thread_title:  Psychotherapy? 

message: At the moment there are two very similar articles, this one Naprapathy and the other one Naprapathic medicine. Since "Naprapathy" is the older more complete article and has a simpler name more in-line with what I think people will be searching for and what people usually call it, I suggested that "Naprapathic medicine" be merged into this article.

thread_title:  Merger 

message: This article is way below the bar for notability, which greatly impedes efforts to find reliable sources for verification. This seems to be an extremely fringe alt-med profession. Delta13C (talk) 11:30, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, we only have a mention in Quackwatch to lend it notability, which ain't enough really. AfD maybe? (Add: a brief mention here too. Maybe it's worth a sentence at Chiropractic?) Alexbrn (talk) 11:45, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I was about to add that there are two states that license naprapathic folks: Illinois and New Mexico. Regardless, there is little chance that this article meets GNG. I think some remarks in chiropractic would be the best choice. Delta13C (talk) 12:42, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

text: A search of Google Books finds numerous mentions, including one that gives a description from an encyclopedia. Maybe it isn't as well known now as it once was, but notability is not temporary. This edit summary is misleading, as not only was it not merged, but no discussion took place on the talk page of the article it was proposed to merge this to, and there is no mention of this topic in the article. Discussion should be started there, and then if consensus is reached, it can be merged. If that fails and you still doubt its notability, you can take it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Until a decision is made, this should be restored to a suitable version - such as the last revision before the redirect. Peter James (talk) 22:19, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Dubious 

message: The redirect from Naprapathy to Chiropractic should be eliminated and we should work to create an article that explains what naprapathy is. It is not well known in the united states, but that is exactly why it needs its own article. Naprapathy is widely known in Scandinavian countries and there are many schools for it around the world. This is not pseudo science, and a cursory search under google scholar will show many peer reviewed articles studying this therapeutic technique. It certainly deserves it's own article. We should go back to the last revision before the redirect. The decision to redirect was made by 2 users without the consensus of the talk page.

replies: text: We have one or two reasonable sources saying this is an offshoot of chiropractic and we must reflect them. The merge has been reviewed and it stands. You could try and argue for a split at Chiropractic, but without sources it'd be futile. Also be aware of our WP:SOCK policy. Alexbrn (talk) 09:13, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
