Split Runner's high

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was to make the split: runner's high. HallyTall (talk) 21:14, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Beyond neurobiology, there are psychological, cultural, historical -- even spiritual -- aspects around runner's high. See, for example:

fgnievinski (talk) 19:10, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fgnievinski I don't see anyone opposing this proposal, so you might as well try to and see if you can create a decent standalone article for runner's high. Some1 (talk) 22:48, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support as per reasons mentioned above. --littleb2009^{Have a chat?} 20:38, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fgnievinski I agree with splitting the article in terms of the Runner's High page. With the sources available, it could be beneficial as it is a known phenomenon and has lots of information on it. Coffeeking123 (talk) 04:57, 18 January 2022 (UTC)coffeeking123[reply]

Support I wholeheartedly agree. In case that OP does not do the split (+2 years have passed from his proposal), I might try to do it myself. HallyTall (talk) 13:41, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Removing quotes, speculation from lab research, and redundant primary sources

This article has existed for years based on extreme speculation from lab research. It also has had an inordinate number of extensive, unnecessary quotes from lab studies and outdated reviews where the quotes were used mainly to promote the supposed benefits - mostly unproven - of exercise on the central nervous system. The removed quotes and content would have little/no value to the general encyclopedia user, MEDMOS - Writing style; Technical terminology.

This edit and summary were a first pass at removing the promotional tone of the article, particularly of gross speculation from the selective quotes intended to persuade, and sources ~10 years out of date. Zefr (talk) 19:53, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
