message: I would recommend to rename the article Dika. I wanted to post my entry under Dika, but since Dika redirects here I made it here. 
The whole article is about Irvingia gabonensis only the listed species in the taxobox are not, that is why I would recommend to call it Dika.

thread_title: Feedback to tha article

message: I recently added an edit under pharmacological uses for African Mango as follows:
A recent study revealed that antioxidant activity of the fermented Mango leaves generally increased with increasing fermented extract concentration as did the fermented extracts' polyphenol and flavonoid contents.[5] The antioxidant properties of fermented mango leaf extracts suggest the fermented extracts may be useful in developing health food and fermentation-based beauty products.
But now I see that the entire section has been deleted.  Shall I add my edit under uses?

thread_title:  pharmacological uses...what happened to this section? 

message: This text and reference below were removed from the article for the following reasons: a) a study that concludes the RCTs had "irregularities in testing methods and reporting" means the studies were poorly done and their results are spurious and unreliable, i.e., not worth including in an encyclopedia as if they were factual; b) the journal in which the study was reported is a low-quality journal and not a WP:MEDRS quality source per this WP guideline. The Journal of Dietary Supplements has an impact factor of 1.05 (indicative of poor quality), far too low to be used as a medical source. --Zefr (talk) 16:53, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: (1) Please give a reference on the threshold impact factor that makes a scientific journal credible. (2) A more accurate citation of the earlier dated source suggested by Zefr makes African mango look more credible as a dietary supplement. Well, so be it.

replies: text: These are high impact factor journals, with around 7 being the lowest acceptable quality for clinically valid sources. With an impact factor of 1, J Diet Suppl is a weak non-medical journal by any standards, and is far from acceptable as a MEDRS source. --Zefr (talk) 19:11, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: There is no impact factor threshold in WP:MEDRS. And please stop deliberately distort conclusions from sources. 05:02, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
