Osteopathic Oath

[edit]
  • ALT1:... that in 2000, the Osteopathic Oath was used by every osteopathic medical school in the US?

Created by Kerowyn (talk). Self nominated at 01:14, 29 November 2014 (UTC).

  • ALT2 ... that the Osteopathic Oath specifically forbids euthanasia, but does not address abortion? EEng (talk) 22:44, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
  • The character count is just under 1500 char. The wording of the Text doesn't count in this total. Yoninah (talk) 23:25, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
  • @Kerowyn, EEng, and Yoninah: I added a sentence to the lead, so it's long enough now. There is one unreferenced paragraph. ALT0 and ALT2 are not directly cited (or not cited at all). I like ALT2, so adding a citation for that would be good. If not, ALT1 is supported directly by an RS. For procedural reasons, I'll say now that it's new enough and meets core content policies, except for one thing: is the text public domain? If not, the text of the oath has to go. --Jakob (talk) 02:51, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
I'd be very surprised if this didn't fall under fair use, especially given the oath's educational/noncommercial purpose. EEng (talk) 03:20, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
I padded out the intro a little as well. I added a citation to make the source for ALT0 clearer, although I rather like ALT1. As for copyright status of the oath, I believe it's fair use per EEng. Thanks! Kerowyn Leave a note 06:58, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
This is good to go then. --Jakob (talk) 22:52, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
