Propolis edit
I reverted this edit because all the functions in the bioactivities column are speculations derived from in vitro research. This is misleading and fails to meet the guide for sourcing medical content explained in WP:MEDRS.

The considerable effort you provided for creating the table is readily seen. Unfortunately, the sources you used would mislead readers into believing anti-disease effects of these compounds exist, when no MEDRS sources (and no reputable clinical research) support such conclusions.

It would be better to have one encompassing review article just identifying the compounds in propolis without suggesting they have medicinal properties, and therefore, there is no real need for a table. I know this topic and the review literature quite well, and don't believe a quality review exists. Zefr (talk) 04:36, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Synthesis on Wikipedia
As you are a new editor, I want to make you aware of WP:SYNTH. In your table here, you identify a chemical that may be in propolis (better sourcing needed, such as a WP:SCIRS review), then assign a source in the far right column implying a clinical (or anti-disease) effect that has never specifically been proven as a propolis effect.

In simple terms, you used a compound isolation finding paired with an unrelated in vitro reference to suggest a clinical effect of propolis.

This is "original research" or synthesis of results to reach an unwarranted conclusion that would mislead a common user of the encyclopedia. Zefr (talk) 04:47, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
