There have been some recent edits related to the contribution by Singh, but these contributions have been reversed (by others) as unreferenced. In case this occurs again, I though that I'd start a discussion here about the classification system. The Singh DPhil thesis referred to, according to the Oxford library catalogue is:
Singh, B. N. (Bramah N.)(1971) A study of the pharmacological actions of certain drugs and hormones with particular reference to cardiac muscle. x, 155 leaves : illustrations ; 27 cm
Key joint papers between Singh and Vaughan Williams were published in 1970, [1] [2] which appear to relate to amiodarone and other Class III compounds.
There is a broader article on antidysrhymic drugs by Vaughan-Williams in 1970, [3] and there are a flurry of 1969 articles from Vaughan-Williams and others (but not Singh) discussing antidysrthymic drugs. [4] [5] [6] [7]
Vaughan-Williams had a clear interest, and published on, cardiac arrhythmias back from his time working with Burn in 1956, [8] and developed important experimental techniques necessary for study such arrthymias in the 1950s. [9]
So, to my eye, its not clear that Singh had a leading role, and that contributions of many others were equally important (and earlier), with Vaughan-Williams leading the line of enquiry. Klbrain ( talk) 17:07, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

Is that book really by the same guy as the article? It doesn't seem like it. Penguinmlle ( talk) 17:17, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
