Talk:Selmedica

Reason for Article

I think truth be told, a place like wikipedia is a perfect place to set a precedent for documenting articles for information purposes on the major credit card, and internet fraud scams that exist. When a scam involves exploiting individuals and their health problems, I think that crosses the line, and the public should be informed as fairly as possible about these scams, before they make a decision to try these products. I think it is well known, that we live in a marketing world today and it is time to start informing the public as much as possible about these such scams, for the goodness of all.

for an article like this, every sentence of accusation must be documented by a reliable published source. I rewording the invective. It does not help make the case. Facts do; documented facts from reliable reporters. BBB is usable. so are newspapers. so are FDA reports, though only for what they say. Postings on website are not. Customer reviews on websites or ebay or amazon are not. I recognize the undoubted righteousness of the case, but we cannot do things this way.

I have revised the language so it looks like an encyclopedia article. I have temporarily retained ripoffreport, pending a discussion at WP:RS. But I note that the value of scattered incident reports is very low. I do not think they are usable, unless you can show that they are representative, and vouched for by responsible authorities.

If you want this article to stay, it must be reasonable. I have added a number of "fact" tags, and there must be specific references for them in published sources or the statements must be removed or reworded. I will help you make as a good an article as possible on this. Good, by our cold-blooded, neutral, and therefore encyclopedic standards.DGG (talk) 04:00, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I am looking for more sources as an ongoing process. The note from about.com, I had hesitatedly added, as about.com is generally a true source of info. Moreso, the Medical Review Board: including an array of Doctors and specialists review the article before it is posted. I think this is very credible, so I kept it on. If there is a bigger picture I am not seeing then I apologize, and it should come done. Thatopshotta (talk) 07:25, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Regarding this edit

Regarding this edit, the source provided makes no mention of Selmedica. seicer | talk | contribs 20:20, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

agreed. I think that was there to provide further reference on the characteristics of internet health fraud practices. And was about the vast majority of the characteristics to describe Selmedica, as that is what they do.Thatopshotta (talk) 10:54, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Neutrality Resolved

There is no neutrality issue here. Every sentance has been cited by Federal and local documents. There is no dispute regarding syntax or tone. If a user has a personal problem with the information or they simply do not like it, they must deal with that issue personally and not dispute cited materials. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mivvr (talk • contribs) 20:44, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Please watch this subject

This page appears to be under attack by interested parties seeking to bury Perry Belcher's criminal past and conviction for performing Internet-assisted fraud on desperate people in a vulnerable frame of mind. There appears to be a concerted effort by single-use, anonymous and retired accounts to delete and deface all references to Belcher's conviction for fraud, imitating a health care professional, practicing medicine without a license, mail order fraud, wire fraud, forgery and various other felony offenses and the Federal order dissolving the company as a legal entity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.202.233.211 (talk) 19:47, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
