Nobel Prize nominations
editNobel Prize nominations are not verifiable. see: [[1]] Repeating statements of Nobel Prize nominations made in the press does not meet the standard of RS. Ratagonia 05:21, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- This has been discussed ad nauseam. Please see prior discussions on this, as well as the actual citations that back up this information. Smee 05:26, 3 April 2007 (UTC).
- Perhaps friend Smee would enlighten me as to where it has been discussed ad nauseam. Publicists are well-known for claiming Nobel Prize nominations. see section on nominations under Nobel prize. Ratagonia 05:39, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Please see Talk:Margaret Singer/Archive 1. I will add more evidence mometarily. Smee 05:41, 3 April 2007 (UTC).
- Talk:Margaret_Singer/Archive_1#Request_for_Comment:_Margaret_Singer_Nobel_Prize_Nominations. Consensus was to keep' the information, with a caveat exactly as it was shown in the article, that is "Was reported to have been nominated..." It should be noted that I had wanted to keep the other multiple citations, but it was thought that one highly reputable citation such as the biography at Thomson Gale was good enough.

adjunct professor emeritus?
editnever hear of an "adjunct professor emeritus" if someone is that highly valued then they are never an adjunct or is this my ignorance? Weaponbb7 (talk) 00:45, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
- It is quite strange. The term is used frequently in connection with Margaret Singer, even in places that would be unlikely to deliberately slight her. On the other hand, as you say, the term doesn't seem to make sense: Emeritus is usually only awarded to people who have full professor status, and adjunct isn't even tenured. AndroidCat (talk) 07:09, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
Does the Landmark Education legal dispute warrant its own section? We have two paragraphs basically saying that she didn't say Landmark is a cult, that she had no firsthand knowledge of Landmark, and that she wouldn't recommend it. The placement here appears to be overkill. --Tgeairn (talk) 03:33, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
