User talk:Aleena Shahid 123

Hello, I'm Yoshi24517. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to Diet in diabetes because they seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you.

 * Okay. I didn't know that. Aleena Shahid 123 (talk) 08:06, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Diet in diabetes. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Although you added text beneath your blog link, it lacks WP:BALANCE as the primary research is not as definitive as your text would suggest. Oblivy (talk) 07:34, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Diabetes, you may be blocked from editing. Cannolis (talk) 10:39, 27 April 2023 (UTC)


 * So what is the criteria to add the knowledge. And why mayo clinic is allowed to do alterations in Wikipedia. Here is the link:
 * https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/diabetes/symptoms-causes/syc-20371444

 * There are a lot of resources to help you understand what is a WP:Reliable Source. The specific one here is WP:BLOG.
 * Blogs are generally not considered reliable sources. Anyone can publish a blog, and they can be filled with guesses, false information, or even disinformation. Therefore, it should be a rare that a blog is used as a source for a Wikipedia article. If the blog author tells you where the information comes from, you can research that source and cite to it. And if they don't tell you, then how do you know it can be trusted?
 * If you are the blog author, then you should read WP:OR and WP:LINKFARM as well.
 * Your question about Mayo Clinic is a good one. They are probably best considered a secondary source, since they are not doing the research themselves, they are independent from the research, and many people think they are reliable. Oblivy (talk) 12:36, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
