Reference listed twice

References 3 and 13 on the current list appear to be to the same article. I'm not quite sure I could fix this without screwing something up, so I'm posting this request for someone more practiced at such edits to fix it. Thank you! Critterkeeper (talk) 01:39, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Principles of HAES

Is anyone aware of a good source that lists the principles of HAES? One source was previously cited because its authors had very clearly spelled out their understanding of what the principles were... but editors have challenged the source on the basis of quality (it was an erratum). We can try to pull together a bunch of sources that indicate what specific proponents think that HAES is, but it would be better if there is a single reliable source that describes the approach in a relatively representative way. Anyone know of something that would serve that purpose? Thanks. ParticipantObserver (talk) 16:39, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request

"in some cases losing a large amount of weight could in fact be extremely unhealthy for some" -- this is a bit weaselly, with too many words. Could cut it down to e.g. "in some cases losing a large amount of weight can be unhealthy". 86.152.204.211 (talk) 19:24, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
