[edit] Botanical medicine

reads like a dicdef, BUT could it be expanded into a full article, or redirected somewhere? I'm not sure or I'd have speedy'd it... Master Thief Garrett 09:46, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Delete or Redirect - there is already an article named Herbalism. There is also a re-direction link Herbal medicine which takes one to Herbalism. The term Botanical medicine conveys the same meaning as Herbal medicine. Actually, the term Herbal medicine is more in currency, in the part of the world where the term has originated. If delete is not justified, than a redirection link to Herbalism may also be considered, because a number of persons may feel more comfortable to use the term Botanical medicine as herbalism is not familiar in many part of the word.--Bhadani 14:26, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Agree with Bhadani. Redirect to Herbalism. RickK 22:30, Apr 23, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Herbalism as per above. Since it's a pseudonym, it shouldn't be deleted but redirected, so that if someone searches by this more obscure name they will still find the relevant article! Master Thief Garrett 22:43, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect, synonymous with Herbal medicine (which in turn already redirects to Herbalism. --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 04:16, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
