Welcome![edit]

Hello, DarkyT, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Jake Lloyd Jones, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

References[edit]

Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:33, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Doc James, does this mean we can't mention Dr Siegel's research results at all or is there some other way to do that? DarkyT (talk) 00:40, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You need to use high quality secondary sources. The question is are any avaliable? I have not looked yet.

Matthew Everingham moved to draftspace[edit]

Thanks for your contributions to Matthew Everingham. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and Needs rewritten and more sourcing and tone fixes. Seems to be mostly unsourced. Its a real mess. . I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. scope_creep^Talk 15:44, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
