Speedy deletion nomination of Breast enhanced scintigraphy test

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Breast enhanced scintigraphy test, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Vincent Liu (what?) 19:40, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, RM Fleming, MD. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Reify-tech (talk) 22:02, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Beevil. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. Beevil (talk) 12:13, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies to you. I am not that familiar with how to use this site. The quoted publications are in press and are quite relevant to Sestamibi. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.90.197.240 (talk • contribs) 00:34, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Complaints about Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi article

You are complaining and defending yourself before the wrong person and in the wrong place. I have not formed any strong opinion regarding the Sestamibi article or regarding your work, but am merely trying to point out standard Wikipedia policies on editing. I strongly urge you to discuss your grievances and positions at Talk:Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi, where your situation will be seen and discussed by all editors interested in the article. Reify-tech (talk) 16:55, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The point is wikipedia is not the place for information unless you publish everything. If you are going to do that you must publish all the FDA documents or nothing on this. Otherwise it is for the personal position of the individual posting who is posting because they promote KETO diets and they are determined to push this agenda. You have now allowed wikipedia to be used for this purpose, which I don't believe that is the purpose of wikipedia. But you tell me.— Preceding unsigned comment added by RM Fleming, MD (talk • contribs) 21:05, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Fleming's story can be read about here and here. He currently appears to be raising funds via a GoFundMe campaign to help him market and license his patented process he calls "FMTVDM." His "research" appears to have been primarily published in journals identified elsewhere as "predatory" or low quality journals, and there are threads on PubPeer identifying issues with a number of these papers (here and here, for example). While he is understandably upset about his felony conviction and the fallout from that, he has done little to answer people who question his research papers or background, instead he typically calls them names. I do not believe Wikipedia or the entry on Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi will benefit from his contributions, although I know nothing about the subject myself.ThatsRegrettable (talk) 23:20, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is a COI with "ThatsRegrettable" and the submissions being made to wikipedia. This individual has continued to stalk, harass and bully in an effort to promote their point of view based upon, as they admit, no knowledge of this topic. As mentioned, they are attempting to air their grievance here and would like to use wikipedia as a method for doing so. Their comments are focused on being upset with my responses to them. For "ThatsRegrettable" to comment that someone, namely myself, who has published for almost three decades on this topic and who has been asked by the FDA to provide the FDA with information about the topic is providing contributions without benefit not only raises serious COI concerns; it raises serious defamation concerns. It also damages the credibility of what's published here. "ThatsRegrettable" should be blocked from commenting on this topic further and I would ask that they be blocked from commenting on wikipedia. Respectfully submitted. Dr. Fleming — Preceding unsigned comment added by RM Fleming, MD (talk • contribs) 04:16, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I say No. The sources provided are not against Wikipedia rules, and you - as the person involved - can not remove them. There is a procedure to follow. Edit warring is what you are doing right now and that will get YOU blocked. For myself, I don't believe your claim against ThatsRegrettable. It's just an excuse to keep sourced information off the article. Nothing more. 2001:8003:5901:B400:D149:79D4:9C09:FA93 (talk) 06:29, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To be able to talk and address the items you have asked would require exposing "proprietary data" which is protected both by copyright and by patent. This is part of the intention of "ThatsRegrettable" and my response has been the same, as it must be to protect the patent and copyrights, viz. this information is proprietary and I will not be stalked, harassed or bullied into providing it. By maintaining this proprietary information proprietary, the cost of this test is controlled by patent, reducing patient costs and radiation exposure caused by the misrepresentations made by the pharmaceutical company. So I cannot release this information if I am to protect the patent and copyrights. "ThatsRegrettable" and those he is affiliated with know this. His classic go to line, "he doesn't know enough." He's correct and he doesn't know enough to be adding to wikipedia on any of these issues. So I am again open to either of the two approaches I have mentioned over the last few responses. I do apologize for not being more streamlined than this with responses. First, I truly am not familiar with your editing processes and secondly I am working with Universities and companies to bring FMTVDM out before summer. Respectfully submitted, Dr. Fleming

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. Beevil (talk) 18:05, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is obvious that you know nothing about the subject matter and therefore your commenting on it, is inappropriate. The patent was issued through the US Constitution. The proprietary knowledge will remain proprietary and you are not my student. You will also not receive a license to use the patent. I do not owe you an explanation. The stalking, harassing and bullying techniques have been reported. I trust that wikipedia will not provide an avenue for further abuse. You are a day late and a dollar short regarding the "conviction". You quote snippets without reading the FDA materials submitted to the FDA. By not understanding the facts and not representing them, you are at risk for a potential, as I have mentioned previously, civil suit for defamation to which I do not believe wikipedia wishes to be associated. Their awareness of this and subsequent dissemination would only involve them which would be wrong. The major publications removed from this site earlier are the documents which prove Sestamibi redistribution. I will not continue to waste my time addressing you nor allowing you to hide behind fictitious names. You have a clear COI and should not be allowed to post on this site again or perhaps on wikipedia again.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.90.197.240 (talk • contribs) 00:34, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"ThatsRegrettable" cannot establish this is not a COI. Based upon the subject matter, he is trying to litigate on wikipedia. If this remains on wikipedia, then I will in discussions note that this has been allowed on wikipedia and question the very validity of wikipedia. I will post all the FDA materials on this site.— Preceding unsigned comment added by RM Fleming, MD (talk • contribs) 14:18, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

March 2019

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Randykitty (talk) 16:09, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

RM Fleming, MD (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

The contributions I have made are based upon published data, both to the FDA and the published peer reviewed medical literature. The comments made by "ThatsRegrettable" are a COI. This individual is promoting KETO diets and he/she has not liked the fact that this patent will provide the only method to measure changes in coronary artery disease and has been proposed as the next study; which clinicians have an ethical and moral obligation to conduct. Should information about FDA statements be included in this wiki page, then a balance of what has been submitted must be included. Alternatively, FHRWW and FMTVDM are not only my intellectual property, including copyrights and patents, which clearly qualifies me as "the expert" to be discussing sestamibi redistribution and its use; but, it also gives me the legal right to exclude the publication of anything based upon copyright law. Accordingly, I would ask that either the comments from "ThatsRegrettable" be deleted or all of my information which is copyrighted to me be removed under a copyright violation. I leave this decision up to Randykitty and everyone else now interacting with this discussion.

Decline reason:

This request does not address your edit warring, which is not permitted even if you are correct in your claims. You will need to indicate that you understand policy in this area before being unblocked. Regarding copyright, if your copyrighted materials are here against their copyright, you can request their removal by contacting the information team as described at Wikipedia:Contact us/Licensing. If that was the extent of your legal threats, I would leave it at that, but your comment while logged out is a legal threat against another editor. As such, I am making this block indefinite; you will need to explicitly withdraw the threat or indicate that any legal action is resolved before you can be unblocked. You can pursue your grievances in the courts of your country or on Wikipedia, but not both. I am declining this request. 331dot (talk) 22:21, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Note to reviewing admin There is a possible legal threat in the previous section: "By not understanding the facts and not representing them, you are at risk for a potential, as I have mentioned previously, civil suit for defamation to which I do not believe wikipedia wishes to be associated.". This was clearly made by the editor while logged out. See the whole diff [1]. Voceditenore (talk) 17:36, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am not trying to threaten anyone. At no time have I been trying to threaten anyone. I simply have never seen anything or am aware of any way in which something which the US Constitution gives to me is now someone else's.

I've indicated what you can do to have any content that violates your copyright removed. However, your statement "By not understanding the facts and not representing them, you are at risk for a potential, as I have mentioned previously, civil suit for defamation to which I do not believe wikipedia wishes to be associated" is a legal threat and you must explicitly withdraw this in order to be unblocked, as I stated. 331dot (talk) 22:57, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Edit-warring

Your recent editing history at Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
You are now at 5 reverts. Note also that editing while logged out to evade scrutiny also constitutes a revert, making that 6. You must discuss your proposed changes at Talk:Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi. Voceditenore (talk) 16:10, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is no intent to be threatening on my part. I fear wikipedia is being used by "ThatsRegrettable" for this persons agenda. I do not wish to be spending my time finding his attacks upon me trying to undermine efforts to conduct research to expose potential health risks from KETO diets. That being said, I am open to either approach you at wikipedia wish. The first proposed change is to remove the comments by "ThatsRegrettable" as it is not relevant to the discussion of "Sestamibi Redistribution" and as "ThatsRegrettable" has admitted, they do not have the expertise to discuss it, or secondly, to simply remove my information from the page regarding the patent and the copyrighted material. It was originally posted by myself, as I have the legal copyright to use my Intellectual Property. However, I would rather withdraw the permission to discuss FMTVDM or FHRWW through the withdraw of my copyrighted material and leave the wikipedia reader unfamiliar with the advancements and "quantitative" imaging now made possible through this Intellectual Property, than continue to deal with stalking, harassing and bullying by KETO stalkers. Again, I leave this in your hands. We can either leave my Intellectual Property on wikipedia and withdraw the attacks upon me or we can remove me and my Intellectual Property according to copyright law.

If you are referring to your edits to the article Technetium (99mTc) sestamibi, please note that whenever you place material on Wikipedia you agree to the Terms of Use, and you irrevocably agree to release your contribution under the CC BY-SA 3.0 License. You also agree that a hyperlink or URL is sufficient attribution under the Creative Commons license. This is clearly stated in the editing window with every edit you make. You do not have a legal right to remove your edits from Wikipedia once you have made them. I also strongly suggest that you desist from making personal attacks and casting aspersions on other editors. Voceditenore (talk) 19:17, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have read the response regarding copyrights. Copyright is a constitutional right, it is supreme law and cannot be overridden by legislative laws. The copyrights are mine as is the patent. U.S. Constitution Article 1, Section 8, Clause 8. I have the legal right to revoke at any time. See Kalem Co. v. Harper Bros., 222 U.S. 55 (1911). For other problems arising because of technological and electronic advancement, see,e.g., Fortnightly Corp. v. United Artists Television, Inc., 392 U.S. 390 (1968); Sony Corp. v. Universal City Studios, 464 U.S. 417 (1984).
