Grandia01 is trying to use a ScienceDirect search to say that the tree is short-lived, attaching within the source the quote: "The lifespan of moringa tree can reach 20 years with a high production of leaves, pods and seeds, products which can be valorized in different markets."

There are problems using this source: 1) ScienceDirect is a non-specific retrieval site, providing many abstracts unrelated to the statement intended; a click on the above link of Grandia's edit here will show the results - Special:Diff/1275986200. Please don't use ScienceDirect as the only source, as it doesn't specifically give the bibliographic details of the source of interest.

2. the specific source is a 2018 journal called ''Bioresource Technology", authors Jegannathan Kenthorai Raman et al. If that source is really needed, it should be cited individually. However, a spam-detecting script shows that source as a red flag, indicating it appears to be unreliable.

3. Whether an additional source is needed to support the statement that the moringa tree is "short-lived" is doubtful, as this is specifically stated in the existing CABI source, which says under "Importance": "M. oleifera is a small, fast-growing and short-lived tropical tree". The statement of "short-lived" was already sufficiently sourced.

Perhaps Grandia01 can explain why an additional suspicious source for such a simple statement of "short-lived" is needed. Zefr (talk) 17:00, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
