Reddit edit
If you saw a thread on Reddit claiming I am a paid government shill, please do read my denial. It may help you understand how and why Mr. Reddit got it wrong.
- No one that matters or with any knowledge of Wikipedia thinks you are a paid editor... Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 23:03, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
- :Agree completely. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 23:05, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
- I can't say I'd ever thought you could possibly be a paid editor. Years ago, I learned to NOT try to edit something when you started editing, because you make so many small edits and typos that it's safer to wait til you're done... If you are a paid editor, you'd better be getting paid by the edit rather than by the amount of prose added... Ealdgyth - Talk 23:10, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
- Oh good grief. I can't imagine any context in the wiki-world where anyone who understands the project could consider you a paid editor. Wow. Boy have they missed the mark. Risker (talk) 23:20, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
- During the miserably cold winter, I remember being in the car one morning, hearing the news about Venezuela, and I thought to myself, "boy does Wikipedia need Sandy right now." And then there you were, doing what you do best. Hang in there and keep it up. You've been working those pages as long as I remember. Own? Pfft! Stewartship is a different matter.

- Do they offer benefits? How much is Wikipedia paying these days? I might like to sign up. :) Huggums537 (talk) 16:28, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
Medical misinformation edit
- Exaggeration in health-related science news
- An Indian pharmacy journal article scraping text from Wikipedia without attribution: [2] Then future editors can cite that journal, unaware that is a mirror and not reliable. Another reason why our medical articles should respect MEDRS and have a prominent disclaimer at the top.[3]
- PMID 24276492 Evaluation of gastroenterology and hepatology articles on Wikipedia: Are they suitable as learning resources for medical students?
- Example of medically irresponsible text that stood for two years.
- Example from Hallucination that stood for over a year, inserted by a student editor
- Add list from Adrian J. Hunter
- Entire suite at {{Cannabis}} prior to December 2013 gave unfounded, inaccurate medical info
- Redback spider antivenom
- Not atypical for medical editing on Wikipedia: Plastic surgery advocacy
- Schizophrenia and {{Cannabis}}: [4]
- Vandalism that inserted inaccurate information at coprolalia stood for six months, undetected, unreverted. [5] (by definition, TS requires verbal tics).
- Nine months of long cough; will that kill ya? [6] Another Wikipedia pharm article, vandalism that has stood for nine months and is now mirrored on dozens of internet sites.
