Material from John Travis (physician) was split to Illness-Wellness Continuum on 04 September 2014. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted so long as the latter page exists. Please leave this template in place to link the article histories and preserve this attribution. |

Hi User:Theroadislong - Thank you for taking the time to have a look at the article. Your edits were useful and I’ve made some amendments to the article with these in mind.
I reworded the part about the standard approach to medicine being to see wellness as an absence of illness so that now it reads as a viewpoint rather than a statement of fact. I think the ‘citation needed’ tag can be removed now but I’d be happy to hear your thoughts on this.
I’m hoping to find a source for the subject having created the first computerized HRA.
Also, I noticed that you had placed a COI tag on the article and felt that this might be misplaced, unless you had other concerns regarding the article? Thanks Fbell74 ( talk) 10:38, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
This is a request to include additional information relating to the article - mainly relating to factual information and sources.
Regarding closed request: looks like edits were implemented. That is fine with me as a delay of 7 months had elapsed. I WP:AGF and have not compared the requested items vs. the actual edit. Nevertheless I've closed the request in order to reduce the backlog. – S. Rich ( talk) 00:19, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. The request was not specific enough. You may consider leaving your comments on the Talk page or escalating significant issues to the conflict of interest noticeboard. |
DGG placed an alert on the article as s/he felt that the tone of the article lacked neutrality. Following on from this I made changes, which hopefully have addressed this issue. I would be grateful for an editor's perspective and if there aren't now any issues with the tone, to okay the removal of the alert. Fbell74 ( talk) 01:06, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
Promotionl writing is writing what the subject would like to have said about himself. It is not easy for a paid editor to avoid doing that. DGG ( talk ) 07:49, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
DGG - Thank you for taking the detailed feedback. I've made additional changes to the article based on this and included comments below relating to the points you raised. See what you think Fbell74 ( talk) 06:35, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
I’ve taken out the text relating to Project FatherMore.
Regarding the request edit template - I have looked through the discussion, but there doesn't seem to be a relevant, specific request for an outside editor to consider. As such, I will decline it. Regards, VB00 ( talk) 17:04, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
Since it still read promotionally, with uncited claims for firsts, I reorganized it, but I have some more to go. In order to present his career chronologically, there are some dates that need to be cleared up:
There is another problem: The illustration of the Continuum according to our rules can only be used to illustrate the article on the Continuum, or whatever is the single place where it is described. . It can not be used here as well, . I would normally simply remove it, except that it might make more sense to integrate the material on the Continuum into this article, since there remains a good deal of duplication. I'm still thinking about this. Since both were written by the same declared paid editor, it's really not for him to decide, but I'd still like his opinion. DGG ( talk ) 05:50, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
Hi DGG Sorry for the delay in responding to the post on your Talkpage of 13 August. I missed this completely until last weekend. I think the same in terms of whether to help paid editors or not. If a person has followed the requirements and declared their interest, but ironically this results in articles being dismissed out of hand then there’s little incentive to follow the rules.
The image of the Illness-Wellness Continuum seems to have disappeared from the article. I know you thought that if both articles were to be kept then the image should only appear on one (John Travis or Illness-Wellness Continuum), but the image also appears to have disappeared from the Illness-Wellness Continuum article. I wondered if you had any idea why?
Re the tags, would the close connection tag need to be on the main page? I thought that as the connection was disclosed on the Talkpage that this would satisfy the requirements? Fbell74 ( talk) 02:56, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
Hi DGG - Okay let's combine the two articles in one. Originally, the Illness-Wellness Continuum was part of the John Travis article, but then I moved it into a separate space. Do you think it makes most sense to include it in the John Travis article (essentially just reversing that change)? Fbell74 ( talk) 03:36, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
Hi DGG - I noticed that the image of the Illness-Wellness Continuum is back online again. I don't know if this was as a result of you looking into it, but if so, thank you. Separately, I think you mentioned you were going to have a look at the wording of this article re the issues that were highlighted by the alert. I haven't done anything more since adding in the Illness-Wellness Continuum information, but if there's anything you think I should do just let me know Fbell74 ( talk) 00:51, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
Is it reasonable to talk about the "alternative medicine concept of wellness"? After all The World Health Organization defined health in its broader sense in its 1948 constitution as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."
