Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.

Happy editing! Cheers, Roxy the dog 08:23, 28 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi Roxy,
 * Good to see your message. I recently added content on the medical research part of turmeric. The content included a well thorough study. In the field of medical research there have been a lot of studies undertaken that provide evidence for turmeric's medical potential. All the reference paper i preferred belongings to a trustworthy database like NCBI, Scopus and so on. If you prefer to cited references the number of citations are also high. There are millions of research undertaken since 2015, with a strong evidence of turmeric having anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-cancer properties and cited accordingly. I have added my content in Medical research part, because it can be clearly understood that a lots of potential research was done, with many sets of experiments and with a positive result of turmeric's medical use. Even in turmeric article, it is been mentioned that in Ayurveda there has been a wide use of turmeric for so long. If you ask any layman, what should be applied for a wound his first answer would be turmeric. In the modern period, where turmeric medical potential has been tested many times, I am very much confused with you reverting back my piece. I am ready to cite more articles with very strong evidence, though whatever references I have cited is having a good number of citations and well studied. Kindly, let me know what changes should be done in the content I submitted. Thank you, DWKGKB (talk) 04:39, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia articles are written from the mainstream scientific point of view, what we call a "Neutral Point of View" or NPOV. This means that we reflect what "Reliable sources" say on a subject. WP:RS is our sourcing policy on ordinary articles, but we have a special policy on biomedical areas called WP:MEDRS of which this is obviously one. Your sources do not meet that requirement, and so I removed that contribution as unreliably sourced.
 * Your question, "Kindly, let me know what changes should be done in the content I submitted" can be answered by finding WP:MEDRS sources that support what you want to say. I very much doubt that you will be able to find such sources, as editors have searched hard over the years for such sources, unsuccessfully. -Roxy the dog 07:03, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
 * You can find such sources; Ideal sources for biomedical information include: review articles (especially systematic reviews) published in reputable medical journals; academic and professional books written by experts in the relevant fields and from respected publishers; and guidelines or position statements from national or international expert bodies. Primary sources should generally not be used for medical content, as such sources often include unreliable or preliminary information; for example, early lab results which don't hold in later clinical trials.

See the reliable sources noticeboard for questions about reliability of specific sources, and feel free to ask at WikiProjects such as WikiProject Medicine and WikiProject Pharmacology. All the best RV (talk) 13:11, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
