Alternative Medicine

If this page even deserves to be included at all, since the entire article basically reads like an advertisement for a medical quackery diploma mill, then it definitely needs the Alternative Medicine template on the page to make it clear to everyone exactly what the place is. I would add it but I'm afraid don't know how. RyokoMocha FOR I AM NYARLATHOTEP, THE CRAWLING CHAOS 04:34, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This whole article seems to be lifted directly from a Pacific College catalog or website. I am a new editor. Can anyone help? None of it is blatantly untrue, but it certainly reads like an advertisement. It's so biased I don't know where to begin! --Cuttysoopreem (talk) 23:23, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request to review issue tags

Hello! I have recently rewritten and updated the entire article to address the issues previously flagged: added multiple reliable sources, removed promotional language, and ensured the subject's notability is well-supported.

Could someone please review the current state of the article and consider removing the maintenance templates? Thank you!

Follow-up on Request to Review Issue Tags

Hello! I'm following up on my previous request regarding the Pacific College of Health and Science article. I have substantially updated the article: - Added multiple independent, reliable sources - Removed promotional language - Improved the structure and citations to meet Wikipedia standards.

Could someone please review the current version and let me know if the maintenance templates can now be removed? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!

Hello @Hanni Montana! I restored the maintenance templates because there are several remaining issues.

Notably, the entire admissions section lacks citations. Of the citations, nearly a third are from the Pacific College of Health and Science.
Much of the content is still promotional. For instance, when describing the Chicago campus you stated "The new site offers upgraded learning spaces and access to a range of building amenities, like 24/7 security, concierge services, fitness centers, and on-site dining options. Its central location provides convenient access to CTA and Metra transit lines, major train stations, and bus routes." All of this language sounds as if you are selling this location. What makes a space upgraded? Who decided that it is convenient? Most importantly, how does this help a Wikipedia user understand what is core to the Pacific College of Health and Science? I would encourage you to look at articles for other, more established colleges to better understand what language and content should be used.
In terms of establishing notability, I think the article in Chinese Medicine and Culture does the best job of providing "significant coverage in... reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." However, the other sources tend to be from the College itself or routine coverage that lacks depth.

Lastly, most editors likely aren't reviewing talk pages for many articles. If you'd like feedback in the future, I'd recommend tagging recent editors of this article to get their attention. Vegantics (talk) 16:34, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
