User talk:V0db

Welcome!

Hello, V0db, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Reliable sources for medicine related claims[edit]

See WP:MEDRS. Yobol (talk) 22:12, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So this USA Dr. Mohammad Ali Al-Bayati, PhD, DABT, DABVT, Toxicologist & Pathologist... is not a reliable source? V0db 22:43, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

That's right. He's an Iraqi veterinarian and an AIDS denialist whose POV is not shared by the mainstream scientific community, and he has never presented any research on the matter that overturns the current state of evidence. Within that community there is no controversy over the cause of AIDS and it's relation to HIV, and fortunately there are very few real scientists who disagree. One could even posit that their persistence in denying the evidence makes them pseudoscientists and cranks. Since medical claims in ALL articles here must use sources that pass our WP:MEDRS guideline, he is not considered a RS. His POV would only be allowable on a page documenting his own views, IOW a biography about him, but never to make statements of fact about the current state of scientific knowledge about HIV/AIDS. -- Brangifer (talk) 02:34, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you have specific questions about sourcing for a particular page, take it to the talk page of that article. For instance, the talk page for the Christine Maggiore article is here.Yobol (talk) 02:02, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit-warring[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Christine Maggiore. Users who edit disruptively or refuse to collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue. In particular the three-revert rule states that making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the talk page to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording and content that gains consensus among editors. If unsuccessful then do not edit war even if you believe you are right. Post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.
