Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 13:18, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. I was trying to change the language on the Alexander Technique page to match the source reference used in the second sentence. Currently the Alexander Technique is defined as an “alternative Therapy,” however teachers of the technique do not diagnose nor prescribe remedies for any kind of condition. This is important for a number of reasons but primarily it is factually incorrect. I am willing to concede to the language used on the NCCIH webpage who categorize the technique as a “complimentary health care supplement.” However it is really an education in use and functioning and can be learned regardless of need.

I am new to editing and welcome the opportunity to work with others to update this page. As there are many factual inconsistencies. I am curious to know why the english version of this page is so different from that of other languages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grovetree (talk • contribs)


 * You are editing the discussion page, not the article. You were changing someone else's suggestions about what the article should be. The article is locked to prevent editing by new users, you will not be able to directly change it until you have made more edits and become a more experienced Wikipedia editor. Since that page falls under special restrictions due to past disruption, you will be much better off if you gain that experience elsewhere - preferably on a topic that is unrelated to medical or health information. - MrOllie (talk) 21:38, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
