See the edit summary (see: WP:ES) for comments by the reverting editor. Discuss it on the talk page of the article. There are special requirements for medical articles though I am not very familiar with them.

Edits on UTI
[edit]Hi Hopefairy. Thank you for your contribution to the Urinary tract infection article. However, for medical articles there are strict guidelines on what sources are acceptable. These can be found at Wikipedia:MEDRS. In general, review articles published in respected journals are the preferred source of information. In addition, many articles will have arrived at the point you find them after community consensus having been reached on certain points, and this may be found on the article's talk page.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Quick introduction to Wikipedia
- How to write a great article

- Identifying reliable sources for medicine-related articles (general advice)
- Wikipedia's Manual of Style for medicine-related articles (general style guide)
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date.
