Nagalase
editNagalase previously linked to this article, which at the time contained substantial amounts of uncited material, and what appeared to be a three-paragraph copyvio from an abstract. Given the recent controversy regarding nagalase research (for example, this article retraction, we should be very careful about ensuring all statements on this subject are both adequately cited, and that a retraction search has been performed on the cited papers. -- The Anome (talk) 16:29, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
- The retractions were political and procedural, not scientific. The author cannot defend themselves, because they were found dead, floating in a river with a bullet in their chest, a few days after being raided by the FDA. The human studies were retracted, but there were multiple replications in rats.
- I think the best thing is to stick to wikipedia policy and mark statements with "citation needed"rather than censoring well known scientific facts because they are uncited. 199.48.230.176 (talk)
