[edit] Any

Any ideas who this is named after? (Presumably someone called Evans) Bobstar 00:47, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

I know nothing about R.S. Evans, whose original paper is cited. Nothing on whonamedit[1]. JFW | T@lk 09:08, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

All the info is about a childhood condition? My sister was just told she has this and she is 40+ years. Has there been any new research? I am 58 and have had one long year of medical problems all steming from a low iron. Which has caused havick with my immune system. Since we're related I wonder what the conection might be? Any idea's ?216.40.209.79 05:41, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

I think it should read Evans' syndrome and not Evan's syndrome. Redirects need correcting. Snowman 16:07, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

In the USA eponymous diseases are written without the S (e.g. Parkinson disease). JFW | T@lk 21:06, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

This disease also occurs in dogs and cats. I Could potentailly add more info about specific treatment as well as symptoms for animals. That sound like a good idea? --Mr. Dude †@£К ║ Çøת†яĭβü†ĬŎИ 22:41, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Sounds interesting to me. If you started a new page you would be able to design it from a blank page. Snowman 08:35, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvio

Whilst I don't dispute this condition exists, nor that it is notable, this article was created as a direct copyvio of http://www.madisonsfoundation.org/index.php/component/option,com_mpower/Itemid,49/diseaseID,81/ I have therefore removed this copyrighted material on sight. The sections in the article therefore need rewriting, using appropriate selection of secondary & primary sources. If anyone with detailled knowledge of the condition would like to have a go please do, else I'll have a start at what is currently now just a stub. David Ruben Talk 03:07, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
