Someone's revert-warring

Yo

I wrote this twice now in the addiction section and before I could log a talk page someone reverted it back to a misleading interpretation of the results, the policy on revert-wars is clear, if you don't engage here, I'll ask for arbitration to confirm my edits:

"There is some correlational evidence that the use of Cannabis by mothers during - and also by both parents before - pregnancy could lead to epigenetic alterations in neonates that are sometimes associated with an increased risk of various psychiatric classifications later in life, though this is not confirmed with long-term study of the infants in question, nor are these alterations exclusively associated with negative outcomes. Of note in this research is the lack of diagnostic pathology and failure to record existing mental health histories of parents independent of substance use."

I always sign my name and stamp it talonx89.12.68.91 (talk) 22:51, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You sign an edit by logging in to use a user name, then the system logs it for you. This revert was justified because the content is speculative, excessive opinion and synthesis, WP:SYNTH, and the sources are not rigorous reviews per WP:SCIRS. Zefr (talk) 23:10, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

89.12.68.91 (talk, if you quote your source directly, it's more likely that no one will object. BooleanQuackery (talk) 08:10, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Bruce Lipton

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6438088/ says this doctor wrote or co-authored three books on epigenetics. I believe he has been introduced into the article in the past and then removed. This seems like a problem our intrepid Wiki editors can solve. Dscotese (talk) 21:54, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
