What kind of threads do you want to see stay here, and what kind should be moved?

as it is the use of references is good but unless you have been formally educated in these areas then it can be difficult to make sense fully of what the abstracts mean. to say that questions need to be backed up by specific references would hugely limit the freedom to ask questions about novel ideas that many people who use this forum to expand their thoughts have.

show me a reference for a study on 4methyl-methcathinone (i dont know there might acctually be one...)

Which abstracts are difficult?? For primary English speakers, they all follow rather logically. This isn't advanced math or physics, which may practically require new languages to be learned, but pharm and chem. The language is pretty easy to follow if you don't mind looking up a few words. Or am I just reading abstracts that are easy?

And of course where there are no extant references, there would be no reason to include them. However, for the vast majority of compounds discussed here, there are copious references that never even get looked at, much less cited.

There may not be a specific reference discussing 4-MMC, but there are dozens that discuss related compounds that will be relevant in most discussions.

I never have had trouble reading abstracts. But you have to remember that not everyone has had education in these areas..

That's not hard for me to remember...
