== A tool to monitor and improve images in this Wikiproject ==
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.
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.
Some of the actions you can do with this tool are:
* Monitoring the visual content coverage in a Wikiproject

* Detecting articles needing images (eg. articles without images)
[[File:Information.svg|30px|left]] There is a requested move discussion at [[Talk:Electrical conduction system of the heart#Requested move 15 August 2022]] that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject.

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

== Nicolelis Lab Series ==
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:

== Interest in weighing in on Polyvagal theory? ==
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.

== Good article reassessment for [[Long-term potentiation]] ==
[[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]] ==
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)

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.

: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.
