Please don't reinstate unsourced material
All material in our articles must be WP:VERIFIABLE, that's fundamental policy. If you can source it, great, but read WP:RS first. Otherwise please don't put it back. It's one of those things new editors usually don't realise - just like they usually don't (I didn't) know about our no original research policy. Your edit at Cantino Planisphere didn't actually make it less Eurocentric - see my edit summaries. I think I've fixed it be both accurate and at least less Eurocentric.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Cantino Planisphere, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 20:00, 4 March 2016 (UTC)


 * To clarify. Sources must discuss the subject of the article. The only source you added does not, and doesn't even discuss coastal mapping. The article now suggests that there might be non-European earlier maps of the Portuguese explorations. Where's your source for that? You mean well I'm sure but I don't think you understand what you are writing and you certainly don't understand our policies and guidelines. Doug Weller  talk 20:02, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Cantino Planisphere. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted or removed. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. ''Please stop this. I've explained about sources - you are misusing that source as it doesn't discuss the Cantino Planisphere, and there are no non-European maps of the explorations - how could there be? They had to be made by someone on board or what - a helicopter following them?'' Doug Weller  talk 07:12, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Welcome to Wikipedia from the Medicine Wikiproject!


Welcome to Wikipedia from Wikiproject Medicine (also known as WPMED). We're a group of editors who strive to improve the quality of medical articles here on Wikipedia. One of our members has noticed that you are interested in editing medical articles; it's great to have a new interested editor on board. In your wiki-voyages, a few things that may be relevant to editing Wikipedia articles are:


 * Thanks for coming aboard! We always appreciate a new editor. Feel free to leave us a message at any time on our talk page. If you are interested in joining the project yourself, there is a participant list where you can sign up. Please leave a message on the WPMED talk page if you have any problems, suggestions, would like review of an article, need suggestions for articles to edit, or would like some collaboration when editing!
 * Sourcing of medical and health-related content on Wikipedia is guided by our medical sourcing guidelines, commonly referred to as MEDRS. These guidelines typically requires recent secondary sources to support information; its application is further explained here. Primary sources (case studies, case reports, research studies) are rarely used, especially if the primary sources are produced by the organisation or individual who is promoting a claim.
 * The Wikipedia community includes a wide variety of editors with different interests, skills, and knowledge. We all manage to get along through a lot of discussion that happens under the scenes and through the bold, edit, discuss editing cycle. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss it on an article's talk page or post a message on the WPMED talk page.

Feel free to drop a note on my talk page if you have any problems. I wish you all the best on your wiki voyages! Carl Fredrik  💌 📧 15:58, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
