message: Recommendations and opinions (advice) are not facts and are, therefore, inconsistent with the format of this encyclopedia.
The statement "In temperate climates, sow seed in spring for blooms that last throughout the summer and well into the fall", however worded as a 'how-to' recommendation, contains the fact: "In temperate climates, seeds sown in spring produce blooms that last throughout the summer and well into the fall"[1], and could/should be re-worded as such. "In areas of little winter freezing (USDA zones 8-11), sow seeds in autumn for winter color, plants will wither in subtropical summer" can be correctly re-worded as "In areas of little winter freezing (USDA zones 8-11), seeds may be sown in autumn for winter color; plants will wither in subtropical summer"[1].
Likewise, "It is recommended to deadhead (removal of dying flower heads) the plants regularly to maintain even blossom production" contains the fact: "Deadheading (removal of dying flower heads) the plants regularly maintains even blossom production"[1].
The statement "Be advised not to plant in vegetable gardens" is strictly an opinion, and should, therefore, be removed.
"Pharmacology" and "Constituents" are redundant and should be combined for more cohesive analysis.

message: Hello,
I understand that you can not make an essential oil from this plant, instead it's ingredient type would be "INFUSION" and the Extraction Method - INFUSION. Can someone help me to understand this?
Thank you so much, CainO'

message: This section contains the sentences: "The petals and pollen of Calendula officinalis contain triterpenoid esters and the carotenoids flavoxanthin and auroxanthin (antioxidants and the source of the yellow-orange coloration). The leaves and stems contain other carotenoids, mostly lutein (80%), zeaxanthin (5%), and beta-carotene." followed by [citation needed].
In looking back through "View history" this section was added as "The petals and pollen contain triterpenoid esters (an anti-inflammatory) and the carotenoids flavoxanthin and auroxanthin (antioxidants, and the source of the yellow-orange coloration).  The leaves and stems contain other carotenoids, mostly lutein (80%) and zeaxanthan (5%), and beta-carotene." by user:Jasonphollinger at 01:27, 28 June 2007 probably from . Dr. Sahelian has updated the page on January 8 2016 but the page probably contained these facts much earlier and still states them as of this latest update so the current version can reference Dr. Sahelian's page which contains each of these facts at various locations.
There also appear to be a number of literature articles that include these statements if needed. --Marshallsumter (talk) 20:22, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
