Methoxetamine edit
Hi SandalMelody. The harm reduction info you're adding to methoxetamine is not suitable to include at the moment, because as far as I am aware, no reliable sources have written about it. Wikipedia should not include information that hasn't already been published, and adding information based on your personal knowledge is forbidden - see WP:NOR. Over at mephedrone (which I wrote most of) it is included because someone wrote about it. It's not our job here to warn users of the harms of drugs, but hopefully the article is reasonably written to show the possible harms. From what I've read, the harms are similar to ketamine, so it is best for the article to point out that nothing is known, but that if readers want to know more about possible harms, they would be best off reading the ketamine article. Most annoyingly, at the moment, no one reliable (like doctors) has written about how it is more potent than ketamine, which I admit is a bit problematic, but there is nothing we can do about that - I'm sure people can find that kind of information on erowid or other drugs fora. Let me know if you've got any questions. Cheers SmartSE (talk) 15:33, 8 February 2012 (UTC) I saw this information was removed too. Perhaps if you had your workplace add it to their site it would be suitable for inclusion here. Testem (talk) 19:03, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
