Best sources[edit]

Hello, ProtonMan10, and thank you for your contributions. Unfortunately, I think that some of your recent edits might get reverted. Because we've had a lot of problems with some people cherry-picking individual studies to prove a point, we try to stick with "secondary" sources, such as systematic reviews, meta-analyses, literature review articles, textbooks, and the like. I know it can be frustrating for WP:Expert editors, but most Wikipedia editors aren't able to distinguish between good research and others.

Some academics seem to find Wikipedia:Ten simple rules for editing Wikipedia useful in understanding how things work. Also, I invite you to join Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine. Its 'Talk' page is a good place to ask questions and get help. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:03, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
