References

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 03:45, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

Thanks, User: Doc James! I'll do my best to adhere to the style guidelines and use secondary sources as much as possible. I'm very interested in stress physiology and a number of related pages would benefit from further citations to which I'd like to contribute. Please let me know if there are instances where my work needs correcting. Compiledata (talk) 19:39, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

Many of the sources you used are NOT secondary sources... Also you must paraphrase more. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 04:00, 14 October 2017 (UTC)

One of the sources I had cited which has been removed was a textbook about Capnography, which I was under the impression is exactly the sort of secondary source preferred. The other two are from peer reviewed journals. In addition, there is a redundant typo in the correction which I would like to fix. My edit is still in my user sandbox if you could provide me more specific feedback when time permits. Thanks Compiledata (talk) 16:11, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

Cite journal and cite web

Are prefered over the specially links. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 21:24, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

Thanks again User: Doc James. I interpreted your prior comment as indicating the style of my citation was incorrect. I'll use cite journal and cite web moving forward and stick to templates! Compiledata (talk) 02:07, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

WP:MEDHOW describes how to properly format references. Best Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 02:34, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
