This article is in need of thorough improvement. It is a WP import.

This article was imported from WP in December 2007 and some very minor re-working was performed up until August 2008. Since then it has remained virtually untouched. Very, very large parts of the original WP article have simply been commented out on the article's edit page.

Someone who is familiar with essential oils should either review and re-work those commented out parts ... or they should be deleted. If that is not done in the next few weeks, I propose to completely delete those commented out parts. I don't have enough knowledge of essential oils to feel comfortable about re-working those commented out parts myself.

This article is a prime example of a WP import that was never re-done as it should be. Milton Beychok 02:58, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
