message: This page redirects from Coleus amboinicus which redirects from Torbangun. But how similar are they? The papers discussing Coleus ambonicus as a galactogogue, state it has been used in Indonesia for centuries, which sounds like it conflicts with Plectranthus ambonics originating in Africa. +|||||||||||||||||||||||||+ (talk) 12:44, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

message: Claiming "none of which has been confirmed by scientific evidence" is misleading, you either allow the clarification, which does add relevant knowledge, or you also rephrase and perhaps say "however these specific claims have not be subject to human clinical trials, aside from...". Just stop being defensive and territorial about the fact that the section does need expanding to reflect the truth, and the whole truth with regard to the plant's confirmed utility and how that correlates with the traditional empirical evidence.

replies: text: This is animal research and is not a sufficient source to indicate any biological effects. When referring to medicinal properties, stronger evidence is needed per WP:MEDRS. Please stop edit warring on this (note WP:3RR) and discuss here per WP:BRD. The editor making a change in the article - you - has the burden of proof to supply a source indicating "properties" apply to the in vivo condition, especially in humans, i.e., no change applies until there is WP:CON. --Zefr (talk) 04:53, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

text: For human studies, Phytotherapy Research is a weak journal for publishing on a medical topic. The use of fenugreek to enhance lactation is certainly a fringe therapy in conventional medicine, and rare even in traditional medicine. Because it's a review in a journal with a passable impact factor of 3.1, I inserted a comment, but reverted my edit because the abstract does not contain enough information about P. amboinicus, and the full article requires a subscription. --Zefr (talk) 16:07, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

message: OK, I am a foodie, and a chemist (both novice, but with some edu and exp...), but I am taking a small objection to the term "meat salad" used in the lede.  A google search for the term right now yields a horrendous (to me) torrent of literal meat salads, and knowing something about asian quisines, I know deep down that these cannot be the same thing (without evidence to the contrary).  A quick search turns up plenty of results for "Thai Chicken Salad" or "Thai Beef Salad", which should be somewhat representative, but nothing in these results is remotely like what comes up for "meat salad".
I want to clarify this without changing the content.  I am...  call me a clarity warrior.  In that vein, I am replacing the term "meat salad" with "salad with meat".  I think this may be a case of either a translation gone awry, or a term that has been appropriated by vloggers.  If anyone objects, please state your reasons here, or get reverted.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Angryredplanet (talk • contribs) 04:04, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
