Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. Yobol (talk) 21:21, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Glioblastoma. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Natureium (talk) 18:34, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
I was one of the founders of the Florida Brain Cancer 5K fundraiser for the Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure (ABC2). I have passionately followed GBM research for over 10 years now. No credible source in the world is proclaiming that cellphone radiation is a "non-risk". In fact, it's on our website as a possible risk factor [1], along with the World Health Organization[2], and the U.S. Food & Drug Administration [3]. I don't want to start an edit war. But, I do have to tell you that you're publishing inaccurate information that could very well lull people into a false sense of safety. All I'm trying to do is contribute the fact that the jury is still out on this.

- There was no need to copypaste the stuff above to my talk page. The place to discuss content is at the article talk page.
- Making claims about your personal authority, and citing your organization's own website, is going to get you precisely no where in Wikipedia. Please do read WP:MEDRS as well as WP:MEDCOI. Jytdog (talk) 19:24, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
Discretionary sanictions
edit
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding pseudoscience and fringe science, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
