[edit] Hello,

Are you sure this document has been placed in the public domain? I do not see any advice that it has.

Works by the United States government aren't eligible for copyright and are automatically in the public domain. If this was created by the NIH (an arm of the department of Health and Human Services), then it's presumably public domain.

I just added a section I thought were needed but are not part of the refered article. Should I distinguish my additions from those of the original document? If so, how? Root4(one) 21:59, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tendonitis, bursitis, Impingement syndrome, and Rotator cuff tears

Originally this section was "Tendonitis, bursitis, Impingement syndrome" and then there was a section called "Rotator cuff tears". I performed a (very) quick merge of the two sections, but it needs work. The sections are related because (except for trauma, most cases of Rotator cuff tears are caused by Impingement syndrome (from my limited understanding). I had kept them separate but now I've got them together... I may do some thinking and come to believe the original organization was better. But in any case this needs work. 08:05, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Strange <link> recently Removed

I documented this at Wikipedia:Village Pump (technical) I wonder if it is a bug with popups? Root4(one) 05:49, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

I do use popups, and do get the weird html popping up occasionally in the text of a page, but never before in an edit box. Thanks for catching and fixing it. Ichibani 06:09, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suggested move

I Suggest article is renamed to shoulder pain: The content of the article is directed toward shoulder pain, and it seems the norm to call this type of article xxx pain, e.g back pain.LeeVJ (talk) 16:10, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. Sorting out the redirects for the pain split, and this page doesn't make sense - are there any shoulder problems that aren't painful? WLU (talk) 17:00, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
Strongly Disagree. I don't think I could disagree any more than I do! Pain is only one of the symptoms of these abnormalities. Root4(one) 00:33, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
