Citation 39
editCitation 39 is a dead/outdated link that doesn't lead to what it should lead to. Should another valid citation be found to replace it?
This citation is supposed to show the link between lung cancer and smoking, so I'm sure it isn't difficult to get another source.

Renaming ?
editShouldn't this page be renamed to Health effects of nicotine ? If it's about tobacco, then the health effects of drinking tobacco tinctures should also be discussed. KVDP (talk) 17:41, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
- I don't think so, no. Basically all the content discusses tobacco rather than nicotine alone. If you can find a WP:MEDRS source about tobacco tinctures we can include a discussion of that here. Sizeofint (talk) 18:08, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
- per Nicotine_poisoning, Nicotine dependence and Nicotine articles, I would agree w/ Sizeofint(the general topic of nicotine and its effects seem to be well covered in the aforementioned articles)....BTW[1]--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 18:59, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
Recent rollback?
editPing User:Sennecaster; User:Sandstein. I do not understand the rationale for the rollback here. The edits rolled back were *not* pov-driven, and were basically intended to implement the Merge decision at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Smoker's paradox. For example, the edits implemented the decision to restrict usage of the term smoker's paradox to cardiovascular disease and COVID-19. (Of note, while I personally found that questionable in the context of the pre-existing page specifically named 'Smoker's paradox', I do not perceive it to be an issue here). Other rolled-back edits were explained in the edit summaries. Fwiw, I believe that some more of the content/sourcing could possibly be trimmed (per WP:WEIGHT?). 86.186.120.156 (talk) 10:23, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hi! I'm a PCR that happened to see the edit. I thought some of the wording was a bit non-NPOVish and I don't usually check the talk page unless it's linked in the summary, so it looked suspicious. Thanks for explaining,I've accepted your most recent revision :) Sennecaster (What now?) 10:47, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you User:Sennecaster. 86.186.120.156 (talk) 10:49, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
