Talk:Subtle realism

Original research
Multiple times you have removed tags marking original research problems without fixing the problems that the tags marked. This suggests that you don't understand Wikipedia's policy of no original research. Writing a Wikipedia article is not like writing the kind of academic essay that you appear to be accustomed to writing. Notably in the present context, we cannot make original claims or arguments in Wikipedia's voice; all claims and arguments have to be attributable to a source. I have removed the sentences from which you inappropriately removed the Synthesis inline tags. The sentences should only be restored with a source that explicitly makes the claim or argument.

Without sources that explicitly make the claims and arguments that you have presented, you are just cobbling together various sources to build your own original argument expressing your own point of view, which is prohibited in Wikipedia. I suspect that you are Martyn Hammersley writing an article about a term that you invented yourself, which is even more problematic on Wikipedia. Biogeographist (talk) 11:27, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Hammersley
I just did some background research and subtle realism is a term that is widely associated with Hammersley's name in the literature, and the lead of this article should reflect that. I have added some relevant sources, and there are many other sources that say essentially the same. Biogeographist (talk) 14:15, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
