I noticed that you said "republished with authorization" at Lymph Drainage Massage. However, you should know that publishing at Wikipedia releases your work under the GFDL (as it says when you edit). You might want to look over WP:C for more information about copyrights.

Edits of January 7
Hello. Tags have now been place on your three articles, suggesting that they be deleted. They overlap other articles, are not encyclopedic in nature, and primarily appear to be vehicles to post links to a commercial website. You are of course free to contest the deletion. For more information on what goes into good articles, see the information linked in the Welcome above. Kablammo 22:50, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
