Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Palliative care— because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 08:03, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

By trying to improve the title, you have broken the internal link. Materialscientist (talk) 08:17, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

I am not sure why you are adding the word "diseases" multiple times throughout the article. This does not seem to help or make sense in most of the cases. For example, you changed "Treatments for the alleviation of symptoms were viewed as hazardous and seen as inviting addiction and other unwanted side effects." to "Treatments for the alleviation of diseases symptoms were viewed as hazardous and seen as inviting addiction and other unwanted side effects.", which doesn't make sense. Are you sure these changes are what you intended to do? — Earwig ^talk 09:18, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

(Reply to your message on my talk page) Symptom and disease are completely different words, though. The first usage of symptom in the article is linked, so readers who aren't familiar with the word will be able to find out what it means. Leaving that aside, most of the changes you made are hard to understand. To give another example: in the first paragraph, you changed it to "It focuses on providing patients with relief from the diseases: symptoms, pain, physical stress, ...". But "symptoms", "pain", "stress", etc. aren't diseases, they're caused by diseases. — Earwig ^talk 10:29, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Agreed. On Palliative sedation, it's inaccurate to replace "symptoms" with "diseases", as palliative care can be provided to, for instance, someone injured in a car crash. clpo13_(talk) 10:31, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
