Please do not add or change content, as you did at Phytochemistry, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Please don't use speculation from a dubious source that does not meet the standards of WP:MEDRS. Zefr (talk) 03:24, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Phytochemistry. Read WP:MEDRS and WP:WHYMEDRS, after which you can add constructively to the article with high-quality MEDRS reviews, if they exist (they don't). Zefr (talk) 23:20, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I apologize for my disruptive edits, it is by no means my intent. I have read WP:MEDRS and WP:WHYMEDRS and was hoping you could provide more clarification on the problem with my edit, specifically if it was the statements I made or the source I used? If this is the wrong place to ask for this please let me know, and again I apologize for my previous edits. I appreciate your assistance. Bpitts13 (talk) 21:29, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Briefly, you and your apparent colleague,, 1) appear to be promoting the terms, "functional foods" (your affiliated article proposals have been declined; see WP:PROMO), 2) have repeatedly used a dubious non-MEDRS source, FFHD, in several articles, 3) have reinserted edits that were reverted without making your case on the talk page (WP:DE), and 4) have used misleading primary lab research, such as this edit, which referred to rat studies and potential anti-inflammatory properties, both of which do not derive from a MEDRS source. Rat studies and weak speculation from unreliable journals are unencyclopedic. Just a simple rule of thumb: any journal or article that claims anti-disease "benefits" from a food source is a WP:REDFLAG. Zefr (talk) 22:35, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the response and the clarification. Bpitts13 (talk) 20:08, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Help me!
I was hoping to get some help identifying primary sources. I have had a couple edits removed with the comment saying I used primary sources, but I thought the citations I was using were review articles and therefore secondary sources. Here is one of the articles I am referring to. I appreciate any clarification on why it would be considered a primary source, thank you. Bpitts13 (talk) 23:00, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Your edit posted the conclusions of the study in the link you provided; that's a primary source. If someone independent of the study writes about the study, that is a secondary(and permitted) source.  The editor who removed your edit also cited WP:MEDRS. 331dot (talk) 10:51, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
