Recent edits edit

Were under discussion here. Should shift discussion of these specific edits here. I am copying my own initial comments there, here.

  • diff -- series of edits explicitly about human health sourced to primary sources PMID 26194112 and PMID 25656819 and PMID 25356899 and PMID 10485705 (an 18 year old primary source) and PMID 19838302 and PMID 25225386 and a Nature News piece and a NAS report and a Science News piece (PMID 28209849). The content suggests gene editing to cure autism (editing the genes discussed in the content based on primary sources). This is dangerous and irresponsible editing and I have reverted it. 22:20, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  • After some discussion, the initial edit was lightly edited and restored. That edit still contained content about human health sourced to primary sources as well as WP:CRYSTALBALL content about gene editing for human enhancement. I removed both restored bits in this diff and this diff. I left some of the content sourced to primary sources that was only about animal studies. This is suboptimal but I won't remove that again.Jytdog (talk) 22:32, 2 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Jytdog: As the article stands now, there is no reason to mention the FOXP2. Perhaps you don't understand the topic. DennisPietras (talk) 02:52, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
I missed that bit of WP:SYN (yet more policy-violation). removed it. Jytdog (talk) 02:58, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
