Copying from other websites
Hi, and thanks for your first try at editing Wikipedia! Please note that copying text from other websites (while it is legally permitted in this case, as the FDA website is public domain), is bad style. Try to read Phentermine/topiramate, as it is now, from the point of view of a layman: It contains a very long paragraph with lots of technical terms, abbreviations, numbers, letters, etc. The effective information for anyone but a trained healthcare professional is "The FDA are concerned about this drug and want the manufacturer to do any number of things".

I'd suggest deleting your addition, re-reading the approval letter, and adding the information you thing a layman will want to know, and will be able to understand, to the Wikipedia article, in your own words. This will be a lot more work, but will tremendously improve the quality of your edit(s).

Please feel free to contact me if you need any help. Cheers, and happy editing, ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 19:30, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
