Walter Freudenthal

Created by Whispyhistory (talk). Self-nominated at 19:55, 23 August 2018 (UTC).

Interesting life, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. When and by whom was he known as Freudenthal of Wroclaw? Striking the ALT because some unknown Latin thing will probably not raise enough curiosity. Consider mentioning "dermatologist", for the original, or it will be distinguishing one unknown thing (could be a mushroom) from another. In the article, can we something about three red links called notable? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:14, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
ALT2: ... that dermatologist Walter Freudenthal distinguished Keratoma senile from Verruca senilis, before leaving Nazi-occupied Europe?
ALT3: ... that Walter Freudenthal distinguished the skin conditions Keratoma senile from Verruca senilis, before leaving Nazi-occupied Europe?
Thank you @Gerda Arendt:. Alternate hooks above. I'll try and blue link the reds soon. Many books and journals just call him Freudenthal of Wroclaw, (colleagues in the field), but doesn't say anywhere where it originated from. I've altered it in article to clarify.

Thank you. I believe that he was called FoW in books and journals, but don't think that happened before he worked in England, therefore find the improved hooks possibly historically wrong, talking about him before. Needs rewording, or using his real name, perhaps explaining "became known as". As readers probably don't know either name, why not real? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:22, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
sure, changed to real name to avoid confusion. Whispyhistory (talk) 06:07, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
