Probably added for the sake of a spammy link to a pseudoscientific Web site, which I have removed. Little or no evidence on Google Books (beware of false matches from hyphenated regenerative medicine). Definition is shitty too. Equinox 02:05, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes, I have already looked on Google book search. There are a few positive hits, but I couldn't really find anything to support the current (strange) definition. SemperBlotto 08:32, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Definitely not added for the sake of any links, as you'll notice that I didn't contest your removal of my link which was to the .org, not the .com, which is a spam source. The site for Center of Excellence in Generative Medicine at the University of Bridgeport is the .org, not the .com. I guess some clever asshat bought up the .com and is using is a spam source.  :-/ I added the initial appearance in the academic medical textbook Fundamentals of Generative Medicine, first published last year, to the entry. Based on what I read on the CFI page, that would be the best reference. I'm curious to know why you guys say that my definition is "shitty" and/or "strange." I was the first resident in this new medical specialty, I practice generative medicine every day, and I'm trying to help increase awareness as it's just over 18 months old. Anyway, please clarify your concerns, and I'll work on improving it. Let me know if you have any additional questions/concerns, and once again, thanks for your help!

Ah, that spammy site led me down the wrong path, didn't it! This is now cited. I shortened the definition a little because it was very wordy. Thanks. Equinox 19:49, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
RFV passed - Thanks Equinox. Rivanlord 05:58, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
