Hi DocJames. I am writing to you in regard to the oxytocin article, and proposed changes on its effect on feeding. Thank you for your feedback, i have some questions regarding this: - Most other references on this article are primary sources also, so when can a primary source be used (as they have been in the article), and when must secondary sources be used? Does this mean that all primary sources on this article should be removed? - What do you mean by saying that the medical journal "Frontiers", is a "predatory" source, and not very good? It has one of the highest impact factors in the field and this research is of notable interest to add to the information gap on oxytocins effect on feeding. Thank you for your time and i look forward to your reply. Kind Regards HeadDr ( talk) 03:01, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

Your reversion prompted me to review WP:MEDRS. I think I should have been alert to the notion that the source is still a primary source even though it's a 160000 enrolled randomized clinical trial done by American Psychiatric Association.
Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources_(medicine)#Respect_secondary_sources: If conclusions are worth mentioning (such as large randomized clinical trials with surprising results), they should be described appropriately as from a single study. Given time a review will be published, and the primary sources should preferably be replaced with the review. Using secondary sources then allows facts to be stated with greater reliability.
I appreciate your patience and education!

I found a recent review.
In our meta-analysis we found an association between exposure to ADs and new-onset diabetes, with a relative risk of 1.27. When we restricted the analysis to the studies to high NOS score the association between ADs and diabetes was even stronger. The results are in line with those from two previous meta-analyses that reported a 1.5-fold increase of diabetes among AD users.

Good afternoon Doc James,
My apologies for taking so long to get back to your response; I truly appreciate the rapid feedback. The specific sources (within the context of scoliosis; including all sub-types ie. neuromuscular, congenital, idiopathic) I was discussing/proposing was those related to the annual/semi-annual guidelines which are proposed and published by SOSORT at and following their annual meeting of clinicians, surgeons, researchers, etc. While the guidelines are published within PubMed, the specific journal tends to vary. The guidelines are essentially an amalgamation of current and past research and clinical study findings and serve s general Tx guidelines for those in the field of scoliosis. I've listed some examples (Pubmed) below to the specific guideline publications from the past ~11 years or so. I would think that these should serve well as a secondary source as they do not originate from any individual "camp" of research or study, and typically assess most/all current research. I'd love to hear your thoughts regarding the suitability of such a source as a citable reference for medical information on wikipedia.

I am an administrator on the English Wikipedia since 2006. I am not involved, as far as I recall, in any disputes involving Fram or other users involved in this matter, and do not personally know any of them.
As you will know, this dispute has resulted in a grave crisis of confidence on the part of very many English Wikipedia users with respect to Foundation staff. I urge you to give this matter your full attention. In particular, I'd like to ask you and the Board to, as quickly as reasonably possible:

I can't get access to the Am J Ther reference, but I think the first reference contains more information about the proposed mechanism of the toxicity, namely through 9CMMG. I would be happy to support your ref if you could confirm that it discusses the mechanism. [17] JFW | T@lk 15:14, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

Dear members of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees (or rather, those of you with public user accounts):
I am one of probably many Wikipedia users writing to you about the matter of the Wikimedia Foundation's office's ban of the English Wikipedia user Fram, as documented at en:Wikipedia:FRAM.
I am an administrator on the English Wikipedia since 2006. I am not involved, as far as I recall, in any disputes involving Fram or other users involved in this matter, and do not personally know any of them.
As you will know, this dispute has resulted in a grave crisis of confidence on the part of very many English Wikipedia users with respect to Foundation staff. I urge you to give this matter your full attention. In particular, I'd like to ask you and the Board to, as quickly as reasonably possible:
Thank you for your service on behalf of our common project.

Hi, may I ask why you've removed the additional brand name from the Orkambi page, as well as links directly to the manufacturers' pages for those brandings? Unless you can provide a reasonable explanation, I'll readd those as they are both factually correct and backed up by the appropriate sources. AtomCrusher ( talk) 14:19, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
Hi Doc James, Some questions you could ask whenever you have your sit down. They're worded a little sloppily, but I assume you won't care about that: Most important:
