[edit] Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button Image:Signature_icon.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 22:18, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Benzo and PubMed abstract edits

I've noticed your edits/reverts and have some sympathy. The editor(s) (for there appear to be several operating under different accounts but with very similar editing patterns) appear to be working in good faith but in ignorance of the problems of using (a) just abstracts and (b) primary sources (i.e., not review papers but stuff like animal studies). I encourage you to get an account here to aid further discussion. If I get a chance tomorrow, I'll ask for some help at the Drug/Medicine wikiprojects. It is late here so that's all for now.

[edit] talk page of chlordiazepoxide

Hi,

Can you look at the talk page of chlordiazepoxide and clonazepam if you haven't already. You are continuing to remove edits without discussing them first!--Stilldoggy (talk) 05:57, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Temazepam, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 23:38, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Triazolam, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Jmlk17 02:37, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Leave me alone now

Please please leave me alone now!!! Stop harassing me, following me and spreading lies about me. Don't send me anymore messages. I have done nothing to deserve this from you!!! Please find something else to obsess about rather than me and my edits. Quit accusing me of edits that had nothing to do with me. Just move on!!!--Literaturegeek (talk) 05:54, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Assuming good faith and staying cool

[edit] Edits to benzodiazepine articles

OK, it's time to take a break. I agree that there is a lot of questionably relevant information in many of these articles (e.g. heavy reliance on animal studies) and many of them appear "inflated", but you are not going about this the right way. You are currently edit warring with several users in several articles. Edits such as these ([1], [2]) are also unacceptable: they violate Wikipedia policy on original research, and include personal opinion ("It is questionable if these experiments have any relevance for human pharmacology, or any relevance at all.") You have tried removing information, and other editors have reverted; qualifying statements you perceive as erroneous or irrelevant in the article will get you nowhere. Instead, please try to obtain other editors' input on trimming the article and any particular content you think doesn't belong; they may agree, disagree, or have even stronger opinions than you do, but Wikipedia works on consensus, and right now, there is nothing even remotely close to that in any of these articles. I recommend both you and Literaturegeek step away from them for a few days and come back with a fresh outlook. We have a Medicine project where you can ask editors for their opinions—again, second, third, and fourth opinions are definitely something you should pursue.

I just carried over the figures from his reference, in mg/kg. This is an extreme dosis in a fast metabolizer like rat. The questionable relevance of conclusions of such experiments is known. No original research or opinion involved, just his references, copied that into the article. 70.137.178.160 (talk) 16:50, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

There is now some talk on WT:MED and WT:PHARM (medical and pharmacological forums, respectively) where there is concern about the wiki-wide discussion about the benzodiazepine article series. I have certainly not followed the entire exchange, but I agree that much of the present content is very heavy on possible harms while downplaying the clinical uses of this group of pharmaca. This is not typical for the benzo articles - many other psychoactive substances have similar laundry lists of mayhem.

I don't routinely monitor the articles in question, but I could certainly assist in challenging particular conceptions that underly this phenomenon. Please give me a buzz on my talkpage if this is needed. I would strongly recommend getting a username; at the moment everyone can see that you're editing from Texas.
