Talk:Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust

message: Confirmation of the above fact can be found at the Psychoanalytic Electronic Publishing website . This is a site for professionals which aims to put original texts relating to the field online. In its introduction to "The Shaping of Psychiatry by War" by John Rawlins Rees, the site says, "The Salmon Lectures, delivered by the consulting psychiatrist to the British Army and Medical Director of the Tavistock Clinic, compose this volume. The author's extensive experience with psychiatry during World War I as well as in World War II makes it the expression of mellowed observation and judgment." The article made available there was in "The Psychoanalytic Quarterly" 14:544-545 (1945). --86.135.126.154 21:52, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This source says he was Medical Director, which is not the same as being the Director. However, with this source I am happy to add to the article that he was medical director. However, my unreferenced understanding (my girlfriend work for the Tavi) is that his Tavistock work was up to 1939, and his Amry services was after that: that he did not hold these positions at the same time. It should also be noted, for example, how many sources incorrectly cite him as a member of the staff of the Institute, which did not exist at that time. That is an example of how polluted secondary sources are, and how careful and cautious we must be. --Duncan 10:45, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The issue is not about blocking accurate information about Rees and Tavistock, the issue is sifting out the outlandish and often false claims originally spread by the fanatic LaRouchites. Much of the information on the web about Rees and Tavistock is flawed.--Cberlet 12:49, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I think we have to be extra-vigilant on these pages. I will add in the reference to Rees. --Duncan 13:33, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think your post re-emphasises the need for us to distinguish between these different organisations. LaRouchite orginality is not an issue here: however, claims associated with them are under explicit review here at Wikipedia. The very fact than people equate the TIHR with the Clinic, and move staff and activities between them to prove their points, is also a real issue.  --Duncan 15:14, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: At the absolute most, a single sentence, and probably not even that. This article is about the century-long history of the hospital; for us to give any kind of prominence to a single minor dispute, long before it's clear whether it will have any lasting impact, would be recentism in its purest form. ‑ Iridescent 16:49, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
