I am archiving this article and its talk page and starting us over
Here goes. For future reference only, here is:
- Complementary_and_alternative_medicine/article_archive
- Talk:Complementary_and_alternative_medicine/archive.
What I've done
- I would recommend giving this article a simple name, maybe just "Alternative medicine"
- I would recommend moving debates to specific subtopics, such as debated, on an acupuncture article, the perceived arguments for and against, specifically, acupuncture
- I am moving Howard's comments to my talk page, for now, because he made them before I had finished this archiving action; he may choose to come back here if he wishes, I just want to give others a chance to think first
- Countersuggestion: could everyone look at integrative medicine and see if it already is moving in the right direction?
- Also, while it's very early, look at phytomedicine and see if it has the flavor of specific argument. It may not yet have enough detail; there are, for example, a few plant-derived remedies that show evidence of efficacy. With the particular regulatory and economic structure in the U.S., there's no incentive to do full studies and standardization for indications and warnings. Germany, however, has a system that is much friendlier to a combination of scientific and traditional approaches. China has yet another. Howard C. Berkowitz 00:03, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
