globalize

i realize the article is US focused. should maybe rename it "Botanical drugs in the US" or add more on other countries.... Jytdog (talk) 17:40, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I like the way you've incorporated some info about other countries. WhatamIdoing (talk) 23:50, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

alternative medicine project header

i removed the alt medicine header that WhatamIdoing added here. (thanks for looking it over, btw) these are drugs that have been through FDA review - medicine, not alt medicine. happy to discuss. Jytdog (talk) 17:44, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Alt med is pretty quiet, so I doubt they'll care. However, "things we're not, but that get confused with us" is a pretty typical thing for a project to support. WhatamIdoing (talk) 23:49, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
