Electronic cigarette article
Hello Owen Engle, and thank you for trying to add helpful information to the Electronic cigarettes article. I am also a relatively new editor but I believe that the Cigarettes365 link you left may not be a "reliable source" in the strictest Wikipedia definition. If you haven't already, I would suggest checking out WP:SCHOLARSHIP especially the parts that talk about verifiability and the peer-review process. I think the main reason your link may get contested is the fact that the website does not really offer any information about who conducted the survey, so we have no idea whether they are an expert in the field or if there were any safeguards when conducting the survey. It's always good to assume good faith but in this case the source could be viewed as questionable and will probably get removed again.

This message is purely informational and I'd really like to work this out with you so that we can both understand the process better. You can open a thread at WP:RSN or post on the talk page of the article to discuss this with more seasoned editors to ensure the survival of your edit, if you're interested. I hope this helps.
