Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on April 11, 2011.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that Keipert syndrome affects the nose and big toes?

Prevalence

edit

The lede, and indeed the main text, states that this condition affects less than 200,000 people in the US and less than 1 in 2000 in Europe. These figures, though accurate on a strict interpretation of "less than", are nevertheless thoroughly misleading - they're based on the respective territories' maximum definitons of a "rare condition", meaning that the actual figure could be (and probably is) very much lower. Do we have any more accurate estimates of real prevalence? --11:09, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Those are the only sourced figures I find; but I will change the wording :) Good idea! Rcej (Robert) - talk 01:48, 12 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  

I will get started on this in depth tomorrow. Regards, MacMedtalkstalk 02:46, 20 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Looks pretty good so far, no major issues. Now combing for image problems or issues with MoS compliance. Regards, MacMedtalkstalk 22:35, 20 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

On hold for now. Regards, MacMedtalkstalk 22:59, 20 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • No period at the end of the X-chromosome caption. Doesn't form a complete sentence.
  •   Done
  • The reference "Hereditary hearing loss and its symptoms" needs an accessdate.
  •   Done
  • The {{Main}} in "Cause and Genetics" needs to be at the top.
  •   Done
  • "Cited Literature" should be renamed to "Works or Publications" and moved above the references section.
  •   Done
  • The "et. al" and the dates when you refer to studies need to go. That information is available in the references and just clutters up the article.
  •   Done
