Henry S. Tanner (doctor) → Henry Samuel Tanner – Better disambiguation, doctor is anyone with advanced degree RAN (talk) 19:39, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

• Oppose. Sources indicate that subject was referenced either as "H. S. Tanner" or as "Henry S. Tanner" (per title page of his biography), but not by his full name. As for the qualifier, "(doctor)", a more apt form would be "(physician)", since the article's lead sentence specifies that he "was a physician who advocated fasting."     Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 21:25, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
• Oppose cf Henry Tanner In ictu oculi (talk) 10:10, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
• Oppose. Per WP:COMMONNAME and because "doctor" usually means a medical doctor. We say people with higher degrees have a doctorate, but not usually that they're a doctor. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:28, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Eclectic Medicine

The Eclectic Medical Institute in Cincinnati, Ohio, was founded in 1830 in protest against the conventional medicine and homeopathy of that time. Therefor, it can not be called a homeopahtic college, as is said in the article. I delete this phrase. Mendelo (talk) 17:12, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Freemason, Faithism and Shalam Colony

Tanner being a Freemason and ‘Faithist’ and his involvement in the Faithist ‘Shalam Colony’ might be worth mentioning. https://order-of-the-jackalope.com/suffer-little-children/ Mendelo (talk) 17:12, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
