Master of Arts?[edit]

Master of Arts in Computer Science? That should be Master of Science:

§ 7 Akademischer Grad

Wer den Masterstudiengang Informatik erfolgreichabgeschlossen hat, erlangt den akademischen Grad „Masterof Science“ (abgekürzt „M.Sc.“)." [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by WiseWoman (talk • contribs) 21:06, 27 August 2020 UTC) (UTC)

Epstein connection in the BLP[edit]

Without secondary sources, it seems hard to judge if this falls under WP:UNDUE especially for a BLP. Does that section belong in the BLP? --Molochmeditates (talk) 02:42, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This part: “Between 2013 and 2017, Bach was directly or indirectly attributed research funding by Jeffrey Epstein charitable funds, according to fact-finding reports from Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Bach declined to comment.” While this may seem meaningful, as a data engineer within the philanthropic space, working with multiple Forbes top-50 non-profits and the sheer billions in records I have pipelined and analyzed, the only reasonable conclusion I have for thinking this was written was to raise suspicion or operate with an agenda. It should be removed entirely in its current form and style as it seems disingenuous. Please remove

Also, one day I’ll read all the rules or pick them up from thoughtful redirects about speaking on such matters. I am open to being prodded as to how I could have effectively made my case Worldisallthatisthecase (talk) 01:45, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reference missing[edit]

I think the new interview with Lex Friedman is relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8qJsk1j2zE 192.36.28.75 (talk) 09:17, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bach Family[edit]

This article includes an assertion that Joscha is a member of the Bach Family, with a link to an article about the Bach family that states "Caroline Augusta Wilhelmine, lived the longest. She died in 1871 – the last of Bach's descendants to hold the Bach name."

The cite for that statement leads to a long podcast to which I have listened, but I missed any claim about being a member of the Bach family there (but it was a long podcast, and I might have been distracted).

I am not doing any original research, but it seems to me that only one of these two statements can be true. jens (talk) 20:09, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
