Do you have sources?

Thanks for your contributions to Embryo donation! It looks like a useful addition, showing that many parents would like to donate their leftover embryos for research purposes. Do you have a source for the information, though? For example, it would be great to have the name of the Swedish study, the researchers who worked on it, and the journal it was published in. Similar sources for the other statements would also be very helpful. Even a newspaper article that mentioned the figures would be better than nothing.

Without sources, anyone who wants to can remove the information on the grounds that it is not verifiable. Especially on a controversial topic for which some people might want to cover up positive information, it's therefore very important to have reliable sources to back up the information you added! --Icarus ^(Hi!) 02:19, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
