[edit] Intelligence

I have reverted the edit "People with Treacher Collins syndrome have normal or above-average intelligence" as there is no reference for this statement. --apers0n 15:06, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] External links

External links on Wikipedia are supposed to be "encyclopedic in nature" and useful to a worldwide audience. Please read the external links policy (and perhaps the specific rules for medicine-related articles) before adding more external links.

The following kinds of links are inappropriate:

  • Online discussion groups or chat forums
  • Personal webpages and blogs
  • Multiple links to the same website
  • Fundraising events or groups
  • Websites that are recruiting for clinical trials
  • Websites that are selling things (e.g., books or memberships)

I realize that some links are helpful to certain users, but they still do not comply with Wikipedia policy, and therefore must not be included in the article. WhatamIdoing (talk) 07:44, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

I will remove the link to Juliana Wetmore's website. --W2bh (talk) 19:20, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
