External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Duncan Napier. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/20100729123613/http://www.luath.co.uk:80/acatalog/Napier_s_History_of_Herbal_Healing.html to http://www.luath.co.uk/acatalog/Napier_s_History_of_Herbal_Healing.html/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Original Research

I have added an "Original Research" template, in reference to several citiations to letters in private collections. (But I have also taken the opportunity to add a reference to Eric Melvin's 2021 book about Napier.) Mike Marchmont (talk) 09:38, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

February 2022 edits

I have now rewritten large parts of this article. In doing so, my aims have been:

To add further information about Napier's life and work.
To reduce the information about the present Napier's business. This is only marginally connected with Napier himself.
To replace the references to primary research (private collections, etc.) with references to verifiable sources.
To improve the style and tone of the article.

I've also been able to provide some images to illustrate the article. Mike Marchmont (talk) 08:51, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
