Talk:Mark Turner (cognitive scientist)

Proposed Additions or Edits
I do not know who created this page for me, but it has been on Wikipedia for a long time. As originally written, most of the information was taken from my personal website at http://markturner.org or websites created by my university. I learn that over the years, Wikipedia has moved toward monitoring such sites, emphasizing the need for citations to third-party verification of everything on the page. I note that some editors are beginning to add such citations to the page. When I added some myself, the page was flagged with a conflict-of-interest alert, and the editor who did so kindly apprised me of the fact that accepted procedure would be for the subject of the page to propose edits on the talk page for inclusion by some other editor on the page itself. Accordingly, I place below citations to third-party sources for someone else to consider adding to the page: Footnote the membership in the Institute for Advanced study with the following link for the Institute's webpage on Mark Turner: http://www.ias.edu/people/cos/users/8307 Markturner (talk) 16:47, 2 June 2013 (UTC) Footnote the membership in the National Humanities Center with the following link for the Center's fellows: http://nationalhumanitiescenter.org/fellowships/ffellows3.htm Markturner (talk) 16:47, 2 June 2013 (UTC)


 * The source provided does not appear to mention the National Humanities Center. Also, while I don't contribute to a lot of BLPs, I don't think we generally include every organization the article-subject is a member of. This is for the next few Request Edits as well. We do want to know organizations Turner founded or has leadership positions in, as well as their life story and notable accomplishments. CorporateM (Talk) 23:56, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
