message: The level of education in our society- lack of- regarding science is astounding re: your claims of self-publication sam wood, md, phd. Journals that publish research are editorial based and accept or reject articles based on extremely strict scientific criteria.  A scientist/physician scientist cannot 'self publish' these articles.  This is how the scientific community works.  So when you see articles from, for example, Nature Journal, this is not a self-published work.  You really need to familiarize yourself with the scientific peer process before making claims against scientists that they are self-publishing.  This is an extremely serious claim you are making against Dr. Wood.Kmhistory (talk) 17:21, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The self-published tag on Wikipedia does not refer to articles being self-published in the current sense - it refers to unacceptable references to articles written by the subject himself, not independent third-party coverage of those items, which is preferable. Are you denying that Wood wrote those papers? I doubt it, thus, since there are not references to independent coverage of those papers but direct links to article written by Wood, the tag is valid. Once again, it is YOU who misunderstands how Wikipedia functions. MikeWazowski (talk) 21:27, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

text: The relevant guideline for this circumstance is not the one on self-published sources, but on primary sources. In part, "Unless restricted by another policy, primary sources that have been reliably published may be used in Wikipedia, but only with care, because it is easy to misuse them." —C.Fred (talk) 22:42, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: At a glance, I don't really see many problems with the sourcing, especially since many are third-party and non-SPS. To clarify, SPS does not apply to Samuel's works, but the references we use.Jasper Deng (talk) 22:51, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. Mike, if you still disagree can you identify which self-published sources are used in the article? VQuakr (talk) 03:45, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
