Rolled back last change as it was pasted from [http://www.mskcc.org/mskcc/html/512.cfm this site], which is copyrighted.   Needs paraphrased and wikified - [[User:Crosbiesmith|Crosbiesmith]] 6 July 2005 21:16 (UTC)

==Technical problem with image==
Image:Liberty 1 by bencwright.jpg 	 shows up in red in the article, but I can't find it to fix it. [[User:Osomec|Osomec]] 13:22, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
==Merger==
This page is for the architectural value of this building, not the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center as an institution. This page SHOULD NOT be merged as its about the historical value of a offical new york landmark, not the current institution it is now.

:Vice versa, seems to me, with the present article being for the modern organization, and [[New York Cancer Hospital]] for the old building and the founding of the organization.  Anway I agree with our anonymous commentator that the merger between these two moderately large articles is a bad idea.

Is probably neither notable nor particularly appropriate for a song about one of the top cancer centers in the country/world [[Special:Contributions/74.79.243.131|74.79.243.131]] ([[User talk:74.79.243.131|talk]]) 18:18, 25 November 2008 (UTC)GMM

==COI==
Lots of conflicted editing on this article.  See above and [[Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard#Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center_nest_of_COI_editing]] [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 21:42, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Jytdog, I'm going to revert to the other version. First, one of the names is repeated. Second, it looks odd to repeat all the combinations of A = B = C. The point is that this was one person with three names. [[User:SlimVirgin|Sarah]] <small><sup>[[User_talk:SlimVirgin|(talk)]]</sup></small> 21:46, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

:Thanks DMacks.  Slim, thanks for catching the typo. It was a lot of work going through and logging all the COI/promo editing that has gone on this article, and I goofed in the course of that.  In any case, it is great you are taking an interest in seeing how these tags actually are  used.  About the three usernames for the same apparent person... there is value in having the relevant username in the "User" field" - we lose information by condensing three accounts into one entry.  The point is that we have three COI accounts, each with their own contribs, Talk page, history etc. Others listed there could be her as well.

== Improving the history section ==

I've been working with MSK to improve the quality of information in the history section. I've drafted something up [[User:FacultiesIntact/sandbox/Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center|in my sandbox]], and I'm looking for feedback as to whether or not it's NPOV-compliant and sufficiently cited. {{ping|Jytdog}}, if you've got a moment, would you mind taking a look? I'd value your input especially since you've been so involved in this article in the past.--[[User:FacultiesIntact|FacultiesIntact]] ([[User talk:FacultiesIntact|talk]]) 02:48, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
:the first sentence in the history section is not supported by the source.  the second sentence is sourced somewhere in [https://cloud.3dissue.com/75528/75875/90117/ColeytoCure/index.html this document] (which you didn't link to) and don't provide a page number for. I stopped there. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 03:43, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
:also please provide complete citations for everything, including books, and page numbers for books.  the WP software lets you go find books online so that content can be verified, if the editor supplies the ISBN.  And there is a link to the Heller article at the NY Times, [http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9E06EED8143DE333A2575AC1A9629C946191D6CF here].  If you want people to volunteer their time so you can make money and MSK can publicize itself, please make it easy on them, not hard.  thanks. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 03:51, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
: and please do not include '''any''' unsourced promotional content, like "Innovations continued under the Sloan-Kettering Institute, including the first computerized treatment plan program in the US.".  And please do not use flowery language like "In 1915 the hospital also began a radiation department which would become the cornerstone of radiation therapy as a cancer treatment".  That may please MSK but it is not what we do here.  Think "vanilla", not "color". [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 03:51, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
::{{ping|Jytdog}} Thanks for the feedback! I've been working on your suggestions. I didn't realize that WP would provide links to books if the ISBN is provided, so thank you for the tip. I'm working on ensuring there are viewable links to as many references as possible, as well as removing the flowery language. I also wanted to tell you that I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to keep me honest. I do try to keep the content I write as well-sourced and neutral as I can, but by its nature, I do have a conflict of interest. Your willingness to collaborate with me helps ensure that Wikipedia remains as neutral as possible, and I hope that I can help demonstrate an ethical approach to paid advocacy.--[[User:FacultiesIntact|FacultiesIntact]] ([[User talk:FacultiesIntact|talk]]) 01:11, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
:::You are welcome, and thanks for being open to feedback. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 01:12, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
::::{{ping|Jytdog}} I've made your recommended edits: removing the flowery language, providing references for all the added material, and providing links for the NYT articles. I also added extra references where previously the only source was MSK's website. Would you mind taking another look?--[[User:FacultiesIntact|FacultiesIntact]] ([[User talk:FacultiesIntact|talk]]) 00:47, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
:::::Several things:
:::::When did Coley pioneer that funky immunotherapy?  you imply he did that while he was at MSK.
:::::Just like the WP software formats a link to ISBNs, it formats a link to the pubmed ID of medical journal articles. Here is the pmid for the NEJM article you cite: {{PMID|21306239}}.  It is very useful to use that.  Pubmed also often has links to free versions of articles, and it has one to this source. 
:::::You didn't provide the ISNB for On the Cancer Frontier: One Man, One Disease, and a Medical Revolution
:::::The pmid for James Ewing Society, 1940-1969: Presidential Address  is {{PMID|4905156}}
:::::Where can I get "Memorial Hospital for the Treatment of Cancer and Allied Diseases Thirty First Annual Report for the Year 1915"? to verify the information sourced to it?
::::: Where can i get " "General Memorial Hospital for the Treatment of Cancer and Allied Diseases Eighteenth Annual Report for the Year 1902"" to verify the information sourced to it? 
::::: Where can I get ""Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center Annual Report, 1977" to verify the information sourced from it? 
::::: why do you not provide the link for [http://www.healio.com/hematology-oncology/practice-management/news/print/hemonc-today/%7B20593db8-bd40-4c49-970a-9fe52a576835%7D/center-names-physician-in-chief this press release]? 
::::: the current citation #32 to El Mundo  - I [http://ariadna.elmundo.es/buscador/archivo.html?q=Joan%20Massague&t=1&i=11&n=10&fd=0&td=0&w=70&s=1&no_acd=1 can't find that].  Where did you find that? 
:::::please do not use words like "current" or "recent" or "today" see [[WP:RELTIME]]
:::::that is just reviewing sources.. will start reading now. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 02:07, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
::::::{{ping|Jytdog}} Thanks for the additional feedback. I've added the PMID numbers you provided (I wasn't familiar with the system there, so again, thank you for the tip) and the missing ISBNs. I also provided links to the HemOnc release and El Mundo article. I hadn't provided them initially because a lot of the resources I've been using are scans from MSK's archives. To that end, I wasn't able to find online copies of the cited MSK annual reports, but they are in the public domain. Ordinarily I'd think it's a bit excessive, but since you've been so helpful, I can provide the scans of the relevant pages if you're really intent on seeing them. Regarding your question about Coley, the provided source says the first trials occurred in 1891. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1888599/ This article] says the same. As for your comments about [[WP:RELTIME]], I removed the "current" from "director of SKI". Do you have any suggestions on how to retitle the subsection?--[[User:FacultiesIntact|FacultiesIntact]] ([[User talk:FacultiesIntact|talk]]) 22:11, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

== article update ==

I've been working with a paid editor, [[User:FacultiesIntact]] to revise this article in their sandbox [[User:FacultiesIntact/sandbox/Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center]].   I reviewed their work painstakingly and did a bunch of editing of my own on it as well.  This is in my view a neutral and well sourced update.  I over-wrote the article with the sandboxed version today in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center&type=revision&diff=718855745&oldid=711894177 this dif.]   If anybody is not comfortable with this in any way, happy to discuss.

== US News ranking ==

MSK maintained their ranking as the #2 cancer hospital in the nation for 2017-2018, per [http://health.usnews.com/best-hospitals/rankings the latest rankings]. Would someone without a COI mind making the update in the [[Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center#Reputation|Reputation section]]?--[[User:FacultiesIntact|FacultiesIntact]] ([[User talk:FacultiesIntact|talk]]) 23:07, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
:{{done}} [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 23:06, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

== Adding images to the article ==

MSK released some archival photos for use on the article, and I went ahead and mocked up a layout in [[User:FacultiesIntact/sandbox/Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center|my sandbox]]. I thought they help tell the visual story of the hospital throughout its many forms and locations. Can someone take a look and offer an opinion? It's an additional 4 images, but I don't think it's too visually cluttered or otherwise overwhelming.--[[User:FacultiesIntact|FacultiesIntact]] ([[User talk:FacultiesIntact|talk]]) 23:23, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
:{{done}} I think that works, all down the right side.  Not sure how well that will work on mobile, but looks fine on a desktop. [[User:Jytdog|Jytdog]] ([[User talk:Jytdog|talk]]) 17:50, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
::{{ping|Jytdog}} thanks for the help! Any chance you're still interested in looking at some BLPs for some of the MSK doctors? I know it's a lot, but I appreciate your critical eye.--[[User:FacultiesIntact|FacultiesIntact]] ([[User talk:FacultiesIntact|talk]]) 20:13, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

== Minor update proposals ==

I noticed a few little things on the article that could use updating, but I'd like to refrain from directly editing due to my COI. In the lead paragraph, [[Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center#Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center_(1980–present)|Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (1980–present) section]], and the [[Memorial_Sloan_Kettering_Cancer_Center#Training|Training section]] respectively:

::: I've removed the ratings claim per your suggestion, based on the recent discussion you had referred to.

== missing info about treatment costs for patients and scandals==

No mention at all of treatment costs for patients! I came here looking for this info because of this [https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/07/15/i-still-believe-american-dream-i-know-why-so-many-others-dont/?outputType=comment&commentId=48135285-429f-49d6-b5b3-ff2d0d6c4cf0 comment] in the Washington Post: 

"Sloan-Kettering set my dad adrift when his money ran out. I had naively believed that the Rockefeller Foundation would not let that happen." 

While looking for info about this elsewhere, i discovered that there are serious scandals that this article ignores, including Paige.AI and Raskin  https://www.statnews.com/2018/10/03/memorial-sloan-kettering-betrayed-my-trust/

Hello [[WP:Medicine]], Would anyone be open to take a look at the article, specifically the [[Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center#MSKCC Logo|MSK Logo]] section? I noticed an unconfirmed user, [[User:WQ25|WQ25]] added the new section to the article. I assume it was good faith but the section fails to meet Wikipedia's guidelines. The section contains no references and looks like it is from Quora. [https://www.quora.com/What-does-the-Memorial-Sloan-Kettering-logo-mean See Here]. I suggest we remove the section from the article.--[[User:Chefmikesf|Chefmikesf]] ([[User talk:Chefmikesf|talk]]) 19:31, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

I would first start by searching for sourcing to support the content in the Logo section.  [[WP:HOS]]  --[[User Talk:G. Moore| Talk]] to G Moore 00:11, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

:Should the Hospital's Specialty be [[Cancer]] or [[Oncology]] in the Infobox hospital.  I would argue in favor of Oncology.  I have corrected this on several other Cancer Center articles.

:Should there not be a link on [[Urgent care center]] in the infobox to define what is meant using another article?

:I think that this article is close to meeting the class=B [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Hospitals/Assessment|criteria]].  It is comprehensive and well sourced.  Are there departments in the hospital that might be listed or discussed?   What specialties are covered?   Are there national medical rankings of the hospital that are worth mentioning in the article?

::Hello [[user:G. Moore|G. Moore]],

::First, Thank you for your interest in the article. I've conducted further research into the MSKCC logo content and am pretty disappointed with my search. The search took me a few days. I started on Google, then took my search to online library databases. I found only two sources, and both are the same exact text copied from another site. The second major red flag is one of these sources is on a Wikipedia Blacklist for spam so I cannot add it to the talk page. To me this is obvious plagiarism, [[Wikipedia:Plagiarism|Wikipedia:Plagiarism]]. My recommendation stands to remove the content from the article for now.

The history of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in the subsection '''Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (1980–present)''' could be improved for factual accuracy. The current paragraph only states that:

"In 1990 it entered an agreement with [[Amgen]] to receive royalties for recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, the basis for neupogen and neulasta, earning the institute well over $100 million.<ref>{{cite web |title=Amgen to Pay Lower Royalties on New Drug : Pharmaceuticals: It costs the Thousand Oaks firm $50 million to alter its agreement with a research center.

::::::Just in case there was unintentional mistake, the following paragraph was deleted when adding the paragraphs on 1980s history of G-CSF at MSK. I believe that it should be included again because it adds important historical context:
::::::In 1990 it entered an agreement with [[Amgen]] to receive royalties for recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, the basis for neupogen and neulasta, earning the institute well over $100 million.
