Breast cancer survivors' dragon boating

 * ... that international breast cancer survivors' dragon boating had its beginnings when University of British Columbia's Don McKenzie organized "Abreast in a Boat" as breast cancer survivor therapy?


 * Symbol question.svg needs a ref right after "It was later named Abreast in a Boat. He believed that this activity would benefit breast cancer survivors as it provided strenuous upper body activity in an aesthetically pleasing and socially supportive environment." and after the quote ending in: "...and active lives. It is making a difference.". Several refs need publisher parameters. Pumpkin Sky   talk  18:16, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you, PumpkinSky. I've left a message on the author's talk page. Maile66 (talk) 18:35, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
 * The author left a message on their talk page that they're away from their computer for a few days, but will check on this when they have computer access again.Maile66 (talk) 18:40, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, back from weekend away (can't do much on my smartphone, couldn't even work out how to sign note on my own talkpage or put it in right place). I've made multiple references to the McKenzie paper, though I thought that "his paper concludes" was adequate sourcing for the quote. I've added publisher details to all the refs, though several now have title "Home page" - or should the title be shown as being the same as the publisher, in these cases? The link to ref 3, the main McKenzie paper, as pdf on the Abreast in a Boat website is down - as is their whole website - but I've checked the paper on Highbeam and am assuming it's only a temporary glitch (though it's a full journal ref anyway, so the online availability is just an extra). I hope I've answered all the points raised - do get back to me if not. Thanks.  Pam  D  20:38, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg I found the journal paper on the medical journal's website and linked to it. The journal apparently requires a subscription; I was able to see it with subscription access, and I can't tell how much content can be seen without subscription access. The hook fact checks out, the article is cited adequately, dates and length are OK, and there's no indication of "too close" wording, so I think this is good to go. --Orlady (talk) 16:07, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
