Either include a link to James Paget and Rudolf Virchow...or remove mention of them as the founders of the field on their pages. Pick one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.110.233.209 (talk) 11:38, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The revision of 18:16 21 October 2023 deleted material that is essentially introductory text which serves the purpose of providing perspective for the content of the succeeding sub-sections. As explanatory text (i.e. explaining the structure of the text), the {{citation needed}} tag was inappropriate and should not be restored. Fabrickator (talk) 21:10, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. It's waffle and poorly written waffle at that. I had to read it twice to work out the meaning. We don't use introductions to sections as this should be covered in the Lead. The article is long enough without this padding. Graham Beards (talk) 08:39, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
