message: It's odd to describe her as a neuroscientist just because she has a PhD. Normally one works beyond earning their degree to constitute a career and be called a scientist (or whatever occupation for that matter-it applies to economics, teaching, etc. too). Do other sources call her a neuroscientist or just state that she has a PhD? If it's the latter, calling her a neuroscientist would fall under wp:synth.
:Sources have called her a neuroscientist. See pieces like these for examples. Snuggums (talk / edits) 01:35, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: No worries. If that's what the sources say (even though I disagree with it), keep it in. Hollth (talk) 01:44, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

text: I removed this a while back (without seeing this discussion). She is a neuroscientist but she's not notable for being a neuroscientist; she's notable for being an actress (albeit sources like to point out she's also a neuroscientist). If she were to become notable in her neuroscience career, to the point where it would justify a Wikipedia article even without her acting career, then it would make sense to re-add it. –CWenger (^ • @) 12:37, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

message: Just wondering if there's a reason her personal life is below her filmography, usually it goes before.--QueerFilmNerd (talk) 19:23, 19 August 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: No idea why it was like that before, but thanks for the rearrangement. Snuggums (talk / edits) 22:05, 19 August 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Hm, weird. It was reverted so I'm not going to start an edit war over it, it just seems unusual since on most pages it goes early life, some career stuff, personal life, then filmography.--QueerFilmNerd (talk) 18:45, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: While there is, unfortunately, no hard and fast rule, the general BLP/bio pattern is: early life, career and professional accomplishments, then personal life. Since notability usually derives from professional work and accomplishments, not the personal life, that order makes sense. But the other user has since reordered them on the aesthetic of prose sections first, as if that matters. I disagree. But again, there is no definitive order. X4n6 (talk) 01:38, 23 August 2017 (UTC)

message: Hi Wikipedians,
I want to request that a page be created for Miss Mayim's lifestyle website Groknation. It provides a wide range of poignant sections that are very beneficial.
They cater to women and include wide-ranging topics such as religion, popular culture, parenting, and Hollywood.  Temitope oyesanya (talk) 19:02, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: A more appropriate venue for such requests would probably be WP:Articles for creation, or you can boldy go ahead and create a draft for the page yourself if you have sufficient resources. Snuggums (talk / edits) 22:52, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

text: Present the draft link to someone at articles for creation and they'll assess whether it's worth transferring over to the main space. Snuggums (talk / edits) 19:04, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

message: The source in interview with her done by Tablet Magazine.Does any one really claim that interview is fake?--Shrike (talk) 03:47, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not so much Tablet that's a concern as it is whether "Jewcy" is trusted to be accurate. Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:04, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Its interview with her.Do you think its a fake interview?--Shrike (talk) 04:15, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Given that there are dubious publications that fabricate those altogether, I'd worry this could be the case unless someone can verify beyond reasonable doubt that it's a trusted site. Snuggums (talk / edits) 13:07, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

message: She's a anti-vaxxer 
I think it's important to include this since the issue always dominates other anti-vaxxer articles  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:646:8700:7CE1:1007:5B1:42CD:6566 (talk) 00:40, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: Bialik said it, it's in the source (her blog post). I modified the wording to make it her claim rather than an objective fact. Schazjmd (talk) 15:19, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  "she didn't have the grades to get into medical school" 

message: I disagree with adding American anti-vaccination activists per WP:CATDEF, however  (who added the category) is choosing to revert rather than discuss. The article contains two sentences about vaccinations; one is a quote from 12 years ago, and the second states that her children are vaccinated and she intends to get both the flu and COVID vaccines. How does that make a person an "anti-vaccination activist"? Schazjmd (talk) 17:31, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Just reverted it myself. Definitely goes against sources, including this one. (As a note, I've just started recently editing this article due to the recent Jeopardy! news.) Magitroopa (talk) 17:36, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

message: Her written works section needs review. She wrote her dissertation, "Hypothalamic regulation in relation to maladaptive, obsessive-compulsive, affiliative, and satiety behaviors in Prader-Willi syndrome" which is cited correctly. The journal article she co-authored, "Cortical correlates of affective vs. linguistic prosody: An fMRI study" is also correct. She however, is not an author of "The Parallel Brain: The Cognitive Neuroscience of the Corpus Callosum" she was only a research assistant and only added commentary which can be found on the library.stonybrook.edu library.stonybrook.edu  see Commentary 15.1. Sensorimotor Interaction in Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum / Marco Iacoboni, Mayim H. Bialik and Eran Zaidel. There are many other contributors who added commentary, but are not listed as Mayim Bialik is, as an author. A Google Scholar search for The Parallel Brain, Miyak H. Bialik highlights her addition. 70.249.178.9 (talk) 14:40, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
