Article seems overly focused on UK version of geriatrics, rather than a more generic description of it. Glacialfury ( talk) 23:55, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
GOAL The goal of this edit is to understand the perception of ageing, ways to 'delay' ageing with natural ingredients, and the use of cosmeceuticals.
As a medical student in the UK, I have recently been told that we are to refer to geriatrics/health care of the elderly as Health Care of the Elderly, as is has fewer connotations and is deemed to be less insulting to patients. I see that there is currently no wikipedia page called Health Care of the Elderly, so would like to propose two points:
Unfortunately, I can't find any sources to back up this potential change in nom-culture, but I've not had the time to look very deeply at all. Opinions, anyone? Ged3000 ( talk) 14:16, 18 May 2008 (UTC) (edit to improve formatting, Ged3000 ( talk) 14:16, 18 May 2008 (UTC))
many arabic physician were interested in the field of geriatrics and some of them wrote separate books on this subject so i was encouraged by a contribution that 1st mentioned Avecinna mentioning of elderly health to add what i knew about the other arabic physicians or arabic civilization physicians share in the development of the field of geriatrics.-- Ashashyou ( talk) 21:33, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Someone named Ashashyou has gone to a great deal of trouble making a mess of this page.
I have added subspecialities threads, and started making pages for the subspecialities. Hope we can all help.-- Ashashyou ( talk) 12:39, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
This entire paragraph reads like an advertising brochure for Yale's eldercare program. I'm not sure that it belongs in a general encyclopedia entry, since it is unclear what it adds to understanding the topic. mattelfesso ( talk) 23:13, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello, Please modify the Hospital Elder Life Program section to reflect the following:
"The Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP)[1][2] is a model of hospital care developed by Dr. Sharon Inouye [SI1] in 1995 at the Yale University School of Medicine. While developed to prevent delirium and functional decline of older adults during hospitalization, the program creates age-friendly care across all settings, based on principles and protocols to optimize care for older adults. The primary goals of the program (since its inception in 1995) are:
- Maintaining cognitive and physical functioning of high risk older adults throughout hospitalization - Maximizing independence at discharge - Assisting with the transition from hospital to home - Preventing unplanned hospital readmissions"

The goal of this edit is to understand the perception of ageing, the use of natural ingredients to 'delay' ageing, and the use of cosmeceutical
1) This article has addressed all the goals intended. 2) None of the information seems plagiarized to best of my understanding 3) The edits in this article do contribute to the overall value of this article -- Inshaqari ( talk) 02:11, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
Goals: 1) correct grammar and syntax to reduce reader confusion
1) Do the group's edits improve the article as described in the Wikipedia peer review "Guiding framework"? Yes, the article is generally easy to read and free from major grammatical errors. 2) Has the group achieved its overall goals for improvement? The group has some great area of potential development such as "aging and cosmeceuticals". They had mentioned a goal of exploring the natural products and this could be an interesting area to try to expand into the evidence behind "anti-aging" products, etc. Another area of potential development could be the "Pharmacology" section. This would be an excellent area to bring updates and relevance by exploring more recent evidence (it's currently from 2006), for example, studies that highlight important areas such as adherence and inappropriate medication use. Ellenberkley ( talk) 00:09, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
Person A: does the draft submission reflect a neutral point of view? The draft submission reflects a neutral point of view that does not seem to persuade the reader in a particular way. The "Giants" of geriatrics section could be a great area of development to add evidence since these issues that geriatrics are facing are increasing with the increasing life expectancy. Ellenberkley ( talk) 22:41, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
Person B:
Person C: The edits are consistent with Wikipedia's manual of style, but would suggest more specification in Self-perception of aging and cosmetics, as the 'self-perception' is not explicitly stated. Jhpham ( talk)
Person D: The group contribution are written in layman's term and does not display any evidence of plagiarism.
