Fixed

Hello, I have fixed the article--Microsoft 1000 Defender and Ruler of Cyberspace! 22:31, 13 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

It's still a copyvio since you've just changed a few words. It will need a complete re-write to be otherwise, and the subject is probably covered in Asthma. If it isn't, you could add the information there - but not please an unreffed copy / paste job. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 00:01, 14 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Merge?

Probably better to discuss this in the context of asthma in general. Why not a merge with asthma. JFW | T@lk 20:31, 17 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Is seen as a distinct group (phenotype) of asthma and I've added refs to this effect (also refs of their being 2 types of brittle asthma). So I think notability is established. That accepted, whether still best in its own article or merged into main asthma I remain open minded - but certainly current asthma article seems to make no mention of 'brittle asthma' at all. I think crux is that even with high dose inhalled steroids supposedly to address inflammation, brittle asthma remains an active process with symptoms and exacerbations.

Deserves its own section in the main asthma article. Once it is to big I can than be split off.Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:09, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
I don't really have a strong opinion on whether it should be merged, but the Asthma article seems quite large enough without it. If not merged, probably some mention should be made of it at that article. I don't work much in this area, though. I came because of the copyright concerns. :) (It was listed automatically at WP:SCV). In rewriting, I've added a bit more sourced text. Would have liked to have drawn more from a more recent source, but the 1999 book was the most thorough and accessible I could find. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 20:14, 21 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Please DO NOT merge. I'd like to see the "Britle Asthma" article expanded and I'd like to see warnings added to it. (87.80.103.44 (talk) 18:55, 28 January 2010 (UTC))Reply

Merger

I think it should be discussed. Je.rrt (talk) 20:09, 27 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

In the absence of movement on this merge and in view of the objections previously expressed I've removed the tag. LT90001 (talk) 22:20, 21 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
