Talk:National Association for Chiropractic Medicine

[edit] Good start

Excellent! AED, please contact me by email. -- Fyslee 12:14, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

I am trying to figure out why you wrote "Excellent!" above. Who are you responding to? Thanks Steth 04:36, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
AED created the article, and it needed to be done, hence my comment. Similar articles need to be created for the other chiropractic organizations. -- Fyslee 12:15, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unreliable source removed

I have removed a reference to a source that is unreliable for a number of reasons:

a. The author is pseudonymous ("Anthony di Fabio" is the pen name of a science fiction writer). Thus it fails WP:V.

b. It contains blatant advocacy of Scientology's Suppressive Person Doctrine. Thus it is advocacy and propaganda.

c. The author openly states "I have not verified most of the materials referenced." Thus it fails WP:RS.

The reference was obviously inserted in the article as a negative POV attack on the NACM, and no regard for whether it was true seems to be in evidence. We aren't in the business of simply repeating attacks here. This is not tabloid journalism. -- Fyslee/talk 07:30, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article from Journal of Controversial Medicine

In 2002 the Journal of Controversial Medical Claims published a paper submitted by the NACM entitled "NACM and its argument with mainstream chiropractic health care."[1]
