2017 Published review of medical content on Wikipedia

Hi Zefr, I hope you don't mind me reaching out to you as an experienced editor; I'm hoping to get a steer as to best practice. I was looking at the Hydrotherapy page this evening, and it initially struck me as being vague and unhelpful. When I started looking into the sources, it quickly became obvious that it was not up to the usual standards. I've left a comment on the talk page outlining my concerns and offering collaboration in editing, but from the History there doesn't seem to be much activity there so I'm not sure that anyone will respond. I'm inclined to start removing unsourced material, but the sourcing is so poor, and the information so vague, that I'm worried there will be little left: I don't want to ne accused of vandalism, so I'd be grateful for your opinion on the best way to proceed. Thanks Girth Summit (talk) 22:30, 29 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Girth Summit. There are a few good editors in the History, but the topic and article are generally not rigorous enough for attracting much WP:MED involvement. Since you've started the Talk page process of inviting collaboration, wait to see what response occurs, then, if none (as may happen), I suggest being bold, WP:BB, to revise the content and remove and/or substitute sources. I'll watch and may jump in. Thanks. --Zefr (talk) 22:48, 29 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the advice - I'll give it a few days then do as you suggest. Please do jump in if you think I'm on the wrong track!Girth Summit (talk) 23:07, 29 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
