Please do not add or change content, as you did at Friends of Science in Medicine, without citing a reliable source using an inline citation that clearly supports the material. The burden is on the person wishing to keep in the material to meet these requirements, as a necessary (but not always sufficient) condition. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. 172.56.39.190 (talk) 05:04, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

See chiropractic

Lots of references to pseudomedicine. Jim1138 (talk) 05:08, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did with this edit to Alternative medicine. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Jim1138 (talk) 05:08, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

This has been hashed out over and over. Please see talk:chiropractic and check out the archives. Jim1138 (talk) 05:09, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

Verifiability

Per wp:verifiability (wp:v), Wikipedia goes by what wp:reliable sources state. In the case of medical information, by what reliable medical sources state - wp:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) (RSMED) Jim1138 (talk) 05:25, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
