[edit]This article seems highly complimentary to the point of sounding like a CV. I am not familiar with the individual or the field, but it seems like there may be an NPOV issue. chrylis (talk) 03:55, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
There may be a hagiographic word or two, but the material seems pretty well sourced. What your complaint about the spelling or grammar is, I have no idea. I looked the article over carefully but can't find any spelling or grammar errors. If you can't be more clear, I will remove your tag. AFGO (talk) 13:23, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
- There are some minor punctuation errors and WP:STYLE issues I didn't have time to correct. As for the sourcing, that's why I tagged it NPOV and not autobiography; it sounds like there may be more to the story, but everything that is said seems to be reasonably accurate. --chrylis (talk) 16:07, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
- I agree that there were some hagiographic clauses; I have removed them. I hope this takes care of the NPOV dispute, as the rest of the material seems very well sourced (and the topic is relevant to Alzheimer's research and is worthy).
- I made a couple of punctuation changes. Other than that, I cannot find anything that would warrant the copy editing tag. I've certainly spent a lot of time correcting glaring style mistakes all over Wikipedia; this article's offenses (if any) don't seem to warrant a tag that seems to call the whole article into question, as it's difficult to argue that it's not at least clear.

- I agree. As Chrylis hasn't responded in a few days, I'll assume this dispute is resolved and remove the tags. Leonard Finger (talk) 17:06, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- The current revision has taken care of the concerns I had; I'm fine with the tag removal and am now unwatching. --chrylis (talk) 18:35, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
Dr. Berger?
[edit]I deleted a paragraph added by Truthsiani that was about someone named Dr. Berger that was unsourced and didn't belong on the Davis page. Perhaps someone should create a page for Dr. Berger? Patricia Meadows (talk) 13:04, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
