Talk:Rosalía Abreu

Source 📝

1203:. I can confirm the journal article cited (Wynne 2008) states: "Despite her very different background, Abreu was sympathetic to Ivanov’s request to mate a male chimpanzee with a female human ... Unfortunately, however, the publicity around Ivanov’s plans brought unwelcome attention to Abreu. She apparently received a threatening letter from the Ku Klux Klan for contemplating involvement in an experiment “abominable to the Creator” (Lapin and Fridman 1966, p. 30; Rossiianov 2002). Abreu became fearful of the impact involvement in Ivanov’s scheme might have on her status in respectable Cuban society, and withdrew her consent." All the best - 435: 407: 1140:, review follows: article moved to mainspace 17 October and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline to what look to be reliable sources for the subject; I didn't pick up on any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; image is from a 1905 photograph obviously intended for wider distribution so copyright tag used seems reasonable; hooks are interesting, mentioned in the article and check out to source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - 1047: 148: 127: 77: 53: 956: 345: 321: 1133: 561: 540: 247: 237: 216: 1331:. He's only mentioned briefly in one paragraph, and only one of four bluelinked researchers that the article describes as being influenced by Abreu. Singling him out for special mention in the lead smacks of attempted guilt by association (because of the modern negative connections with eugenics, which is not described in the article text as being an interest of Abreu herself) and 571: 898: 22: 1163: 1479:, it seems to me that the lead summarizes the main reasons why she is remembered, reflecting the content in the body of the article. In some cases, WiR's concern with eliminating the names of male colleagues may be inappropriate. Here, both Yerkes and Ivanov seem to have played important roles in her life. It might nevertheless be useful to expand on their involvement.-- 466: 1292:- the lead is a summary of the article, which includes content relating to the fact that Yerkes based significant amounts of his research on Abreu's work and his purchase of animals from her collection was a significant factor is his later career. I have added eugenicist as a descriptor of Yerkes, to clarify somewhat his approach. 355: 1248:
Should the mention of Robert Yerkes be included in the lead paragraph? Is his name or work recognizable enough to add understanding to Rosalía Abreu? I personally think it only adds questions and mention of Robert Yerkes should be moved to a different point in the article.
1453:
Why is there no discussion of the other researcher who is mentioned in the lead? Why is there just a focus on Yerkes? If the issue is with the lead including people who were significant in Abreu's life then surely this discussion should widen to include
1069: 1335:(attempting to push the idea that she was a eugenicist by improperly synthesizing other claims rather than by finding proper sourcing for a direct connection). (Note: I was brought here by a neutral announcement of this RFC on 1586: 1436:- some commenters are saying that the mention should be removed to later in the article, but I'd like to point out that its already there. Perhaps take a look at the rest of the text before commenting? 1581: 456: 1536: 416: 331: 1606: 1030: 948: 1591: 1551: 522: 512: 198: 188: 1616: 1105: 1556: 83: 63: 1601: 1611: 1541: 488: 164: 1546: 871: 303: 1636: 1566: 944: 293: 1596: 373: 479: 440: 1571: 1182: 155: 132: 1626: 676: 627: 617: 377: 1095:
