Welcome to Wikipedia from the Medicine WikiProject!


Welcome to Wikipedia from WikiProject Medicine (also known as WPMED). We're a group of editors who strive to improve the quality of medical articles here on Wikipedia. One of our members has noticed that you are interested in editing medical articles; it's great to have a new interested editor on board. In your wiki-voyages, a few things that may be relevant to editing Wikipedia articles are:


 * Thanks for coming aboard! We always appreciate a new editor. Feel free to leave us a message at any time on our talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. Please leave a message on the WPMED talk page if you have any problems, suggestions, would like review of an article, need suggestions for articles to edit, or would like some collaboration when editing!
 * Sourcing of medical and health-related content on Wikipedia is guided by our medical sourcing guidelines, commonly referred to as MEDRS. These guidelines typically require recent secondary sources to support information; their application is further explained here. Primary sources (case studies, case reports, research studies) are rarely used, especially if the primary sources are produced by the organisation or individual who is promoting a claim.
 * The Wikipedia community includes a wide variety of editors with different interests, skills, and knowledge. We all manage to get along through a lot of discussion that happens under the scenes and through the bold, revert, discuss editing cycle. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss them on an article's talk page or post a message on the WPMED talk page.

Feel free to drop a note on my talk page if you have any problems. I wish you all the best on your wiki voyages! Zefr (talk) 14:35, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to VO2 max. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Zefr (talk) 14:35, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
 * If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at VO2 Max, you may be blocked from editing. Zefr (talk) 13:35, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

 * I am honestly not sure what you are trying to accomplish by repeatedly deleting my contribution, and accusing me of disruptive editing. Where is the promotion? Where is the puffery? Was there even a superlative used? If there was, delete that, not the entire contribution. Literally millions of people are introduced to measuring fitness in terms of VO2max via wearable devices. This is how they work. This is the method that they rely on to provide that information. The fact that multiple competing brands are using the same licensed methodology is factually relevant and referring to it as such provides a direction for those seeking more detailed information on the subject.

 * This removed edit reflects 1) an unestablished method (a 2012 patent application, not approved or in wide use 8 years later, likely means a failed patent application) and 2) FirstBeat is a commercial site, is not a reliable WP:SECONDARY source, and is promotional; read WP:PROMO - the DCrainmaker site is also promotional. If this was a valid, widely used method, experts would be writing reviews about it - see WP:SCIRS and, since VO2 max is a medical topic, read WP:MEDRS or play the video in the upper right. Continuing to make such promotional edits will get you blocked from editing. --Zefr (talk) 15:26, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
