I think the 3rd example(from e-medicine) would be better labeled as agreement rather than disagreement. Especially the 4th paragraph, 2nd and 3rd sentences. They seem to say that most scientists agree that behavioral changes DO coincide with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. FWIW....  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.175.111.242 (talk) 22:14, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Any suggestions or input along the way would be greatly appreciated.  Rremus10 (talk) 15:32, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi, as this article falls under Wikiproject Medicine there are some guidelines that need to be applied. WP:MEDRS & WP:MEDMOS give some idea into what is needed. Sources are preferably secondary, that is to say, not research papers and (with rare exception case reports); but rather reviews, professional text-books and position statements from major organizations. Also it is preferable to use sources published within the last 5 years. Consider adding a pubmed ID so that they can be found quickly, not just the doi. A pubmed search will yield many good results , and if you do not have access through your university feel free to pop me a mail (use the form) with a pubmed-link to the review and I will help out as best I can.

message: This article as good information in it already. I would like to organize it into different subheadings so I can try to expand on certain topics. I would like to expand on the connection because temporal lobe epilepsy and the symptoms of Geschwind syndrome. Also, I wanted to expand on the belief that there is a comorbidity with schizoaffective disorder. The symptom of increased religiosity is interesting to me and would like to expand more on it as well. Rremus10 (talk) 04:00, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Article Expansion

message: This looks good Becca. It had some really interesting information in it. Just a quick grammar catch: in the third line, should it read "hyper-morality of (not or)..." I think this article has some good information but could be further expanded even more. Some questions I had when reading the article: Does this just happen to epilepsy patients or patients with seizures too? I finally saw the last line of the article and figured this out. But maybe this sentence could be moved closer to the top to clarify some of the things you talk about in the article. What are some of the arguments against it? It would be interesting to hear both sides, and to expand on why both sides believe what they do. Do they know exactly what is causing these symptoms? How does this arise physiologically? Also how common is this? Good work! Shelbtrav (talk) 00:20, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Article Class Proofread

message: Terrific start, I really think you have a lot of great material.  I can see how the article has been expanded and I think you're going about it the right way.  My only concern is the fact that the article seems very maintained to the intro.  I think it would benefit from more supportive materials, further research/examples, and/or a more in depth description of narrower ideas about Geschwind Syndrome.  Great job, keep working at it!

thread_title:  Peer Review 

message: There is a lot of great information in this so far.  It is very specific and descriptive.  I believe this would only be made better if there was more information in the later sections instead of it being in the main introduction.  Other than that this is a great article.

thread_title: Peer Review

message: According to Picard ecstatic seizures (ES) are distinct from Geschwind syndrome (GS), and probably shouldn't be grouped with interictal religiosity/philosophical interests (or directly with GS at all). I'm not saying a person who experiences ES can't have typical seizures and develop GS, but generally in ecstatic seizures the spiritual experience is limited to the ES, and seizures in a person with GS are rarely blissful. (Just to be clear, the terms "ecstatic seizure" and "ecstatic aura" are used interchangeably; they are the same thing.) — βox73 (৳alk) 10:45, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ecstatic seizures not Geschwind syndrome 

message: My subjective opinion is that the see also section should only contain people that are either 1. mentioned in the above article, 2. mentions Geschwind syndrome in the linked article. Otherwise anybody could randomly add people that they think have a Geschwind syndrome, such as (hypothetically) Donald Trump (which would be funny, but not encyclopedical). Those fulfilling 1, are:
# Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Those fulfilling 2 are:
# Ramakrishna
# Ramana Maharshi
Those fulfilling neither, are:
# Muhammad
# L. Ron Hubbard
# Vincent van Gogh
They should be removed, otherwise Wikipedia kind of "alleges unqualified statements." Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 08:19, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  See also 

message: there a line in the hyperreligiosity section that reads "Furthermore, "in someone from a strongly religious background hyperreligiosity might appear as deeply felt atheism".[16][17]" and i didn't actually see this quote attached to either source - both books, but i don't have full text access so I couldn't check. if they're in the source theyre in it and i just can't find it.
i don't even necessarily disagree with the idea hyperreligiosity itself can manifest around "atheism as a religion" or whatnot, but im just wondering if that's an actual component of this syndrome from the sources or just a "checkmate, atheists!" addition 2600:6C47:A03F:C443:1409:5DA3:7A24:A0C4 (talk) 07:00, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
