Tobacco control
Has an impact factor of 5.9. Peer reviewed and a review of the current state of things. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:15, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- The claim that this journal is "below dailymail when it comes to MEDRS" Is bizarre. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:20, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- It is ridiculous to claim that a simple article like this written by a math & economics student meets the standard for medical claims and you know that. Don't we use reviews anymore? But as long as "they are with us" it's ok with you, right?--TMCk (talk) 22:43, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- It is a review published in a well respected journal. It is the best avaliable source on this topic.
- What makes you say they are a "student". And even so why would that matter? It is more important that it is published by a journal known for reliability. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 23:45, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- It is not a review and this is the guy who wrote the article.--TMCk (talk) 23:56, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- Okay the person who wrote the article is still in University? So... Lots of research is published by university students (some of it without even their names on it).
- Additionally this is not really a health claim but simple a comment on the lack of evidence. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:55, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Renaming?
Hello, there is a serious issue with the renaming that occured over the week-end: IQOS is the current name of the device (just like Marlboro, Longbeach, whatever other brand there is out there). Heatstick was the old name of the the tobacco sticks when IQOS was first test-marketed around 2014 (now they are called Heets, although some markets could still have Marlboro Heatsticks, I'm not 100% sure). Unless someone plans to rename iPhone to "wireless telephone device", of which there are also "many", I do not think this renaming is appropriate (or makes sense). Also this article duplicates Heat Not Burn which is the correct product category. I can't change it back for some reason, so can someone please do it? Thank you, SimonDes (talk) 06:58, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
