--Taejo 9 July 2005 09:55 (UTC) This article, copied or not, is too laden with hyperlinks regarding technical issues to adequately inform readers who may need help in understanding the topic, especially if it pertains to their own or a loved one's medical condition. Therefore, his article should be extensively re-written, with some priority over other articles that simply deal with pop culture or whatever, say. Wikipedia is rapidly becoming a first port of call for unfortunates who are looking for medical information and a gateway to further knowledge, often in some condition of emotinal stress. We need to do better. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.240.240.5 (talk) 07:52, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is a move discussion in progress on
