No evidence of notability

[edit]

This article is mostly based on primary sources from Langevin. This does not establish her notability well enough, the requirement for article creation. Otherwise it's interesting reading and shows that acupuncture needles can be used to stretch tissues, which says nothing at all about the worth of acupuncture. Therefore I'm going to nominate this for deletion. The quick addition of independent sources may save it. Arguing, without such additions, will not save it. -- Brangifer (talk) 17:04, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've tweaked it a little, thanks for feedback -A1candidate (talk) 18:46, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Good work! -- Brangifer (talk) 20:29, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article still like resume

[edit]

A litiany of praises and achievements of a doctor concerned primarily with research on alternative medicine, which has already once been nominated for deletion, after which more resounding praise was added. Please check this article Edaham (talk) 22:43, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm I couldn't find the deletion discussion. —PaleoNeonate11:19, 17 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Plan to rewrite

[edit]

I was adding some changes to the NCCIH page when I realized that Helene Langevin's page needs a rewrite. She is now the director of NCCIH. As recommended in previous talk comments, I will make it less like a resume and add more secondary sources. Any comments or recommendations are welcome.

I'm looking forward to learning more about this person. Thanks for taking this on. Sgerbic (talk) 01:11, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"NCCIA director is a career, non-political position"

[edit]

The whole NCCIH (H, not A) is a political organization. It would not exist if certain politicians had not lobbied for more quackery and less science. The first director resigned because those politicians were unhappy with his pro-science stance. See NCCIH. So, yes, politics is important here. --Hob Gadling (talk) 10:01, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
