Talk:MiPT

Ideal sources for Wikipedia's health content are defined in the guideline Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) and are typically review articles. Here are links to possibly useful sources of information about MiPT.

PubMed provides review articles from the past five years (limit to free review articles)
The TRIP database provides clinical publications about evidence-based medicine.
Other potential sources include: Centre for Reviews and Dissemination and CDC

Mipt is not unscheduled in the US. It is explicitly named as a positional isomer of DET by this 2006 ruling http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18064769 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maozim (talk • contribs) 18:40, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

1. MiPT is not mentioned in the document you linked.

2. Just because a compound is a positional isomer of a Schedule I compound does not mean that it is also a Schedule I compound, as clearly stated in the document you linked:

This rule does not change existing laws, regulations, policies, processes, and procedures regarding the determination of control status for schedule I hallucinogenic substances. This rule merely makes available to the public the longstanding definition of ‘‘positional isomer’’ which DEA has used when making these scheduling determinations.

Title change

The previous name of this article (Methylisopropyltryptamine) does not follow most of Wikipedia's top five criteria for article titles:

Recognizability: Methylisopropyltryptamine is not recognizable to those who are not an expert in chemistry or pharmacology. MiPT is what someone would recognize if they arrived at this article from, say, the DiPT article.

Naturalness: aside from MiPT, readers would be mostly likely to search for N-methyl-N-isopropyltryptamine, not Methylisopropyltryptamine).

Consistency: other related articles such as DiPT, DALT and MALT as well as drugs such as MPT, DPT, etc. all use the [Acronym] (psychedelic) format.

In addition, Methylisopropyltryptamine does not follow the WP:COMMONNAME guidelines.

I will be going through the Cleaning up after a move checklist in the coming days. Thanks! Repylom (talk) 22:05, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
