WP:BLP concerns

Editor User:Galassi is assigning theoretical ideas (ie: chelation therapy - in the current version now simply called vein "cleanup") to Dr. Zamboni for which no references have so far shown to exist. This sort of editing has the potential to tarnish the scientific reputation of this doctor. As a result of this concern I am reverting more than 3 times to preserve this doctor's reputation. Sincerely, 87.231.131.227 (talk) 19:22, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The above editor has since edited the article and moved away from the original research of "chelation therapy" he/she introduced however there is still a concern in that the word "noticed" is used relative to iron and "heavy metals" in the brain. There are no references saying Dr. Zamboni "noticed" anything and there are no references talking about "heavy metals" (plural) being a problem. One reference describes iron as a "heavy metal" (singular) described as a potential cause in prior medical literature. The terminology Heavy metal (chemistry) is not scientific particularly with respect to iron which has never been described scientifically as a "heavy metal". 87.231.131.227 (talk) 19:34, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Everything is sourced, there is no WP:OR. Zamboni mentioned heavy metals in a lecture he gave a few days ago. That would be sourced eventually.-Galassi (talk) 20:16, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Articles don't rely upon "eventual sources" to support content (crystal ball anyone?) and there is no source for Dr. Zamboni "noticing" anything. On these two issues alone your editing is problematic here. 87.231.131.227 (talk) 20:21, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality

This article makes it look like it is generally accepted that multiple sclerosis is caused by chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency. It is in fact generally accepted among experts in this field that it is not. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:26, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think the problem is not the neutrality of the article, but the lack of the encyclopedics criteria. Is it possible to ask the community if it's the case to delete the article?--LuigiPetrella (talk) 17:58, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I significantly toned down the CCSVI section, as I agree it made it sound significantly less controversial than it actually is. I kept the CVI, cerebral venous drainage, and diagnosis on painting sections for the time being as all of this is outside my field, but I'm not sure we need to keep them? It doesn't seem that notable, and looks like someone used Wikipedia to write/spice up their own CV; having entire sections on that seems way out of proportion. This is why I kept the "neutrality" template for now. Arp242 (talk) 14:51, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
