# Talk:Nobel Prize

Since most of the money from the Nobel foundation seems to be going to the partying - isn't somebody else supposed to pay for that if the will states "the interest on which is to be distributed annually as prizes"? 151.40.125.129 (talk) 07:06, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Why does the "history" part of the article put so much emphasis on that he found an obituary of himself in the newspaper? This feels odd that 40% of the section talks about this. 132.147.140.229 (talk) 14:25, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

A new 2024 study published in a Nature sub-journal provides data (that are missing from this 'Nobel Prize' article) on the Nobel Prize winners in science and would be a nice addition to this article, for example at the very end of the 'Statistics' section (or as 'Further reading' at the end of the article). Can you include the following additional one or two sentences below or at least the reference to the new Nature study so interested readers can read about the statistics on the age, gender, affiliation, religion etc. of the Nobel Prize winners?  

More statistics:
A 2024 study exploring all over 500 nobel-prize-winning scientists illustrates that 7% of nobel-prize discoveries were made by scientists over the age of 50 and only 1% over the age of 60. The gap in years between making nobel-prize discoveries and receiving the award is increasing over time across scientific fields, which illustrates that it is taking longer to recognise and select major breakthroughs.

Why? Yes it's an alternative word but the article itself is labeled "lobotomy" which is by far the more common word. 2607:FEA8:FF01:4FA6:D808:C1E0:2930:6129 (talk) 14:49, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
