A portion of the Forbes article pertaining to prostate cancer testing, in response to MRAs indicating that Obama exclueds men in favor of women... "However, there are legitimate scientific debates regarding PSA screening. PSA testing, like all screening tests, is not 100% accurate. Some patients who initially test positive will undergo further biopsy or surgery that show it was a false alarm. Others who test positive will have slow-growing cancers that do not require treatment â€" i.e., they will die from unrelated conditions before their prostate cancers pose a threat. Some patients who test positive will suffer unavoidable complications from subsequent “downstream†biopsies or surgeries that in retrospect weren’t necessary. PSA testing can thus cause some patients more harm than good." *excludes men in favor of women [correction in the first sentence].

It doesn't look like a violation to me. Make sure you appeal it. I'm not sure what the question was that you answered, I haven't seen it. Maybe they expect you to post a link or something when quoting a source. Not sure. But I think it's informative and can't see anything wrong with it. Good luck if you appealed it!

When it comes to mens issues, you feminists find any excuse under the sun to dismiss them.
Men die five years earlier than women, yet you see no problem with this. You are morally and intellectually empty. - There are many possibilities.
It could be a violation for reasons not revealed in what you have chosen to quote here. You may not be giving us your entire answer and you don't give the question. Without those, it's impossible to say. I remember a question from a few days ago in which the someone asked why their answer was in violation. At first it appeared there was no violation, but when an answerer pulled up the entire cached version, the violation became apparent.
Obviously many answers get reported that are not violations, either because someone does not understand the guidelines, wanted to delete that specific answer, or is just randomly causing havoc.
Take a good honest look at the question and your entire answer. If you feel you accurately addressed the question according the guidelines, then consider appealing.
The guidelines are given in the source following: - The issue here I think may have been a following the question and answer format issue. If this came from an active reporter then it would be likely have been reported as a non-qeustion. "What do you think" posts are considered by the reporting community to be non-questions posted by the asker simply to express their views on a subject and to share content rather than actively seeking knowledge. As an answer, if it didn't directly answer the question that would be the problem. Granted that's assuming you were reported by an active reporter. If you are trying to avoid having a post get a boot out the door, place a little be more thought in how a question or answer is worded. Use secondary sources to support and help to strengthen a question or answer, but don't use them as a crutch holding up a bum foot.
- Was it a Q nor an A? Yahoo wants that question and answer format a lot. I got reported for being
chatty a couple of times.
