Talk:Lesser auricular nerve

message: Does anybody know if the "Lesser auricular nerve" is a currently accepted term? It doesn't seem to have much support. I notice that the Greater auricular nerve is also known as the "great auricular nerve", which makes me speculate that in the past there was acceptance for a "greater" and "lesser" auricular nerve, but because the lesser auricular nerve is not now a commonly used term (no hits on PubMed), the "greater" evolved into "great". The original creator of the page hasn't contributed in eight months, so it is unlikely that we would get more clarification from that source. Unless anyone objects, I think this page should be redirected to Greater auricular nerve. --Arcadian 20:05, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

message: This page lists Nick Medley as a "Notable Resident", and as I noticed there wasn't a Wikipedia article on the man, I decided to google him. The only find I seem to be able to get is a very small-time actor with the name. If he is not an actual person, deletion should occur. His addition seemed sloppy at first (I corrected the grammar and dash type errors), and the Red Sox's name was misspelt. May be vandalism. Thoughts on removal?

message: Jimmy Buffett gave his last appearance in an impromptu concert in Portsmouth in early July 2023. I’ve tried to add this to our Wikipedia page twice: first it was deleted for lack of a reference (seems fair) and then, because someone else decided it doesn’t belong here. This seems wrong given the only other reference to music for Portsmouth is a plaque that was installed at the Roger Williams campus about the Beach Boys. If anyone knows how to override this—-especially someone who actually lives in Portsmouth and knows the importance of this event to our community—-please help. 2600:8805:9B03:FE00:2CF3:DE82:9C48:962B (talk) 11:40, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

thread_title: Chordates

message: The article currently states: "Neoteny, in which somatic (or physical) development is slowed, resulting in a sexually mature juvenile or larval form." The bit about a sexually mature juvenile form is more associated with Progenesis, and results from the increased rate of sexual development, not a slowing or halting of somatic development. The first claim regarding Neoteny is correct, neoteny is indeed the slowing in somatic development, but it does not result in a sexually mature larval form; it results in a mature adult form that retains juvenile characteristics of other organisms, for example Man's relatively rounded cranium, which at full maturity is characteristic of only juvenile primates, not adults.
The bullet about Progenesis is also incorrect: "Progenesis, in which development is halted before full maturity." Progenesis is the increased rate of sexual development in organisms with no change in the rate of somatic development, leading to a sexually mature juvenile or larval form. I noticed the confusion could be due to the mistaken attribution of sexually mature larval forms with Neoteny, as addressed above.
Could someone who's more comfortable with editing the live articles fix these small inaccuracies, please?
