[edit] Editing Needed

The article appears to need a large amount of editing in order to comply with WP:MOS and especially WP:WTA. The article makes extensive use of weasel words to "support" unsourced statements. 216.229.90.67 09:29, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

I totally agree. This article exhibits very poor writing style and a lot of unreferenced claims. It is NOT suitable encyclopedia material. It should be entirely re-written or deleted altogether. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.255.219.138 (talk) 16:25, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cadavers Over the Years

Aside from citing references in the rest of the article, Section 6 needs a major overhaul. There are way too many idioms, slang terms, and the tone just sounds like it is trying to be too funny/cutesy. Meg 19:22, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

I laughed out loud when I saw "Rumors had it that the anatomists were in cahoots with the zoo keepers" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vcnient (talk • contribs) 09:24, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Split Corpse from Cadaver?

I agree that this article still needs some heavy work. While we're at it, though, I wonder if a split is called for. "Corpse" and "cadaver" have very different connotations, and are not typically used interchangeably. Is this enough to support splitting the article, though? Any thoughts, anyone?

[edit] Inflammatory accusations

I have deleted this line: "In Bosnia, Serbs in hospital dissected alive Muslim victims (some pregnant women)." because there are no references, no year, and no background information given. It also seems to be inserted only to make an inflammatory accusation. 66.74.32.216 (talk) 08:03, 28 May 2008 (UTC)KatellaGate
