Obesity

Thanks for your comments on Talk:Obesity and your message on my talkpage. I must say I had some difficulty following some of your comments (probably due to the formatting), but I'm sure that will sort itself out.

The reason you cannot presently edit obesity is quite simple: it is semi-protected. This will stop random people continuously vandalising the article with messages like "My teacher Mrs Jones is the fattest pesron in the wurld LOL 1!" Unfortunately, these edits vastly outstrip the number of constructive edits received from anonymous and brand-new accounts. Your account will be autoconfirmed after a few days and a number of constructive edits elsewhere on Misplaced Pages. Once this is the case, you are free to edit the article.

My view is that the obesity article is presently the right size and should not be expanded much more. Rather, existing content needs to be improved and supported with high-quality references (outline on reliable medical sources). If there is sufficient reason, it may be necessary to split off subarticles (e.g. medical consequences of obesity), but only if truly necessary. JFW | T@lk 18:37, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
