reliance on primary sources

edit

Hi - please read WP:MEDRS. This article has a lot of sourcing problems. I'm sorry if your instructor didn't go over our medical sourcing standards, but Wikipedia doesn't allow the use of primary sources etc in articles about medicine. I'm going to drop some cleanup tags on the page until the sourcing problems are addressed. Thanks, Kevin Gorman (talk) 00:33, 19 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

I agree that encyclopedia articles cannot be based on primary sources. Please replace as many references as possible with either reviews or textbook content. Content that cannot be reliably sourced to either of these sources should be considered for removal from the article. JFW | T@lk 14:29, 27 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
I appreciate the feedback. For this specific topic, review articles are scarce. I have one review article, Perkes, et al., where much of the information in this article was found or supported. I do understand, though, that primary sources are not reliable for this type of article. I am working on finding additional secondary sources to replace unsupported information. Thanks.
