Talk:Jorge Cham

Categorization

Why this page belongs to the category "Neuroprosthetics" is beyond me -- could anyone explain or otherwise edit? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maebert (talk • contribs) 09:57, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Fun

Am kind of enjoying the fact that Cham's comics spend a lot of time detailing the things grad students will do in the name of procrastination, and here I am, a grad student, editing this page and ensuring that the Stanford University page has a link to the PHD entry!

Speedy Delete

This is the author of PhD Comics. Perhaps the content should be merged -- or else it needs a lot of cleanup -- but it's definitely notable. -- dcclark (talk) 22:14, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I have cleaned the article a bit. A merge might still be in order, but it's certainly not a nonnotable bio any more. -- dcclark (talk) 22:19, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Don't delete. I created this article but I missed some editings. I am still editing it. This guy is definitely note worthy. This is not an autobio.--Mcks 22:21, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Name Pronounciation

I've heard that Jorge's name is pronounced in a non-obvious way (at least to an Englishman like me). Could this be added to the article? LukeSurl ^{t c} 12:27, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

But it's probably a reference to the first name, for which you need only this: it's Spanish, and the "j" and the "g" are both pronounced like an "h" in this context (the "j" always is; the "g" when before "e" and "i"). So "Jorge" is pronounced "hawr-heh". SamEV (talk) 04:37, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Nationality?

The lead says he's Panamanian, the categories mostly call him American. Is he both? SamEV (talk) 20:07, 4 January 2010 (UTC) Per his resume, he's a U.S. permanent resident, not citizen. SamEV (talk) 20:33, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

featured on NPR

Article says "He was featured on NPR on December 20th, 2010." - But what is NPR? Please explain so that the article can be more widely understood. Thanks. ViennaUK (talk) 10:44, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

Agreed. Also, a link to the "feature" (article or media file) would be useful. NPR is the National Public Radio. SabreWolfy (talk) 16:47, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Fixed, was not too difficult… --Chricho ∀ (talk) 18:03, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Panamanian

Shouldn't he be in a few more Panamanian categories? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.183.57.148 (talk) 23:57, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
