Headline[edit]

First noun is in plural, but verb is in singular. I think this might be unintentional. --Gryllida (talk) 00:07, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Tweaked to plural. --Pi zero (talk) 02:45, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Review status[edit]

I've checked the intro section. --Pi zero (talk) 19:19, 26 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so...[edit]

@Acagastya: I would suggest removing words like "So" and "Okay" from the start of questions. I think there are about seven or eight such instances. --Green Giant (talk) 17:20, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Green Giant: keeping that is closer to the source. But I will keep it in mind for tomorrow's interview.

Gazzola[edit]

@Acagastya: The video on commons should be renamed for spelling of Dr Gazzola's name. --Pi zero (talk) 15:37, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Review of revision 4562145 [Passed][edit]

Just thank you[edit]

Thank you for sharing this with us, and thank you for having taken the time to retranscribe the video interview. It is of course spoken language so sometimes some approximative words that make it a little more difficult to understand the meaning, but for the rest it's perfect, even for someone like me who is not at all familiar with neurosciences.

Thanks again, also and mostly to the two neuroscientists for sharing their work and knowledge through here.

Etherpad link for questions[edit]

Most of the questions were formed here: Etherpad link.

Typo[edit]

“So, if you don't have a *cingluate* cortex and you hurt yourself, you still feel that you've cut yourself, but you don't mind.” Davileci (talk) 11:23, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed; thanks. --Pi zero (talk) 12:14, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Edit[edit]

{{editprotected}} "The study showed the actor rat, which pressed the lever tend to switch the lever to avoid shocking the other rat." This doesn't make sense. It should have been more like "which tended to switch levers." Does this need a correction? Heavy Water (talk) 19:13, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

How about "The study showed the actor rat, which pressed the lever, tended to switch the lever to avoid shocking the other rat." ... Added a comma and changed the tense of tend. SVTCobra 09:46, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that actually sounds much better than what I mentioned. Heavy Water (talk) 16:11, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done --SVTCobra 16:16, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
