Unsourced clinical claims introducing this dab page

[edit]

This unexplained reversion (@User:Dark-World25), restores unsourced clinical claims, such as,

The systems [listed in this dab page] are believed to provide some guidance to creating medical, nutritional, psychotherapeutic, or exercise programs for the person so classified.

How this might work in practice with, say, "Bertil Lundman's racial classification system" expounded in his book The Races and Peoples of Europe frankly makes me shudder.

I will raise the matter at WT:MED. 86.190.128.52 (talk) 11:23, 14 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

According to this source, Lundman's racist classification system seems to have been used (in actual practice) to identify an alleged predisposition to hereditary illness (which is a "medical" diagnosis), and to push forced sterilization on the supposedly "degenerate" individuals. Therefore, I think Lundman's classification system does fit in, as it was actually used, with this claims that it was "believed to provide some guidance to creating medical...programs for the person so classified".

Thanks WAID. Needless to say, the claim beginning "The systems are believed to..." (in the present tense) could appear to validate some current clinical belief in this horrifying system. I believe the current text [Constitution type or body type can refer to a number of attempts to classify human body shapes: ] is all that's needed for a dab page, and that appending any claims (or other content) regarding their usage would be superfluous.

@User:Dark-World25: On looking at your edit history more closely, I realise that your reversion appears to have been a random gf mistake (rather than any pov pushing :). So apologies for what now seems to me to have been an overreaction. 86.190.128.52 (talk) 23:50, 14 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@User:86.190.128.52 No worries, I was too hasty to judge the edit, so I'll apologise for that. Dark-World25 (talk) 07:29, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
