DS Alert[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in the Electronic cigarette topic area. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Dosing[edit]

Per WP:MEDMOS we do not including dosing information. Best Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 07:48, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies about the dosing and trade name, didn't realize that and appreciate your edits of those. Can I ask the reason for deleting "This may be because it reduces dopamine, a brain chemical associated with tobacco craving. Bupropion may also help quitting because it blocks the action of nicotine at the nicotine receptor; thus, smoking while using bupropion would be less satisfying" That would seem like good and understandable information for readers, no? DrNicotiana (talk) 14:08, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What references supported the bupropion bit? Would go in the section on pharmacodynamics. We already say "Bupropion is also known to act as a non-competitive antagonist of the α3β2, α3β4, α4β2, and, very weakly, α7 nACh receptors,[14][81]and these actions appear to be importantly involved in its beneficial properties not only in smoking cessation, but in depression as well." by the way. P.S. that could also use simplification. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:32, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A cup of coffee for you![edit]

You seem friendly, thanks for being a new face at Wikipedia's very popular content on e-cigarettes. There is nothing that we would want more than university and academic engagement in the development of Wikipedia's content in this highly contentious space with so much difficult information in circulation. Thanks for coming. Please stay around. Blue Rasberry (talk) 20:17, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
