Neuron(e)

Thanks for the interesting contribution to neuron about the variant spellings. This material doesn't really belong in the lead paragraph, but I have removed the comment about US/UK spelling differences from the lead. I've also added information from the paper you cite later in the article, and also added information about the relative usage in the US/UK. As you can see from the nGrams graph, the two spellings were about equally popular in 1900-1915 in both the US and the UK, but the popularity of neurone rose in the UK (to 60-70%) from about 1920-1960, while it fell steadily in the US. By 2000, the e spelling was down to 2% in the US (and that may be because the sources are miscategorized), while it remains at about 13% in the UK.

The details are hard to interpret because the nGrams sample and classification aren't perfect, but the trend seems clear.

May I invite you to register as a regular Wikipedia contributor with a name? This sort of edit is very useful, and we'd love to see you become a regular contributor! --Macrakis (talk) 20:59, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

August 2020

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Glymphatic system. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Zefr (talk) 22:12, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Copying licensed material requires attribution

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Arthur Van Gehuchten you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 10:28, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
