Possible copypaste violation

The article was flagged as a possible copyright violation. It is not acceptable merely to remove the warning without a credible reason. (The reason given in the edit note is just childish).

If (as seems likely) http://www.research-journal.net/en/Oligodendroglioma-Conclusions-from-a-clinical-series-of-90-operated-cases.html was used as a source, then (a) that source must be acknowledged in the reference and (b) it must be properly wp:paraphrased and (c) given that the issue has been flagged, a note should be made at this talk page to record the actions that have been taken in response to the flag. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 11:31, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi all, just to follow-up with the above, the sentence A recent long-term study... new standard of care. is identical to a sentence at this paper. It looks like the sentence-in-question was added to this article on February 12, 2020 when Wname1 pasted in material from the article Oligodendroglioma (The diff is no longer visible; Dianaa has hidden it due to an unrelated copyvio). The sentence has been at Oligodendroglioma since at least February 2014, before the paper in question was published (June 29, 2014). So it looks like that paper copied it from Wikipedia, rather than the other way around. So no action required here. If you see anything else you'd like me to look into (or if I've missed part of the rationale for the tag) please let me know and I'm happy to look into it. Also an FYI that if you ever need another pair of eyes for copyright matters, you can always post a listing at WP:Copyright problems and someone will usually get back to you within a week or so. Stay well, all. Ajpolino (talk) 02:46, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cyberknife

The Cyberknife theme could be represented on the anaplastic oligodendroglioma side, or not? Best regards, Wname1 (talk) 18:42, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

On the Radiosurgery/Cyberknife page, can see the Cyberknife activities in brain tumors. https://web.archive.org/web/20070903152109/http://med.stanford.edu/neurosurgery/patient_care/radiosurgery.html . Wname1 (talk) 11:48, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Revision to "anaplastic oligodendroglioma"

@Wname1 I want to explain why I've undone your changes to the article and moved it back to anaplastic oligodendroglioma (AOD).

- "Oligodendroglioma, IDH-mutant and 1p/19q-codeleted" has both a grade 2 and grade 3 subtype, which are the successors of "oligodendroglioma" and "AOD", respectively. This article doesn't contain anything about the grade 2 subtype.

- The article hasn't been updated to reflect the changes of the new terminology and molecular critera, greatly exemplified in these sentences: "About 50 to 70% of WHO grade III Oligodendrogliomas, IDH-mutant and 1p/19q-codeleted have combined allele losses on the short arm of chromosome 1 (1p) and the long arm of chromosome 19 (19q). This change is mostly referred to as "1p / 19q Co Deletion"." It also still uses Roman numerals for grades, mentions grade IV oligodendrogliomas, watchful waiting as a therapy etc.

As of now, the article doesn't cover "Oligodendroglioma, IDH-mutant and 1p/19q-codeleted" as defined by the 2021 WHO classification, but an obsolete entity. I've added an {{update}}-template to make readers aware. Cheers, MaligneRange (talk) 12:42, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
