Talk:Imleria badia

Comments
Formerly Xerocomus? More like, formerly Boletus. Someone please change the data to Xerocomus badius. It's what's accepted nowadays worldwide.

MEDRS issues
WP:MEDRS is clear about the use of secondary sources to establish the notability of any medically relevant claim: "When citing primary sources, particular care must be taken to adhere to Wikipedia's undue weight policy. Secondary sources should be used to determine due weight." Consider this statement from the article: "In laboratory experiments, extracts of Boletus badius fruit bodies have been shown to have significant antioxidative properties in vitro." Why is this worth inclusion in the article? What secondary sources show that the in vitro antioxidative properties of Boletus badius are notable? The same applies to the two claims in the last sentence of the same paragraph. It's disingenuous to include preliminary, in vitro information and not expect some readers to conclude that it would be good for their health to eat this fungus. At the very least it should be stated that there is no reliable evidence of health benefits. Peter coxhead (talk) 16:54, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I replaced a primary with a secondary source for the antioxidant properties, and removed the 2010 Scottish study that found antimicrobial activity. I kept the in vitro antitumor activity, as it was already cited to a secondary source. Sasata (talk) 19:18, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Although I'm still not entirely convinced the article meets WP:MEDRS standards (which an FA should), I'm not a "hawk" on MEDRS issues, and it's certainly better sourced now. Peter coxhead (talk) 14:20, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
