You do know (I hope) you've got a sandbox, especially for that kind of stuff? You can even create a specific userpage for it. Good luck and happy editing... Kleuske (talk) 23:57, 15 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

I'm aware that I have a sandbox for that kind of stuff but I just wasn't sure whether or not my writing professor wanted it on the user page or the sandbox (so I just copy pasted my critique on both!). But, thank you for letting me know. Lee.ji (talk) 00:44, 16 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Home Lander. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Sugar substitute, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Home Lander (talk) 18:26, 8 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Sugar substitutes

edit

Hello. I reverted your edit because the studies cited were hypotheses or primary research, neither of which is encyclopedic. Please see the guidelines offered in my edit note. Because sugar effects on body weight is a medical topic, we need strong, high-quality evidence for the encyclopedia. You may wish to review these sources below. Good luck. --Zefr (talk) 02:25, 18 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

We do not use sources on animals; see WP:MEDANIMAL. Dietary studies on humans cannot isolate cause-and-effect relationships. --Zefr (talk) 03:55, 18 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Is it not okay even though I said that there is a correlation? Not a cause and effect relationship? (I established this when I was writing so I thought it was okay..._ Lee.ji (talk) 12:37, 18 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Your statement made a relationship between NNS and a human disease, when that is far from being shown by high-quality clinical studies. This is not encyclopedic per WP:NOTJOURNAL. --Zefr (talk) 16:10, 18 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
