Although the paragraph did not cite any sources, it's prudent to tag it "citation needed" instead of a straight deletion. Qigong's influence did extended beyond the border of China in terms of practice and clinical research. TheIntrospectorsfacts (talk) 14:56, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Read like fluffy brochure language. See WP:V. Bon courage (talk) 15:48, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed the language and the statements need a revamp supported by quality sources. As to your point, there are other fluffy elements in the article that requires a trim. The contemporary qigong section may be further developed and strengthened citing Palmer's Qigong Fever. TheIntrospectorsfacts (talk) 16:10, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
