@ThaddeusSholto: I refer to the edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pregabalin&diff=1208934179&oldid=1208821290
I visited the User talk:Publishedarticles and found out that other editors consider that "it appears as if your primary purpose on Wikipedia is to add citations to research published by a small group of researchers". While this may be true, but this particular edit, in isolation, seems to be relevant and compliant. If the administration considers that the user Publishedarticles violates the rules of Wikipedia, than the administrators will take administrative action. Still, that edit is OK in my opinion. If you think that this edit is not OK, please give your argument other than that it was done by a user suspected in adding citations to research published by a small group of researchers.

- @Maxim Masiutin: I provided a reason in the edit summary. This is WP:CITESPAM. Publishedarticles has spent years adding references to papers by Jamir Pitton Rissardo and it is apparently their sole reason for editing here. These edits are self-promotional. They have racked up warnings over the years yet continue to do so. Per policy the links should be removed and the user warned which is what happened here. Upholding policy is not the sole domain of administrators. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 17:10, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the explanation, I didn't know that all the articles are by Jamir Pitton Rissardo. Your explanation makes sense, thank you again! Maxim Masiutin (talk) 17:28, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
calming effect may change if a patients calm is disrupted!! !!
edit!! WARNING !! I took Lyrica with dosage of 150mg/day and it gave me a calming effect under a period of time, but then suddenly the calming effect switched to a stressed condition which increased pulse, and bloodpressure. I usually have a pulse around 65 bpm but when the stressed effect kicked in it went up 120!! !! Newly discovered sideeffects!! !! (talk) 14:38, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
Video of Richard Silverman
editThis video really does not add much to the text, except to promote Dr. Silverman. I would propose removing the video, as it appear to me to be self-promotion, against the principles of Wikipedia. Taylorchas (talk) 17:03, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
Shorten and revise Intro and rewrite Pharmacology sections?
editI would propose making some fairly substantial changes to the text of these sections to make certain passages more clear and updated and also to reduce redundancy. I will gradually incorporate my suggested changes over the next week or two unless someone objects. Taylorchas (talk) 20:28, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
