Talk:Law school outlines

message: Law school outlines recently survived vfd. See: Talk:Law school outlines/Delete -- Wile E. Heresiarch 19:06, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

message: First, I rewrote.  I dropped a lot of oddly included material.  I'm not entirely sure why all the relatively opinionated language appeared in there.  A criticism section is probably worthwhile, but not all mixed up in the substantive material.
Second, I removed the extraneous information about legal education.  I think that this is a legitimate area, but it's not clear that it added anything to help identify what law school outlines actually do. Perhaps someone needs to write a Legal education article.

message: The statements of fact in the history section were out of chronological sequence, and contained redundancies. I put the section into chronological sequence and I removed the redundancies.
I removed these two contradictory statements.
 Barlow was joint Engineer [with Greathead?] to the project until his deathGreathead independently came up with his own designs 
They cannot both be simultaneously true.
I removed a substantial amount of "original research." Statements of opinion without any reference. In particular I removed this:
 In any competent history of tunnel design using shields, there ought to be recognition of three men by name for their built designs: Brunel, Beach, and Greathead. Whilst Barlow had an idea, he never actually built either his patented shield design or his later provisional patent design which was never ratified. While this is not a complete history of tunnel shields as more evidence is coming to light each year from digital archives around the world of older publications, the timeline of their development is becoming more coherent and clear than ever before as a result.
which is unique in my 15 years of editing (thousands of edits). It is pure opinion about the article, and contains no article-content.
I removed this
 Whilst many attribute the design shift from rectangular to cylindrical to Barlow, 
because it contains a canonical weasel word, "many", is a statement of opinion, and apears to be original research.

thread_title: why

message: I am removing the claim that euthymia is "distinguishable from the state of neurotypical people" as the cited article does not support it. This is the next line after the section quoted above from Fava & Bech (2016): "It is thus questionable whether subthreshold symptomatic periods truly represent euthymia or are simply a part of the manifestations of bipolar illness." The authors are not saying that euthymia isn't a normal mood state, and nowhere else in the article is such a claim made. Rather, the authors are suggesting that bipolar people may never truly be euthymic (regardless of the veracity of such a claim, this is what the source is stating). Therefore it is inaccurate to claim euthymia is "distinguishable from the state of neurotypical people". The authors are implying the opposite - that having subthreshold symptoms indicating continued presence of bipolar disorder negates the label of euthymia. 
Likely, neurocognitive differences between bipolar people and neurotypical people are always present regardless of mood statehttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5968641/. However, these neurocognitive differences cannot be boiled down to the mood state itself. Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder; that makes it definitionally different from a neurodevelopmental disorder like ADHD or ASD. We may, in the future, conclude that most people with bipolar have an underlying neurodevelopmental disorder which shapes the etiology of their mood disorder. But this time in psychiatry, the bipolar model blames abnormal mood states for differences in cognition, not the other way around. To state baselessly that euthymia is a neurodivergent mood state further deepens the bipolar model's overemphasis on mood state and underemphasis of baseline cognition.

If you find links to bands or clubs I didn't include, please put them in. This was everything I could find.
And a note about the bands: I exactly copied the bands listed in a City Weekly article to avoid interjecting my own personal bias. I believe more local bands could be included, but they should not have more detail than the bands listed in the article now.  If you want to include more than a few sentences of information, I think you ought to make a seperate article on the band and only put a couple of lines here.
