[edit] "Detailed IQ Chart"

I've removed the detailed IQ scale that was given on this page. It had no citation and so its accuracy could not be determined. Furthermore, it used rather unscientific terms such as "moron" and "idiot," which struck me as extremely offensive ways to describe severe mental retardation. I can't say I've seen them used in a psychology textbook published after 1950, either... Anyway, if I can find a detailed IQ scale from a reputable source and add it with the appropriate citation, I'll do so. -Elizabennet | talk 15:04, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
