We go by the sources

re your edit [1]. Since we follow the sources, the "neutral" version is "commercial" as the sources clearly talk about the financial aspect and not anything at all about it being "clinical" (other than the fact that it happens in a building called a "clinic".) -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:39, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

i did look it up in our sources, and our sources do not call it "clinical", our sources talk about the commercial aspect. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:43, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You are the one who is NOT following the sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:51, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

and my request is the source used in the article "At the junction of desperation and the fantasies of science is a business opportunity. Stem cell clinics offering unproven therapies for a range of diseases have become a multimillion-dollar industry, ... (Rader) said he has arranged more than 1,000 injections, charging $25,000 for the initial treatment and $8,500 for each follow-up." Commercial, NOT clinical. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:54, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

At Wikipedia, the "correct usage" is the context of the sources. In this case the correct word is "commercial". -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:58, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There is nothing even potentially "libelous" about saying that someone is not breaking US law. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom

February 2013

Your recent editing history at William C. Rader shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
