Talk:Chiropractor

message: As long as the article is called chiropractor the lead should in its first sentence define this. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 14:55, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Chiropractor versus chiropractic degree

message: The following sections are largely identical:
* Chiropractor#Regulation_and_accreditation
* Chiropractic_education#Licensure_and_regulation
The content should be merged and then moved to their logical place at Chiropractic_education#Licensure_and_regulation. What are your thoughts? -- Brangifer (talk) 22:08, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: An article merge may be better. Smk65536 (talk) 12:55, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Before an article merge I think the page name should be clarified and changed to Chiropractic degree. QuackGuru (talk) 18:34, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like theres a consensus. Should we start doing the merge? Smk65536 (talk) 20:14, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: @Smk65536 something needs to be done as the chiropractor and Chiropractic education are almost identical and bring up essentially the same material. There is also confusion amongst users which is the academic degree/education page and which is the practitioner. 108.171.131.160 (talk) 21:38, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

text: User:Smk65536, first I think the title should be changed to Chiropractic degree. QuackGuru (talk) 01:35, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Let's move duplicated content to Chiropractic education 

message: "A chiropractor is a person who practices chiropractic, a health care profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on general health.[1] Chiropractors emphasize manual and manipulative therapy for the treatment of joint dysfunctions. Chiropractic is generally classified as complementary/alternative medicine.[2]"
None of this text in the lede summarises the body. The text has nothing to do with this article.  QuackGuru (talk) 08:15, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, You say that Defining a Chiropractor has nothing to do with the article on Chiropractors? WP:COMPETENCE alarm bells are ringing. SPACKlick (talk) 11:16, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This article is about the chiropractic degree not chiropractors specifically. QuackGuru (talk) 11:18, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: QuackGuru is correct, this article is about the degree, not about Chiropractors. Smk65536 (talk) 12:49, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: User:Smk65536, the title is still wrong. The entire page is about the chiropractic degree except for the first sentence. The first sentence doe snot summarise the body because this page is not about chiropractors in general. QuackGuru (talk) 04:07, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps this should be merged into Chiropractic education?  Smk65536 (talk) 15:09, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep. The degree is about the education. QuackGuru (talk) 18:07, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

text: This page is about the degree. The heading of this article was a mistake. The first paragraph in the lede has turns into a WP:COATRACK which does not summarise the body. QuackGuru (talk) 16:24, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: That would incorrect there is a seperate page for Chiropractic education. The problem stems from several users moving and copy-pasting existing articles. This page is clearly about the practitioner not the degree. Information about the degree should located with the education page. For that reason the existing heading for this page is accurate. 108.171.131.160 (talk) 21:34, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not a summary of the body 

message: "A chiropractor is a person who practices chiropractic, a health care profession specialising in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on general health.[1] Chiropractors emphasize manual and manipulative therapy for the treatment of joint dysfunctions. Chiropractic is generally classified as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM),[2] with some aspects considered pseudoscientific.[3][4][5]" None of this content belongs in the lede or this article. 
User:Bigbeezy123 is partly correctly. Rather than deleting the content first I would recommend changing the title to Chiropractic degree. After the title is changed then the first paragraph should be deleted. QuackGuru (talk) 22:21, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
