You have undone my edit to the page web3 with a rationale that makes absolutely no sense (redundant...for what?) Elyna2734 (talk) 23:34, 25 June 2022 (UTC) If you disagree with my contribution open a item in the talk page to enable discussion.[reply]

Ok, I explained my rationale. ScienceFlyer (talk) 00:48, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@SandyGeorgia: Thanks for letting me know. ScienceFlyer (talk) 10:32, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am done now with basic cleanup-- just the first pass-- much more could be fixed there, and I haven't yet had time to read all sources. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 11:16, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, the source for the claim that Oz was responsible for injecting puppies looks like this;

http://www.columbiacruelty.com/feat-pupkillings.asp

and the link to the letter on Waybackmachine looks like this;

http://www.columbiacruelty.com/letters/USDA1104.pdf

What they both have in common is http://www.columbiacruelty.com - google that - can you read Mandarin?

I spent over an hour searching for any legit source - there are none Mark^Dask 00:29, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Markdask Thanks- feel free to start a discussion, if desired. I saw that Columbia settled the concerns (for $2k) and there was no finding or admission of guilt. This was discussed years ago, according to the talk archives. ScienceFlyer (talk) 04:52, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@User talk:ScienceFlyer In undoing my edits of NCIIH, you said "Remove needless and unsourced edits" All the edits made the article more accurate and were sourced. The NIH has 27 Institutes, Centers, and Offices. Why did you object to this correction? The article you restored is not neutral. As noted in the article talk:

== Criticism section?[edit] ==

Given that 90% of this article is listing criticisms, having a Criticism section seems redundant. Jimmy Wales said, "it isn't that we should not include the criticisms, but that the information should be properly incorporated throughout the article rather than having a troll magnet section of random criticisms."

The article should reflect the Center as it exists today. Please propose how you to remove the current inaccuracy?

Edit on Neuroborreliosis

You reverted my edit on

WP:MEDMOS

. You also added the acronym LNB which is not cited. A google search of LNB does not return anything relating to Lyme Neuroborreliosis. Please refrain from editing this article unitl you know what you are doing.

Sneasel talk 16:59, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A PubMed search shows LNB is a common acronym for Lyme neuroborreliosis. This article needs work, but I didn't see any improvements, which is why I reverted it. Reliable sources have brought attention to discredited treatments. (See the citations plus, for example, box 2) I appreciate your efforts to improve this article, and recommend incorporating newer guidelines (North America, CDC Treatment, CDC/APHL testing recommendations, and France), and scientific reviews (See reports in Emerging Infectious Diseases, BMJ, and Nature). ScienceFlyer (talk) 17:24, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also please note that

WP:MEDMOS is only a suggested guideline; plenty of article deviate from it. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:31, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply

Thank you for helping me with the Himalaya Wellness article.

I'm new to Wikipedia, and I need guidance on how to handle someone who is intentionally butchering the edits to the articles I've written. An example is this user: Special:Contributions/49.37.249.99. They seem to be removing any content that portrays India in a less favorable light. What should I do in this situation? I'm a sporadic Wikipedia contributor, and I can't consistently monitor the pages I edit due to time constraints.

EDIT: I quickly compared what they have written against the articles they referenced, and there's a significant disparity (part of their edits are not even related to the Wikipedia article they're editing). Unfortunately, I can't do anything about it, as it takes considerably more effort to correct a broken edit than to write one from scratch.

That thing needs attention from someone with journal access; it's a controversial diagnosis, and a mess. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:04, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, ScienceFlyer. We need to work out the issues with the current usage of "Quackwatch" as an attributed source on the article about the American Academy of Environmental Medicine. First, I have to cover what I take as a bit of a personal slight: your edit summaries thus far have been lacking greatly. "It's all fine" is not an argument, and consensus is built on the soundness of the arguments made. It's very hard to take your reverts seriously and in good faith when there is no sensible information in the edit summary.

So here I am to discuss with you directly.

The biggest issue I have with Quackwatch is that most of the site's content is simply

, and that articles by Barrett are often only his opinion. In this case, the linked article is merely Barrett's opinion that he "distrusts" this large list of groups.

I think I can accepts QW's point being in this "legitimacy" section (though maybe a retitle should be made at a later time). I think we would need stronger attribution (to Barrett, not just Quackwatch) and want the exact contention made actually in the article (for promotion of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity). I think the "29 of their doctors have had disciplinary actions against them" is like begging the question ("have you stopped beating your wife"). There's absolutely no context and appears to exist as information only to discredit, rather than inform. It should be removed per

. Finally, I don't know why you removed the sourced information that the AAEM is accredited to issue CME. That seems a very relevant counter-point to Barrett's "questionable" status.

So, I'd settle for this as a compromise:

chronic candidiasis, and toxic mold syndrome.^[1][2] The AAEM is also not recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties.^[3] However, the academy is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education.^[4]

I just noticed that the QW info is repeated in the lede, so that would be removed as well per

wp:synth

Will you please discuss? Give me a good faith effort to edit this section to be in better keeping with WP guidelines. Instead of a further revert, try a second edit. 76.178.169.118 (talk) 17:43, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Lyme disease#new photo

Hi, I think the photo of the Lyme patient might need an extra step of a link with underscores. Please compare to the photos regarding Capricorn One novels.

Since these are side-by-side photos, I’m using this as a potential model.

Capricorn One#Other media

Click on either photo, click on “More details,” and you’ll see the name in blue with underscores between the words. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 21:23, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bingo! We’re in business! The key step seemed to be removing “thumb|upright . . . ”, a change which another Wiki member made.

I’m planning to first look at the 4 references given for the current photo and see if I can incorporate 1 or 2 of these in the article text.

Again, thanks for getting this rolling and for finding the photo you posted. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 17:49, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ScienceFlyer: Hi, please think of me as a potential co-worker on medical issues. I think we worked reasonably well together on Lyme disease. And feel free to pop me a hello on other medical issues. Thanks. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 15:31, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
