== A tool to monitor and improve images in this Wikiproject ==
== Is Project Neuroscience entry for Jean Francois Gariepy being considered for deletion? ==
Hi there! I am not part of this Wikiproject, but I am a Wikigraphist. I am interested in improving Wikipedia’s visual content and I built a tool that could help detect visual gaps in Wikiprojects.
 
I called it [[User:MingoBerlingo/Visual content assessment tool|Visual Content Assessment Tool]], or simply VCAT.
I will keep this brief and respectful, as I don't know the protocols for your project.
Was surprised to see that post-doc dropout and noted white supremacist JF Gariepy had an entry in project Neuroscience. There wasn't a lot of ink on the Talk page, so it may have been pushed through by a fan of his (many of the notability citations are for his negative, non scientific exploits, and one of them links to a proven falsehood about his "leaving" academia.)
 
A working version of VCAT with data for Wikiproject Neuroscience already extracted by me on 26/07/2023 can be found at [https://aquets.github.io/VCAT-dashboard/#/dashboard?data=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Aquets/VCAT-data-extractor/main/Examples/wp_Neuroscience.json VCAT-dashboard]. You can always extract fresh data for any Wikiproject using the [https://aquets.github.io/VCAT-dashboard/#/extraction extraction tool], a command line tool I created for this purpose.
I don't want to turn this into a gripe session, as he deserves a fair hearing like anyone else. Just popped in to mention it, because at least in my opinion, its kind of a shocking inclusion into an otherwise scientific and noble effort on Wiki.
 
Some of the actions you can do with this tool are:

* Monitoring the visual content coverage in a Wikiproject
== FAR for philosophy of mind ==
* Detecting articles needing images (eg. articles without images)
* Detecting low resolution images to improve (eg. raster diagrams to be vectorized)
 
Then you can ask for image creation or vectorization on the Graphics Lab.
I have nominated [[Philosophy of mind]] for a [[Wikipedia:Featured article review/Philosophy of mind/archive1|featured article review here]]. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets [[Wikipedia:What is a featured article?|featured article criteria]]. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are [[Wikipedia:Featured article review|here]].

What do you think? Could it be a useful tool?

Hello, I'm looking for a review of [[Draft:Neal Kassell|Neal Kassell]], a significant contributor to the Gamma Knife and Focused Ultrasound. Should be relatively quick.

The [[Miguel Nicolelis]] Lab published, for free, two volumes of their neuroscience work. I saw that some of them are under a Wikisource friendly CC license, but I'm not sure if it applies to all of them:

Thanks, [[User:Erick Soares3|Erick Soares3]] ([[User talk:Erick Soares3|talk]]) 23:11, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
i would like to add the method of patch-seq to Wikipedia. for those of you who don't know patch-seq is a method developed about 4 years ago to capture the electrophysiological morphological and genetic information of a neuron in one shot.
 
:New article: [[Walk Again Project]]. [[User:Erick Soares3|Erick Soares3]] ([[User talk:Erick Soares3|talk]]) 17:21, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
the basic method is that a hollow needle-like electrical probe stimulates the neuron to determine its electrophysiology, then sucks the nucleus through the problem for sequencing then injects a tracer dye to image the neuron's morphology.
 
== Interest in weighing in on Polyvagal theory? ==
this video explains it nicely: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8pv84m1U_M
 
I’m posting here because I think this topic could be interesting to members of this WikiProject. Currently there’s a discussion at [[Talk:Polyvagal theory #Discussion: representation of one author’s viewpoint]] regarding the undue weight given to a critical minority opinion. [[User:Ian Oelsner|Ian Oelsner]] ([[User talk:Ian Oelsner|talk]]) 22:09, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
but since its a combination technique I don't know weather it should be included in the article [[single-cell sequencing]] , or some neuroscience article or maybe an article of its own
 
== Good article reassessment for [[Long-term potentiation]] ==
i would like a consensus opinion on this matter since this method is of high importance to solving the "cell types" problem which is a cornerstone of modern neuroscience
[[Long-term potentiation]] has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments to the [[Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/Long-term potentiation/1|reassessment page]]. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status may be removed from the article. [[User:Z1720|Z1720]] ([[User talk:Z1720|talk]]) 04:38, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
 
== Request to merge [[Frisson]] into [[Goose bumps]] ==
on that note, i also did not find an article on the concept of neuron cell types at all or any of its associated theories and opinions at all id like to create such an article but am conflicted: should a create a article for neuron cell types alone or a geenral biology article about cell types?
 
I have noticed that these two articles talk about the same thing. I have created a proposal on [[Goose bumps]]'s talk page to discuss a merger. [[Special:Contributions/80.0.166.171|80.0.166.171]] ([[User talk:80.0.166.171|talk]]) 01:08, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
any input on thi matter is very much appreciated.
 
== Requested move at [[Talk:Neuromorphic engineering#Requested move 24 August 2024]] ==
thank you in advance to all who contribute [[User:RJJ4y7|RJJ4y7]] ([[User talk:RJJ4y7|talk]]) 19:43, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
[[File:Information.svg|30px|left]] There is a requested move discussion at [[Talk:Neuromorphic engineering#Requested move 24 August 2024]] that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. [[User:RodRabelo7|RodRabelo7]] ([[User talk:RodRabelo7|talk]]) 01:51, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
 
== Please check your priority ratings ==
 
An editor first labeled [[Legality of cannabis]] as top-importance for this group, and after I removed the rating, has [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Legality_of_cannabis&diff=prev&oldid=1247813728 changed it] to high-importance. Please decide for yourselves how you'd like to have it assessed.
 
I've seen a couple of editors "upgrade" their favorite subjects, perhaps in the mistaken belief that this will result in more editors working on the articles. I specifically suggest taking a look at what's in [[:Category:Top-importance neuroscience articles]] ([[CLARITY]]? [[Hebbian theory]]? [[Tractography]]?) and [[:Category:High-importance neuroscience articles]] to see whether it reflects your group's goals and preferences. [[User:WhatamIdoing|WhatamIdoing]] ([[User talk:WhatamIdoing|talk]]) 04:43, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
 
:Thanks for the note. I changed it down to low for neuro. I don't mind leaving it at high for pharmacology. As for checking the other ratings, I'll leave that to other editors. --[[User:Tryptofish|Tryptofish]] ([[User talk:Tryptofish|talk]]) 21:42, 26 September 2024 (UTC)

::WPMED set a standard years ago of 100 top-priority and 1,000 high-priority articles. The high-priority group has crept up a bit over the years. I glanced through about half the list, fixed some obvious errors, and posted a list of some others for discussion. I'll probably to the same for the rest of the list later. I thought it might be easier if one person organized it. If everyone has a look at "some", there's a risk that we'll all carefully review the articles at the start of the alphabet and nobody will look at the ones towards the end.
