in healthy subjects, and improved nutritional status and intake of AIDS patients undergoing antiretroviral therapy." All of this is preliminary, non-MEDRS material, and has no place in the article. Bottom line: there should be no inference of positive effect of moringa, and the MSKCC source is only usable for sourcing potential adverse effects. --Zefr (talk) 23:33, 21 February 2019 (UTC)]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Rolfing; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
