Healthline is a medical resource that is substantially written by non-expert freelance writers and reviewed by non-expert advisors. The content is frequently incorrect misinformation, sometimes dangerously so. Due to the heightened requirements for [[WP:Biomedical information|biomedical]] and [[WP:MEDRS|medical sources]] on Wikipedia, the consensus of editors in the 2023 RfC was to deprecate Healthline as an unusable source that cannot meet [[WP:MEDRS]] and to blacklist Healthline for the safety and well-being of our readers. References to Healthline should be removed from Wikipedia.
