Please do not add or change content, as you did at Vitamin C, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Zefr (talk) 23:08, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for bringing this to my attention, @Zefr. I would like to clarify the reasoning. I had initially referenced a New York Times article, published in a September 27, 1979 article by Lawrence K. Altman in the New York Times, titled "Study Finds Big Vitamin C Doses Not Beneficial to Cancer Patients."

Upon re-reading the vitamin C page, this information would be relevant under the subsection "Large doses," where Linus Pauling "proposed that vitamin C would prevent cardiovascular disease, and that 10 grams/day, initially (10 days) administered intravenously and thereafter orally, would cure late-stage cancer." Especially following the sentence stating: "The theory that large amounts of intravenous ascorbic acid can be used to treat late-stage cancer is - some forty years after Pauling's seminal paper - still considered unproven and still in need of high quality research."

The study by the Mayo Clinic countered Dr. Pauling's assertion at the time, yet there is no mention of it within the page.

I'd be grateful for your thoughts on whether this information and the citation from the NY Times would be more appropriate in that section.

Thank you. Artfullearner (talk) 23:31, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Hello - the outdated Mayo source and the issue of high-dose vitamin C to treat cancer as long-abandoned are WP:UNDUE. Pauling was a two-time Nobel Prize recipient, possibly justifying mention. Zefr (talk) 23:40, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

There is also the issue of WP:MEDRS. Wikipedia rarely accepts any one clinical trial as evidence, as often the literature contains multiple clinical trials with contradictory results. For this reason Wikipedia recommends/requires either science journal reviews, systematic reviews or meta-analyses as references. Also, when a journal article is used as a reference, there is no need to identify the research group members by name, nor what institute they are at, nor the name of the journal, nor include media coverage of the article as additional references. All of that is seen as trying to improve the importance of the article. David notMD (talk) 11:58, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

@Zefr @David notMD thank you both for clarifying! Artfullearner (talk) 16:32, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your feedback, it has been incredibly helpful! Based on your notes and suggestions, I've re-read the sources used as citations and corrected the issues you've mentioned in the draft for Susan James' article. These issues include fixing the inappropriate synthesis of sources, removing external links in the main article, and noting the source mentioning the artists James opened for. I've also removed content that could not be verified with a citation including the names of several artists she was said to have opened for. Thanks! Artfullearner (talk) 14:52, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

@Artfullearner: Thanks for making those changes! Because of the comments left when the draft was submitted previously, I'm going to get a second opinion from another reviewer for this decision, which should happen in the next few days. (By the way, I'd recommend using the {{Reply to}} template on talk pages; it sends me a notification about your message, which wouldn't normally happen otherwise.) —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 19:58, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

@TechnoSquirrel69: thank you for your thorough review and also your valuable input on this current matter! It's incredibly helpful both for this particular article, and my general Wikipedia knowledge. I appreciate the time you're taking to go over the review process necessary to publish this page, as well as getting a second opinion based on the article's history. I agree that it is important in order to ensure that this article is up to standards and reflective of the subject's contributions to the music industry.
