Talk:MAKOplasty

note

This article describes a medical procedure but reads like an advertisement. It is unbalanced. It does not document the risks of the procedure.

A randomized controlled trial cannot make conclusions. A study cannot make conclusions. Study authors make conclusions. Results from the study have not been published in a peer-reviewed journal. The results were published in a press release issued by the manufacturer of the medical device. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Picturethepast32 (talk • contribs) 18:28, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your comment. If you check the references (along with the others available that were not added to the article), you will see that they are not press releases. Press releases cannot support articles on Wikipedia. I am removing your NPOV tag on the article as you state the article does not "document the risks of the procedure." The article documents what is in the sources, I cannot add content unless it comes from a reliable source. If you feel information should be added about the "risks," then provide a reliable source. Also, Wikipedia is not about "conclusions" as you state cannot be reached by a randomized control trial. Conclusions about what a study states are original research unless they are published in a source. --MovingandShaking (talk) 19:27, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
