Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Wikipedia has many policies and guidelines, which call for gradual familiarization. In addition to neutral point of view, one of the main principles of Wikipedia nowadays is verifiability. As an encyclopedic source, Wikipedia content is mainly based on reliable secondary sources. For any content regarding medical or other health-related claims please see the specific guidelines (commonly referred to as MEDRS) for identifying and using reliable medical sources. In particular, MEDRS explains how medical claims need to be supported by appropriately selected peer-reviewed scientific review papers or major clinical guidelines of widely recognized health organizations.

Your recent edits

edit

  Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button   or   located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 16:07, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Apurve Mehra

edit

Hello NatureisScience2,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Apurve Mehra for deletion, because it seems to be an promotion, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, — 16:11, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Deletion discussion about Apurve Mehra

edit

Hello, NatureisScience2,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Apurve Mehra should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Apurve Mehra .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks, — 16:12, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Possible conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, NatureisScience2. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Article, you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. In particular, do you have a conflict of interest with the company Biogetica? Thank you.
