Talk:Hai-Sha Ni

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page seems to be of extremely dubious worth - a google search turns up 6 hits, 2 of which are his own website and one is the patient recommendation website I removed. As an anonymously modifiable source, it's out as a reliable source. Could the content be rolled into other pages? I don't really see the merit of keeping the whole page.

I agree about the "extremely dubious worth", and suggest the complete removal of this page as it appears to be simply promoting (with caveats) a particular Chinese medicine practitioner, out of the large number in the world. Do all doctors of Western medicine get their own pages too? There are no publications in refereed journals as is required for the validation of medical treatments (of any kind). This at least should be flagged. AussieBoy 07:03, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

I restored the supporting websites by his benefited patients. Not every doctor has attracted benefited patients who set up supporting websites.--Leo 03:09, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I wish you guys knew some chinese and try to google his name in Chinese. Otherwise only narrow-minded comments. --Leo 03:06, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

link google results: Results 1 - 10 of about 5,790 Chinese (Simplified) and English pages for 倪海厦. (0.32 seconds)

There is a chinese wikipedia, but since the links are all meaningless to a non-chinese reader, they are not appropriate here. Since I can't read chinese, I can't tell if they are peer-reviewed articles about his accupuncture techniques or advertisements for used cars. It's possible that this is not the venue for this particular article. WLU 14:49, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

There are millions people know both English and Chinese. Some of them are interested in Traditional Chinese medicine. They can do peer-review if you cannot. An article cannot interest all readers. Just look at the statistics of most clicked wiki pages. Some of them are purely meaningless to English readers not from U.S.A. I will delete this article immediately if the founder says it is a maintream only, American English wiki. (Doesn't it sound like TV or newspaper?). Fortunately, the good thing about wiki is that minorities have the rights to speak out. --Leo 15:20, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
