This article makes inappropriate claims without sufficient evidence. Refs need to follow WP:MEDRS for medical claims.

This article is basically using sports people to advertise this technique. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:13, 30 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Undue weight

edit

The listing of famous people who have received this procedure is undue weight. This is of course a famous advertising technique. Rather than evidence you get famous people to endorse your product. Nearly all these comments on people getting the procedure are in passing. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:30, 30 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Doc James and Ozzie10aaaa: I started the initial list and have no medical background or stake in this procedure, though I now see how it could be construed as a subtle endoresement of sorts. I still believe the list meets WP:LISTN, as enough sources talk about the people—especially athletes—who have had the procedure. I propose starting a standalone list like List of baseball players who underwent Tommy John surgery, which I think should eliminate any "endorsement" concerns from having the list on the same page.—Bagumba (talk) 03:49, 1 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
Hum, okay that will deal with the weight issues.
Evidence for this procedure is poor. Appears celebrity endorsement is one of the main marketing techniques. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 16:45, 1 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Are there any reliable sources?

Looking under the generic name, to which the article has now been moved, I think their is enough to keep it. Has made a significant social impact. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 16:44, 30 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
