WP:MEDRS

Ugog Nizdast, regarding this, see WP:MEDRS. The editor added poor sources; that is why I reverted (as briefly noted on that editor's talk page). Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 21:40, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Flyer22 Reborn: By mistake I meant using counter-vandalism softare/rollback against a good-faith edit, per Wikipedia:Rollback#When_to_use_rollback.

I'm self reverting. But it would be great if you could explain to this editor, exactly how WP:MEDRS is violated and how she can improve on her edit should she choose to do so. I did mention WP:MEDRS to her but lacked the knowledge to judge her edit further since I lack the expertise. To my untrained eye, the edit has a mix of references which look like journals and some looking like news sites devoted to mental health professionals. I'm guessing it won't be obvious to this new editor too (how the edit is completely not MEDRS-compliant) and you can advise her better. I'll notify her that this discussion is taking place here if you do.

Disclosure: I've participated with this editor in the edit-a-thon. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 14:20, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The edits included WP:Primary sources, which WP:MEDRS generally discourages the use of. It also included sources that fall under WP:MEDPOP or the section immediately below WP:MEDPOP. I'll leave a message about this at WP:Med for more commentary. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 16:19, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
