Your submission at Articles for creation: Meso-zeaxanthin has been deleted

Hi I found out that Meso-zeaxanthin was a copy of another website at http://www.meso-zeaxanthin.org/ so I have deleted it. If you are the author of that site there may be a way to reinstate, but proof will be needed. Otherwise, be aware that copying others' writing is not permitted.

Hello Graham, we actually own and run the www.meso-zeaxanthin.org website. All the content and references (peer-reviewed papers) are either written by us or our colleagues. Can we please get the Meso-zeaxanthin wikipedia page restored. How can we go about getting this done? Thank you, Niamh OwensMacularcarotenoids (talk) 18:49, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

I was wondering if that was the case. Thanks for disclosing your interest here, as that is one of the steps required for people that are editing for a company. How you go about proving this is to add a compatible copyright license to that web site. What we need is " CC BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL " for all the pages you wish to copy. You can see the license on the bottom of pages here with links to the full text. You could make it apply for the whole web site too. You can specify the attribution required as well. What this means is that others can copy, use and make derivatives of the content. If you do put such a license on your web site let me know and I will restore the content once I have verified it!

Hi Graeme, I will source how to do this on our mes0-zeaxanthin website and revert back to you when it is done. In the meantime I include a note from Profs Nolan and Beatty to be included in our resubmission: Dear Editor (Mr. Graeme Bartlett), thank you for your mail on the 5th of February 2015. We write to confirm that the www.meso-zeaxanthin.org website is the property of professors John M Nolan and Stephen Beatty, and we give permission for all content on that website for use as needed on the meso-zeaxanthin Wikipedia page. We also confirm that all content, including graphics and figures, for the proposed meso-zeaxanthin Wikipedia page, was also prepared by Professors Nolan and Beatty and our colleague Dr Alfonso Prado-Cabrero (the three authors of the proposed meso-zeaxanthin Wikipedia page). We are aware of the importance of copyright regulations and we are confident that these regulations have not been breached in the information presented for the meso-zeaxanthin Wikipedia page. We feel that this page will be a good addition to Wikipedia and we are confident that readers of this page will find it accurate and interesting.

Sincerely,

Professor John Nolan Professor Stephen Beatty Dr Alfonso Prado-Cabrero

Hi Graeme, I have made the changes you asked of us. Can you restore our Wikipedia MZ page now? you can view the changes on www.meso-zeaxanthin.org Thank you, Niamh

Great! I have restored the page. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:36, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi Graeme, thank you. One question though, why is my figure 2 not showing up? It says I do not have permission to use it?? Niamh

License tagging for File:Location of meso-zeaxanthin at the macula.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Location of meso-zeaxanthin at the macula.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 12:05, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 14:30, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

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. ^{My name is}not^dave (talk/contribs) 12:44, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

• Please use secondary sources for medical articles, that is, studies which are meta-analyses of multiple clinical trials, or those which might be reported in a textbook. 'Fresh out the oven' clinical trials or journal reports are discouraged -- at the end of the day, articles shouldn't be a mere repository of the newest and latest trials of X drug or X disease. Thanks, ^{My name is}not^dave (talk/contribs) 12:44, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

  Hello, the references that were cited are from peer-reviewed journals. They are published papers, we have a duty to update our MZ page with the latest science and that is what I have done. Please restore the edits I made. Thanks you, Niamh (Macularcarotenoids (talk) 13:02, 21 November 2017 (UTC))

  As Wikipedia is a collaborative effort, nobody owns pages here. While they were peer-reviewed journals, the point of WP:MEDRS is to keep articles encyclopedic -- as it says at the top of the linked page -- Cite reviews, don't write them. The MEDRS guideline concerns itself not only with the origin of sources, but the type of source. It was not mentioned above by Graeme Bartlett that if you have a conflict of interest with a particular subject on Wikipedia, you must not edit that page directly, instead, go to the article's talk page, create a new section and request your edit, placing the {{request edit}} template at the top of the section (this was not a problem when the article was a draft, but when published as an article you can no longer make direct edits if you have a WP:COI). Also you must disclose if you are being paid for your edits, see WP:COIPAYDISCLOSE on how to do this. In addition, please make sure that this account is being used by only one person. Group accounts are not permitted. Thanks, ^{My name is}not^dave (talk/contribs) 13:06, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

  Hi, I know that a page is not owned by anyone, the two new studies that are cited in the new paragraph added are new and related to MZ. Only one person accesses the page with the macularcarotenoids account. no one is being paid. I feel it is important that the information which was added is uploaded. There is no conflict of interest. please advise on when the information will be re-uploaded. Thank you Macularcarotenoids (talk) 14:59, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
