Talk:Tendon

replies: text: Muscle is actually a different tissue to tendon so there is no "tendon muscle" in the way that you seem to be suggesting (although I believe it's possible that they can be viewed as a unit from a biomechanical perspective). Properly structured and implemented training does seem to have a beneficial effect on tendon but I doubt that it substantially increases tendon size. Ka Faraq Gatri (talk) 17:57, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: IIRC, it's somewhat unclear the effects of training on tendons, whether in humans or animal models.  Some studies find evidence of diameter change, others don't.  Some find differences in stiffness, others don't.  Even more confusing, *unloaded* tendons can show training effects. Suffice to say, it's still an area of active investigation, and dollars to donuts the answer will be really complex.  Mokele (talk) 00:56, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I have come to the Tendon article as part of the GOCE's May backlog elimination drive. However, the Healing section took me into something more complex. While I tried to copyedit that section, I noticed that the terms there may be too technical or jargon such that it becomes difficult to understand. Is it appropriate to continue copyediting, add the  tag, or just remove those things that makes it puzzling?

replies: text: I haven't done a full check but at least some of this content appears to be very close to a journal article . --LT910001 (talk) 10:49, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  It looks like a mere paraphrasing in some parts of the text. Then would that section instead win a , , , , a tag from Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup#Verifiability and sources, or a simplification only?

replies: text: I am not sure. It may be that the journal article based its content off what is here. Can you ask at GOCE about if there are any tools available or editors experienced in getting to the bottom of this? --LT910001 (talk) 04:49, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The Article Blamer tool can help determine when and by whom content was added. For example, it shows that the text "cytokines may be released by tenocytes", which is found in both places, was added to our article on 28 May 2009. Since the journal article was published early in 2012, I think we can be fairly confident that Messrs. Angela Notarnicola and Biagio Moretti copied their content from us, and not the other way round.

thread_title:  Tendon truma 

message: Linguistically based minor question. If tendon fibres are considered extracellular matrix, being that 'matrix' is usually defined to be stromatic in nature, are tendon fibres considered to be the matrix of tenocytes, or of muscle (or even nerve or general body) cells, being as they provide structure/support to those cells? Tendon fibres certainly aren't stromatic to tenocytes.
(This is for the sake of extremely detail edits; eg. 'extracellular matrix of tendons' being replaced with 'extracellular matrix in tendons',  but requires a common stance.) Gewath (talk) 10:22, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

message: There is some kind of weird spammy message showing at the bottom of the page, to the effect of "check out this new product". But when I go in to edit the page, I can't find it anywhere. Can someone with a better understanding of how Wikipedia works behind the scenes look into this and try to clean it up? Egpetersen (talk) 21:41, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It's on dozens of pages (try searching for "check out this new product"). Well spotted! I don't know how to remove it either. Dondervogel 2 (talk) 22:45, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

message: According to https://southernhillshospital.com/about/newsroom/framing-within-our-bodies and https://newsinhealth.nih.gov/2014/06/protect-your-tendons there is 4000 tendons?? or do they have like larger groups that we can group them into? - How often does it change how many Tendons there is in the human body, every few 100 years or so? - if not more often then that. The list sould be pretty static for a while? and it would make sense to maintain it manually - or is there databases for Humans Tendons somewhere from which one could pull data with a script?
The sources used for the following table is:
