Information icon Hello, I'm SummerPhDv2.0. I noticed that you recently removed content from The Martian (film) without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

I forgot to add the summary of changes to that specific edit but since then I've added an edit with the summary of changes. Many thanks. Wikieditor1377 (talk) 18:46, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Raw foodism. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. You appear to be soapboxing (WP:SOAP) and edit warring (WP:WAR) to establish your own opinion, without citing reliable scientific sources or gaining consensus on the talk page - see WP:CON. Raw foodism is related to diet and nutrition, so is a topic bordering on human health, which requires the strongest possible medical references, WP:MEDRS.

Thanks. I basically used harvard food source link backed by numerous book references within, other reference was from oxford university. That is definitely a reliable scientific source, much more reliable actually than most of the ones currently being used on that page. Wikieditor1377 (talk) 15:41, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
On my user page, you said:

I've seen your edit on raw foodism page. Actually the effect of cooking or exposure to heat is the primary idea behind raw foodism so they are clearly within the topic. Loss or destruction of water soluble vitamins, specially vitamin C, is a widely known effect cooking has on food and it's missing from the page. There are known carcinogens missing from the page as well.[1] [2]

As a fad diet, raw foodism is probably not chosen on scientific evidence of nutrient loss - its' a fad: people jump on the bandwagon to follow unscientific beliefs. It's impossible to define in an encyclopedic way why people choose this diet. Some users believe food enzyme destruction by cooking is a primary motivation, one that ignores the natural destruction of food protein (some enzymes) in the acid and digestive enzyme environment of the stomach. No WP:MEDRS reviews exist to prove reasons for the practice, or its possible health effects. Your comment above is about cooking, which is not a primary element of raw foodism practice. We don't offer advice about cooking effects, WP:NOTADVICE, and we don't use Healthline as an authority source for the encyclopedia (its topics may be written by non-experts). As the cancer.gov source says, it's "high-temperature" cooking that may produce carcinogens, but that effect can't be precisely measured from person to person or cooking method to method. No reliable review exists to warrant going into depth in the article about cooking or carcinogens. Again, your edits and comments indicate you are soapboxing against cooked food; see WP:SOAP. You could edit the Cooking article, as long as statements are supported by high-quality sources. Zefr (talk) 22:06, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Raw foodism was practiced by the entire human race for millions of years and is practiced by almost 100% of other species on the planet. Not cooking, roasting or using other means of exposing nutrients to heat is actually the main element of raw foodism, hence the word "raw" there.
