The PLoS ONE article
Hi Vaidyabio, I am sorry that I amreverting your edits. This has nothing to do with the statements not being true or that I somehow wouldn't like this (I'm an Academic Editor of PLoS ONE myself). It has everything to do with Wikipedia policies. Please take a moment to go through the links that have been posted above, they will explain a lot. I hope you'll stay and continue editing, the PLoS ONE article and many other scientific journal articles are currently not very good and could be much improved. However, it does not help to put in statements that are unsourced or that constitute original research. You're probably a scientist, like myself, and research probably comes natural to you, too. But WP is an encyclopedia and "OR" is completely banned and not allowed. So you need to find a reliable source that says these things and then cite the source (and do that as a reference, that's the agreed-upon WP style, see the Manual of Style. Hope this explains my actions, let me know if I can be of any help. --Crusio (talk) 18:58, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Samir K. Brahmachari. Thank you. Ironholds (talk) 11:42, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
