Sleep hygiene - explainer video
[edit]Hi, I'm new here and was afraid of editing the article directly, so I decided to make a suggestion in the talk. I would like to insert a short video, explaining "Sleep Hygiene" in a simple way. I'm sure this will enrich the article and make the topic more accessible, especially for younger generation that are more trusted with this medium. Besides that I wasn't sure how to do this technically. =) Here is the video that I found on commons:

- @Doc James: you've mentioned in one of our discussions that you would have a look on "sleep hygiene" video and check if it could be used in the article on EN Wikipedia? Did you have a chance? Thanks for your feedback in advance.--Norma.jean (talk) 15:01, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
User:Hordaland what do you think? It is a fairly accurate but simple explanation of the key aspects of sleep hygiene. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 15:20, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Doc James. I wrote my opinion on that on the Admin noticeboard on 6th July: Diff.

- Per Hordaland "It starts well (internal biological clock, the hormone melatonin), but the claim that "Simon" has trained his "body" to know that "it's only time for melatonin when Simon is in bed" is nonsense. The pineal gland starts secreting melatonin at least a couple of hours before bedtime."
- Wondering if you can correct the above. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:54, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
This is IMHO an excellent presentation of what sleep hygiene is and a few key notions about sleep and the circadian rhythm (although it lacks a mention of the sleep homeostat and ultradian cycles - called in the video "wakefulness phases" - but they are not necessarily needed here). The problem is not the video per se, but that the assumptions of sleep hygiene were never proved and there is a lack of evidence of its effectiveness, hence the choice of presenting sleep hygiene as a story is fraught with the pitfall of presenting it as a fact (ie, Simon has recalibrated his sleep and circadian rhythm by the end of the video) when it is certainly not but just a hypothesis at this point. --213.211.156.118 (talk) 01:31, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
Naked. Totally naked?
[edit]Hello dear Wikipedians, we are of course a serious dictionary. After all, I've been with it for 17 years. But we're not uptight, that shows the variety of topics on porn stars and all the trimmings. Now to my question, here are statistics on sleeping naked. But, between dressed and naked, there is also a big gray area. Are there any statistics? I don't necessarily want to put on the very rare bed boots, but maybe some attractive young women (cinema in the head!) Like to sleep with only hold-ups or just a dance belt (after all, warms the kidneys) or a corset. Who knows anything about it? Rolz Reus (talk) 20:07, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
