editHello-I see you are trying to delete my page for Dr. John Buster because you believe it is advertising. I am not sure what I would try to be advertising for this man. He is a professional doctor who has done many noteworthy things in his career and should indeed be included in an encyclopedia. He developed and led the world's first embryo transfer that resulted in a baby!!A huge scientific break through. I am trying to work on my wording so it doesn't seem so advertising and more straight forward so please give me a chance on this or give me any advice you would have. Thanks.

- I'm sorry, but the page reads like the doctor's resume rather than a NPOV third-party article.WikiDan61 (talk) 15:04, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

- Unfortunately, it still is extremely CV-ish, and I've tagged it as such. There is too much medical jargon, and it doesn't conform to the manual of style for biographies, instead, still reads just like someone trying to promote themselves. Additionally, I suspect that JP ID MC has a conflict of interest, judging from their contributions, and I would encourage them to read Wikipedia's guideline on creating articles about people they know, or work with/for, as well as the policy on single use accounts.

Dr. Buster is an historical figure whose accomplishments to medicine and women's health is extraordinary. I have no financial or a conflict of interest in promoting him. Could you please provide some suggestions on how too improve this. I want this to be noteworthy and do not want to take away from the integrity of wikipedia.thanksJP ID MC (talk) 02:28, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

editI'm working on fixing the references on this article. There are two (so far) dead links. I have named them "Dead URL." If any admins or editors see this page (as of today 2014-06-27), please note that I believe I have access to the actual articles at my office (I work in a teaching hospital), and I plan to get the proper citations for the articles and remove the URL citations. I believe the journal the articles were in (Sexuality, Reproduction and Menopause) is no longer being published; the URLs link to its parent journal. I'm hoping to fix those citations within the next 7-10 days. skatoulaki (talk) 00:21, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
