External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Applied ethics. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20060207003751/http://www.blackwellpublishing.com:80/journal.asp?ref=0264-3758 to http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/journal.asp?ref=0264-3758

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

How can this article be improved?

Hi all--I made some changes to the lead, mainly adding inline citations and clarifying some of the language. I think there should be a few more significant changes to the page.

First, this bit: "An emerging typology for applied ethics[7] uses six domains to help improve organizations and social issues at the national and global level: Decision ethics, or ethical theories and ethical decision processes Professional ethics, or ethics to improve professionalism Clinical ethics, or ethics to improve our basic health needs Business ethics, or individual based morals to improve ethics in a business environment Organizational ethics, or ethics among organizations Social ethics, or ethics among nations and as one global unit"

I looked into the source and it looks like this is a typology specifically for health ethics, not applied ethics broadly speaking. As such, I think that part should perhaps be removed.

I think the "modern approach" section should be expanded on. I also think we could add sections on the more popular areas of applied ethics, including business ethics, bioethics, and environmental ethics.
