User talk:Carterand

Welcome!
Hello, Carterand, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:23, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

MEDRS
Please obey WP:MEDRS. tgeorgescu (talk) 23:11, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Again: please obey WP:MEDRS. Your sources are found wanting. tgeorgescu (talk) 02:09, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

 * This does not make any sense and is not specific enough. Why is my content being removed? Carterand (talk) 20:05, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
 * When you're editing on medical topics there are stricter rules for sourcing. Those rules are outlined in WP:MEDRS. For example, this source is a blog post from a private medical practice. That is not a reliable source in general, and doubly so for medical topics. This source is an article from a non-profit advocacy group, which is only reliable for the views of that group. You'll see that in that source they reference journal articles. Those articles are more along the lines of what we need, but you would need to make sure they meet the MEDRS sourcing guidelines.
 * Also, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but each article has a talk page. That is where improvements to The article and contested changes are discussed. Some editors have started a discussion at Talk:Opposition to pornography about your edits. You should discuss your proposed changes there.
 * I know this is a lot to take in, and if you have any questions feel free to reach out. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:02, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
