Those hairy Latins
Good call. Latin has many words for hair, it seems. It all rather depends what type of hair it is.
Badly laid out, from Google Translate:
caesaries hair, curls, locks, long hair, hair of the beard
capillus - hair, beard, wool, hair of the beard
crinis = hair, long hair, tentacle, tail
capillatura - hair, false hair
coma - hair, coma, lock, plume, mane, aigrette
pilus - hair, trifle
saeta - thick, hair, bristle, coarse, brush
seta - thick, hair, bristle, coarse, brush
villus - hair, shaggy hair, nap of clothes
umbra - ghost, shade, shadow, dark, darkness, hair
plantaria - sets, slips, hair, cuttings
capillatio - hair
From this list I have no idea which one to choose Fiddle Faddle (talk) 13:40, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
Infobox location
Hi, thanks for tweaking anatomy articles. However, I noticed that your are systematically placing infoboxes above dablinks and maintenance tags. WP:LEAD recommends the opposite. Is there a good reason for changing this in anatomy articles? --Fama Clamosa (talk) 06:36, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
- OK. I thought those edits had something to do with the information on your user page: "users of Nomina Anatomica have easy access to information on wikipedia". I'm not going to revert you, but someone will sooner or later because most editors conform to the WP:MoS guidelines. Happy editing! --Fama Clamosa (talk) 14:41, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for posting at WP:MED2013GA. Great choice. Let me know if you need any assistance! Best. Biosthmors (talk) 00:00, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
No problem! I'll try to rephrase that a bit. =) Thanks for your work on anatomy articles. Do you want to bring any of those up to GA status? If so, feel free to list there still. Do you have any particular targets? No worries about feeling "unqualified". I brought DVT up to GA without a M.D. (I'm pre-med also). Thankfully, some M.D.s have given me feedback (see Wikipedia:Peer_review/Deep_vein_thrombosis/archive3). I'd like to get it to become a featured article relatively soon. Best! Biosthmors (talk) 00:21, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
I'll try to push it on someone! What if I tried to push human anatomy on you?! ;-) I could help out with that one. I should read up on that subject for myself anyways. Interested? Biosthmors (talk) 00:38, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
It seems like the whole Approaches section should be mostly meaningful prose instead of being a list in line with WP:PROSE and WP:SS. So section(s)/paragraph(s) should exist to summarize the human nervous system, etc. That's the biggest opportunity I see for improvement. Human body gets a lot of views too. I'm not sure why separate articles are really needed at this point, but whatever. Biosthmors (talk) 04:21, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
Translation request
Hi Jakob, is it possible for you to translate this page to Danish? ●Mehran Debate● 12:46, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- Sure. I will post a first draft below later along with a question or two. Before I start, you use the term reader, is it okay if I translate this to browser (That is the term used in Danish as well)?
- But when I am done you might want to throw it by another native Danish speaker since some of the terms like Portable Pre-indexed ZIM is hard to make a proper translation of without making it sound like a machine translation. --JakobSteenberg (talk) 12:55, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you very much buddy. This is excellent and adequate for me. So quick and nice job :) ●Mehran Debate● 15:07, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
I submitted your translation here. There is an article named Kiwix and it doesn't have a Danish version. It would be good if you can create this article in your Wikipedia too, you can do that in your free time and there is no rush! Thanks again and best wishes ●Mehran Debate● 05:23, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
Tibia
I was going through tibia and I noticed a fair amount of overlinking so I recommend trying the script at Wikipedia:Highlight duplicate links to spot these! I ordered some textbooks but it will be a while before they arrive. Not so much in time for February! Do you have an idea for what kind of anatomy article you might want to work on in March? I'd like for it to be something that lists at the WP:5000 consistently from being so popular. Best. Biosthmors (talk) 01:32, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, I will look into it. Hmm... I was planning on doing more work on the leg and since arteries and veins have been suggested on Anatomy project then starting on femoral artery and working my way down through out march. I have not found anything on the top5000 that really cought my interest, but I only got to 3000-and-something... any suggestions since you ask? --JakobSteenberg (talk) 10:01, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
Article Feedback deployment
Hey JakobSteenberg; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so. On Thursday and Friday the tool will be down for a major deployment; it should be up by Saturday, failing anything going wrong, and by Monday if something does :). Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 22:30, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Fascial spaces of the head and neck
Hi again. Work is ongoing on these articles. So far we have these which I have either created or reworked:
Wouldn't mind you taking a look at one of the pages I have reworked or created and pointing out any style errors, as I usually don't make anatomy articles. Thanks. There are also several more that need to be created or reworked I feel... will get around to these in the coming days:
- parapharyngeal space ( I think this is the name for the combined 2 spaces below which are continuous, but I am yet to confirm this properly)
- retropharyngeal space
- lateral pharyngeal space (currently a redirect back to parapharyngeal, but this may not be correct)
- infratemporal space / deep temporal space (which ever is found to be the more notable name.)
- superfical temporal space
- danger space / space 4 (not in neck but I want to rework the page anyway)
- canine space / infraorbital space (which ever is found to be the more notable name.)
- pretracheal space
- and a few other cervical ones, most are at stub already.
Lesion (talk) 13:53, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for feedback. I have altered the current headings of these facial space spaces to reflect the MEDMOS, but I don't have content to fill some of the others, other animals etc.
- A category I think would be good. Re a template, option is either to stick these new pages onto a template that already exists (maybe Template:Mouth anatomy or Template:Digestive tract- which already has a few pharyngeal fascial spaces listed) or create a new one. Not sure of best way to proceed with regards templates. There is no rush, it will take me a while to rework all the articles of this topic anyway. Lesion (talk) 10:55, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
- Not sure if fascial spaces have a ==function==, it is just connective tissue filling a space. Maybe you could say that fascia is to lubricate muscles so they can move a bit within the surrounding tissues...but I'm not sure the fascial spaces have a purpose. Lesion (talk) 12:54, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for creating that category. I have added 2 more pages to it, canine space and infratemporal space. I have thought more about what template(s) are best. Some of these spaces are not immediately adjacent to the mouth (and therefore also the digestive tract). Perhaps this would make the inclusion of some of them (e.g. superficial temporal space) on the templates for mouth anatomy and for digestive system anatomy inappropriate? I think a new template would be good. I might be able to copy an existing template with minimal changes. Thanks gain for your help and advice. Lesion (talk) 18:19, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

Eng. WP s.v. Ulna
Hello JakobSteenberg,
There is no etymology section s.v. Ulna. I think it is relevant for the reader to know that Latin ulna means both “elbow” and “forearm” – and so does Classical Greek ὠλένη. In fact, the primary meaning is “elbow”, cf. the root *elei-, “to bow”.
In Danish you can’t possibly use albue if you intend to say underarm – at least not today. The same obtains for English. In French it is a bit mixed-up, and French WP doesn’t really clear up things, see French WP s.v. Ulna, a word which has taken over “a part of” Latin ulna, so to say, i.e. the bigger bone of the forearm. The headword Ulna should therefore be changed to Cubitus. Even Modern Greek, when resuscitating the term ὠλένη (which is a purely medical term today), they adopted the semantic content from French.
I happen to be a classical scholar – at least I was until I proceeded in other directions – I bowed my arm, if you like. :- )
