Primary sources
This
WP:PRIMARYCARE, they would only be useful if getting direct quotes or as a source alongside a secondary source (which establishes their notability). All content relying on his own papers in journals is not notable and should be removed. Zenomonoz (talk) 08:05, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

- @Zenomonoz, I've never engaged in a discussion regarding primary/non-primary sources, so it's likely you know more about Wikipedia's protocol on this topic than I do. Having said that, it seems to me that Deisseroth's research, based on his own credentials, would be notable regardless of where it was published. I suggest simply tagging the primary-sourced content individually (this is actually what I had in mind as a more useful alternative to placing a template at the top of the article, which seems non-specific and not overly helpful to readers). Let me know your thoughts. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 14:08, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- You can restore the removed content by finding secondary sources that cite the removed studies. E.g. check on Google scholar if books or academic reviews cite his study and discuss it, then they become notable. That would establish notability for inclusion. Otherwise, single studies are not necessarily notable enough for inclusion in an encylopedia. Zenomonoz (talk) 01:40, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
@User:Generalrelative, what do you find contentious about the primary-sourced content you have removed from this article? Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 15:52, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- We generally only consider details notable if they have been discussed in secondary sources. There are some exceptions, especially for basic biographical information. But keeping things rooted in secondary sources is one major way that we prevent BLPs from sprawling into curricula vitae. Generalrelative (talk) 17:50, 5 September 2023 (UTC)]
