Talk:Jayant S. Vaidya

Untitled
Hi. The profile page was created by me and is still incomplete to an extent. I have copied most of these details from either the individual's own website or his university page. Over the next few days, I will attempt to replace the sources closest to the clinician with verifiable third party sources. Deepakshilkar (talk) 01:38, 16 February 2021 (UTC) DS
 * Clearly you shouldn't have copied anything from the sources, hope you didn't mean that? Also, the referencing needs to be improved pretty soon, because as it stands, the article is a prime candidate for deletion since it does not meet notability or even basic verifiability standards. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:44, 16 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Sure. Until then, is it possible to take the page "Offline"? I have found some reference that were not related to the clinician. However, it might take a day or so to actually read and prepare a write-up.

 * I've moved this to drafts, where it's safe(r). Cheers, --DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:35, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you and a few concerns
Dear all,

Thank you very much for approving the page. I'm so glad that my first major contribution to Wikipedia is live. I spent countless hours reading and researching about the topic and I'm happy that a lot of it has seen the light of the day.

However, I have a few issues with the content that has gone online or edited at a later stage. I believe that the editing and proofreading team hasn't spent enough time going through the article. As a result, some important sections such as the career of the scientist have been deleted from the profile.

A user has mentioned that Daily Mail should not be used as a reference on the page. Thank you very much for flagging this supposedly incorrect citation of Daily Mail in the profile. However, I think that the use of Daily Mail citations is allowed in exceptional cases. The article I cited was a patient testimony by a famous personality, Kirsty Lang. Kirsty Lang is a British journalist and broadcaster who works for BBC Radio and Television. Should her testimony be considered unreliable just because she published in Daily Mail? I do not think so.

Some users have also questioned neutrality the writer. I think just adding the tag may not do the job. They may have to cite the reasons why they think the neutrality should be questioned. I've been following Dr Vaidya’s work for several years, and his breakthroughs in the recent years inspired me to create a profile for him.
