[edit] Removal of unsourced content

I removed the following unsourced content: "Burning devil's club on a fire as an incense is also believed to chase away evil spirits." By whom? When? --Walter Siegmund (talk) 04:45, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

I removed text plagiarized from NPR.org, reorganized the remaining text, and made a few other edits. Hopefully this cleans the article up enough to remove the accuracy/neutrality/clean-up/references banners. If someone else agrees with me, we can go ahead and remove them. -- BlueCanoe (talk) 22:50, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] devil's club noted on Michigan's Isle Royal in 1913 report

here's the site.

from the Botanical Gazette, Vol 55, number 1, page 15 -- devil's club noted at being "abundant."

[edit] glycyl acetic acid

I believe the barbs contain glycyl acetic acid, or something like that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwalle (talk • contribs) 19:50, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
