Help request

{{helpme}} I apologize for not signing my posts. How does the Ganeden Biotech page look now? Does is still read as an advertisement? --Probiotictracker (talk) 18:37, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. I have moved your help request down here, and put it into a section. It is easier to follow things if you make a new section at the end of your talk page for each new conversation.

I will look at the article now, and reply here soon. Cheers,  Chzz  ►  18:58, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Reference: Mikhail Gershenzon

(When discussing an article, please provide a link by putting the name as [[Mikhail Gershenzon]], as above)

I looked at the article, and I think that there are still some problems that need to be addressed.

The main issue is that not all of the facts are supported by references to reliable sources. For example, how can I, as a reader, verify that it is the largest seller of over-the-counter probiotics in the United States, it was founded in 1997, that the CSO identified a delivery system for lactic acid producing bacteria, etc etc.

So - it isn't written like an advertisement any more, and I will remove that tag, but I will add another saying that the references need improving.

For more help, you can either;

• Leave a message on my own talk page; OR
• Use a {{helpme}} - please create a new section at the end of your own talk page, put {{helpme}}, and ask your question - remember to 'sign' your name by putting ~~~~ at the end; OR
• Talk to us live.
