Bufotenin(e)

[edit]
Nominated on September 2, 2007. Received one vote. Removed nomination on September 19, 2007.

Nominated because recent editors have been very scientific. The article bufotenin has plenty of citations but could use more facts.

Promoted to GA status on May 10, 2007. Article is in reasonably good shape, but could use a bit more work to bring it up to featured status, mainly in the realm of wikify-ing text, and maybe adding a little more information.

Nominated as a GA on December 8, 2005, so it's been awhile. As it stands now, it's dangerously close to losing GA status (mostly referencing and some organizational issues). It's an important drug, obviously, so problems should be addressed.

  • Nothing's even been written, I wrote some basic stuff but no one has even added this until today. Check it out, similar to tramadol. First new narcotic painkiller in 25 years. Coleisman 02:14, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is a great subject, but I'm not sure that it's the best choice for collaboration right now. I've been trying to find information about the drug, but it's so new that not much is out there in the scientific literature (most google searches go to press releases which mostly just reiterate what's in the article already).

  • I was shocked to see such an important topic have so little material. I fixed the intro and added a ref, but this really needs some attention. There is lots and lots to do, and I know we have some cardio experts out there. Jeff Dahl 22:50, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree. This particular article needs attention. I'm quite familiar with cardiac physiology and would be more than happy to help. Voluminous lists are usually an eyesore. Wisdom89 23:34, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • This article is a rambling, out-of-date treatise that can and should give clearer information about--for example--the placebo effect in response treatments as diverse as high quality evidence-based medicine to medical quackery, why placebo controls are necessary for a quality study, and the known and suspected mechanisms involved. — Scientizzle 17:58, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • This has also been proposed at WPMED. If chosen, it might be nice for both projects to coordinate its development. WhatamIdoing (talk) 19:32, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • I saved this article from deletion. I don't have a background in biology, so moving beyong the corporate biographies and NYT article have been slow going. I would REALLY appreciate some expert attention on the article, as I'm sure I've goofed some things up. :) It is currently marked as high (he's got an h-index of 63), but feel free to mark it mid.

  • I marked the article for deletion, and withdrew the nomination when Protonk came to its rescue. It is a great article that deserves to be seen! Ecoleetage (talk) 02:52, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
