Basigin - Role in SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Hi, MrOllie, you have removed a valid contribution and proper scientific resource from the section. Can you please provide your arguments about it? What was the issue with this post? Thanks.

Text removed:

New research suggest SARS-CoV-2 spike protein might be causing dysfunction of the cardiac pericytes via CD147 receptor mediated signaling and potentially contributing to microvascular injury.[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Radoi4yk (talkcontribs) 11:49, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:MEDRS. Medical statements such as that one have minimum sourcing requirements on Wikipedia that require the use of secondary sources such as systematic review articles. MrOllie (talk) 18:42, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MrOllie, I'm kindly requesting to re-asses your position. Based on the provided guideline all information quoted from primary sources should be removed and as far as I can see this is not the case in this article. This includes all contributions to the topic of connection of CD147 to SARS-CoV-2. Since the interaction between CD147 and the spike protein is being currently investigated and in order to assure scientific neutrality, primary sources providing broader picture of the current state of research should be included as also evident from the presence of primary sources 18,19 and 20. I suggest to include the research I referred to, as it has significant contribution in explaining the mechanism of interaction. It is also directly related to sources 18, 19 and 20, which are primary sources as well (it quotes paper 18 too). Thank you and best regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Radoi4yk (talkcontribs) 22:18, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The medical sourcing guidelines enjoy very wide agreement across the Wikipedia community, I couldn't overrule them single handedly even if I wanted to - and I do not feel that would be warranted in this case. MrOllie (talk) 22:34, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Whiplash

Hello, I saw your edits. I do apologies, as I can see how they may have looked like an advertisement. That was not my intention.

The Whiplash Medicine page as some good content, however it is very outdated.

The injury mechanism is now known and has been known since 1997.

Grauer, Jonathan N. MD*; Panjabi, Manohar M. PhD*; Cholewicki, Jacek PhD*; Nibu, Kimio MD†; Dvorak, Jiri MD‡* Whiplash Produces an S-Shaped Curvature of the Neck With Hyperextension at Lower Levels, Spine: November 1, 1997 - Volume 22 - Issue 21 - p 2489-2494

This statement is not true: While there is broad consensus that acute whiplash is not uncommon, the topic of chronic whiplash is controversial, with studies in at least three countries showing zero to low prevalence, and some academics positing a linkage to financial issues.

Research: Conclusion Whiplash injury patients have long-term residual symptoms; mainly pins and needles sensation in their limbs, headache, and dizziness. Increasing age and low back pain are bad prognostic factors. (40.7%) were still symptomatic 10 years after injury Article Information Volume: 17 issue: 2, page(s): 77-81 Article first published online: December 1, 2013; Issue published: December 1, 2013 El-Sallakh Sameh, El-Rosasy Mahmoud, Mohamed M.M. Mohamed, P. Mifsud Rooney a Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Tanta, Tanta University Hospital, Tanta, Egypt b Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, Russells Hall Hospital, Dudley DY1 2HQ, UK There are about 80 such articles I can provide.

In fact a 15 year study by Squires shows over 70% with chronic pain, and a 30 year study shows over 50%

Diagnosis:

Under diagnosis the Quebec Task Force is listed. This is very outdated. It was published in the journal of Spine in 1995, after review of literature from 1991-1993. This was 4 years before the injury mechanism was discovered at Yale Medical School. The publication was approved by one medical reviewer that allowed publication in the journal that was endorsed by a handful of spinal associations, no universities or schools.

My Whiplash Guidelines, attached, however, are based on up to date research and have been approved through peer review of several medical and chiropractic universities continuing education boards. Since my guidelines have only been published in post graduate continuing education (which makes them part of the medical literature), I would like to ask what evidence you require so that they can be published on this site.

If you go to my website, TorontoPainDoctor.com, you can click on 3 of the 4 current academic institutions links to see my program has been approved and accredited. In addition, at the bottom right you will see a button that states, Whiplash Related Injury Guide, which will show a PDF of my published guidelines.

I would really like to update your page to be consistent with the current literature, but would appreciate some direction as to not upload something that will just be taken down.

Thank you for your time and consideration. --WhiplashDr (talk) 22:10, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia has specific guidelines for medical content, which you can read at WP:MEDRS. We need systematic reviews for this sort of change, and we cannot use your personal website. - MrOllie (talk) 22:31, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Head louse infestations website by Kosta Y. Mumcuoglu

Dear Mr./Ms. MrOllie, Yeas ago I completely revised the pages on the three human lice: head, body and pubic in Wikipedia. Several months ago I added a link to a website on Head Louse Infestations (https://head-louse.net/) which was immediately rejected by Mr. Ahmedtii and perhaps also by you. As I wrote to Mr. Ahmedtii, I am working for the last 40 years or so with subjects related to human lice, published over 60 scientific papers on the subject, I was the president of the International Society on Phthiraptera, and I wrote together with other world specialists on: Mumcuoglu KY, Pollack RJ, Reed DL, Barker SC, Gordon S, Toloza AC, Picollo MI, Taylan-Ozkan A, Chosidow O, Habedank B, Ibarra J, Meinking TL, Vander Stichele RH. International recommendations for an effective control of head louse infestations. Int J Dermatol. 2021 Mar;60(3):272-280. doi: 10.1111/ijd.15096. Based on my experience (I examined with my group over 15,000 children for head lice and I have for the last 40 years a body louse in my laboratory (Parasitology Unit, Dept. of Microbiology, The Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School, Jerusalem, Israel). My website is written in English and Hebrew and soon will be also translated to Turkish. I think that many people could profit from my page as how to better find a solution for a head louse infestation in the family. I request from you to leave the link in the "External Links" of the the page on head lice. Best Regards Prof. Kosta Y. Mumcuoglu, PhD — Preceding unsigned comment added by KostaMumcuoglu (talkcontribs) 04:50, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have left a collection of policy links on your user talk page. Please read them - in general you should never link to your own website on Wikipedia. - MrOllie (talk) 13:44, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

REVERTING CHANGES WHERE CITATIONS WERE NEEDED

Hi MrOllie, I changed a few links which were not accessible and also added a few links as a reference where citations were needed. The links added were from official sources of YouTube Music Award. Did you check the links before reverting the changes and considering them as spam? Thanks User_talk:Khurshid.sherani — Preceding undated comment added 08:27, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Blogs, vendor sites, and other self published sources are not usable references, see WP:RS. Please use only good references, such as academic journals or major news sites from now on. MrOllie (talk) 10:50, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My edit on ‪Coin catalog‬ was reverted.

Hello MrOllie, I saw you reverted a small edit on this page. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Coin_catalog One was a grammar mistake, "which" instead of "that". What was the reason to revert this? The other one was a reference that is a commercial website. If this reference is not acceptable, shouldn't the other external reference to a commercial website be deleted as well? Best Regards, Strato 129.132.204.212 (talk) 15:16, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If you are aware of other improper links, they should be removed, yes. MrOllie (talk) 15:25, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thank you. I was refering to the other external ref on the same page. I've removed it now, hope it's okay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stratocaster47 (talkcontribs)

Yo No one is paying me haha I'm just making stuff better — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.12.221.1 (talk) 00:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edits to Enterprise Architecture page

Hello Mr. Ollie

I see that you are a very active Wikipedia editor and let me start by thanking you for your contribution to our favorite online information resource. It is because of the volunteer efforts of people like you that Wikipedia is one of the most valuable and trusted information sources on the web.

My name is Nick Malik. I'm an internationally known expert in Enterprise Architecture. I used to be a regular contributor to Wikipedia, especially on the pages related to Enterprise Architecture, Business Process Management, and Enterprise IT systems design but largely stopped in the 2015 timeframe when I started a company (Vanguard EA). I felt that my role as CEO would be too much of a conflict of interest and backed away.

Well that was many years ago and the company is long defunct. I was asked by a friend to come take a look at the Enterprise Architecture page and saw that it has fallen into some disrepair in the past few years. The citations are to less useful or self serving sources, and some of the information is out of date (especially references to the now defunct Federal Enterprise Architecture efforts).

Most specifically for this message, the Enterprise Architecture page as a tag stating that more citations are needed. Some folks have tried to fill in that need with citation spam and you have removed those links. However, other citations are actually useful and I'd like to be able to use one or two of them, so that we can ultimately remove that citation tag from the article. I'd also like to work on the style and formatting of the article to allow us to remove the style tag for too many lists.

I'm dropping you this note to make sure that you see my efforts, not as a spammer but as a former Wikipedia contributor who'd like to provide some improvement to a small set of pages for which I have expertise. Let me know if you have any concerns. Nickmalik (talk) 18:01, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
