Speedy deletion nomination of Fährmann Maria[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Fährmann Maria requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

I appreciate all of that but you wiped out the Infobox and all of the information in it because it said I had an editing conflict due to you putting the deletion notice on here. Now I have to do it all over again. ForceFive (talk)

American Council on Science and Health[edit]

You seem to have a lot of insider information about this organization, at least based on this edit. Would you mind explaining how you know all of these details? If they come from reliably published sources then you should cite those sources along with your additions. That's the main reason I reverted many of your changes--because they weren't supported by reliable sources, and some of them seemed to contradict the cited sources that are already there.

Also, please note that the "minor edit" checkbox is reserved for superficial edits such as typo fixes. Definitely not for the sorts of substantive changes you've been making recently in a variety of articles. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 20:02, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Reply: No special insider information to click a link and see it is Consumers Union, not Greenpeace. If you read the sources you use you would have known that. I see you have had conflict of interest concerns about your edits, and in reading the talk page there are concerns you have a goal beyond informing the public. Usually someone monitoring a Wikipedia page and making sure the point of view is from critics has a hidden agenda. ForceFive

September 2017[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on American Council on Science and Health. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can 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 you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Alexbrn (talk) 14:29, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In reading that talk page and looking at the edits since yesters=day, the same editor is encouraging critics to add negative links and removing any edits that are more neutral. You now say we must follow the links that are only allowed by one editor. Did you give that editor the same threat? If not, that is a conflict. ForceFive

Endocrine disruptor[edit]

Hi. I undid your edit to Endocrine disruptor as there were too many statements that had been changed and were no longer supported by the source cited right after. I do wholly agree that the article needs to be made WP:MEDRS compliant, currently too many citations are to primary sources when only reviews should be cited. Again sorry for reverting, but I think it's easier to make an article WP:MEDRS compliant from the start rather than trying to find which part of the sentences are backed by a source.
