Proposed deletion of Human photosynthesis[edit]

The article Human photosynthesis has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:GNG with only a single source that addresses the subject directly. (A 2011 paper from the "Human Photosynthesis Study Center".) Unsourced anecdotal claims that a long-distance swimmer with a suntan was probably photosynthesising seem a WP:REDFLAG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

October 2015[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Human photosynthesis, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. McGeddon (talk) 07:53, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
