Editing Golgi apparatus (section)

== Discovery ==
Because of its large size and distinctive structure, the Golgi apparatus was one of the first organelles to be discovered and observed in detail. It was discovered in 1898 by Italian physician Camillo Golgi during an investigation of the [[nervous system]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Golgi C | year = 1898 | title = Intorno alla struttura delle cellule nervose | url = http://ppp.unipv.it/camillogolgi/pdf/Intornoallastrutturadellecellulenervose.pdf | journal = Bollettino della Società Medico-Chirurgica di Pavia | volume = 13 | issue = 1 | page = 316 | url-status = live | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20180407120042/http://ppp.unipv.it/camillogolgi/pdf/Intornoallastrutturadellecellulenervose.pdf | archive-date = 2018-04-07 }}</ref><ref name="Fabene-1998"/> After first observing it under his [[microscope]], he termed the structure as ''apparato reticolare interno'' ("internal reticular apparatus"). Some doubted the discovery at first, arguing that the appearance of the structure was merely an optical illusion created by Golgi's observation technique. With the development of modern microscopes in the twentieth century, the discovery was confirmed.<ref name="Davidson-2004">{{cite web | url = http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/cells/golgi/golgiapparatus.html | title = The Golgi Apparatus | author = Davidson MW | date = 2004-12-13 | work = Molecular Expressions | publisher = Florida State University | access-date = 2010-09-20 | url-status = live | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20061107142553/http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/cells/golgi/golgiapparatus.html | archive-date = 2006-11-07 }}</ref> Early references to the Golgi apparatus referred to it by various names, including the Golgi–Holmgren apparatus, Golgi–Holmgren ducts, and Golgi–Kopsch apparatus.<ref name="Fabene-1998"/> The term Golgi apparatus was used in 1910 and first appeared in scientific literature in 1913, while "Golgi complex" was introduced in 1956.<ref name="Fabene-1998"/>
