Talk:Miguel Nicolelis

Has There Been Any Criticism?

I'm wondering if there has been any criticism to his ideas from privacy advocates? Wouldn't this technology amount to mind-reading? AVKent882 (talk) 19:45, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

New information

I added some information about dr. Nicolelis's big project concerning the 2014 FIFA World Cup, as well as the reference for it. GratoGuilherme (talk) 23:55, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Brain to Brain Criticism

I removed the following sentences of the Brain to Brain section: "This work comes with its critics who state that there are flaws in their scientific methods and that there is lack of controls. They claim that some of the scientific claims are rendered "far-fetched at best." One researcher stated the work was similar to a "poor Hollywood science fiction script." [7]"

I removed them because this is material poorly sources (no source for the first two sentences) and the third one is potentially libellous and harmful, and makes no contribution at all to a scientific discussion about the matter, but is rather derogatory and sarcastic. I understand this is a policy of Wikipedia, and since this material has been repeatedly inserted, I am reporting this to the noticeboard.

I think the source at the end of the removed material adequately sources the entire statement. To the extent that negative information is from reliable sources, it can be appropriate to have it in the article. Monty₈₄₅ 16:49, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

The Scientist is a reliable source and the quoted content is in the article, so it is not potentially libelous in anyway. It is also a critique about the research not Nicolelis. @Iinnels, I realize that you may have a connection with Nicolelis, but I wouldn't worry much about the reporting of scientific criticism he is getting on Wikipedia. How this ultimately affects his research depends on how the relevant scientific community views his research.I am One of Many (talk) 16:36, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
