[edit]

Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 10:24, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Doc James: Thank you for taking the time to review my edits of the page Paula method.

  • References: Were there particular references that you thought wrongly used/formatted? I used mainly the founder's published book (written in 1982, and republished in many editions and 3 languages since) and all the clinical trial papers I could find in PubMed/CrossRef. I also used 3 links to two websites, which represent the 2 recognized Paula Method institutions - an Israeli practitioner union, and the international institution holding copyright rights to the method and the founder's book. I used these in representing anecdotal case histories, and I represented those references as such, as opposed to scientific/medical research.
  • COI: Noted. The article as it stands (a) does not describe the the Paula Method accurately, and (b) uses a single reference on an efficacy issue that appears contentious in scientific literature. Can I ask you or someone in medical editorial group help me by requesting you to edit it, or to review my own edit to make sure I have not inserted any bias?
