replies: text: The article says "The underlying causes of migraines are unknown".  I don't think you're going to get a clear explanation of what is the cause of migraines under those circumstances.  Deli nk (talk) 13:51, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

"Certain probiotic strains, such as bifidobacteria, have also been found to help regulate serotonin production, which contributes to a reduction in  migraine frequency and severity."

message: My suggestion is to pick another image in the infobox ("Woman with migraine headache")
I can assure you that not a single person suffering from an ongoing migraine will look straight into a lamp. Most people suffering from migraine avoid any light at all.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Topfenbaecker (talk • contribs) 10:45, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: I agree with Topfenbaecker. The current image is too stylized. A crop of this image (licensed CC BY 2.0) would be a good image. The model's face is in light and his hand position appears to demonstrate the aura phase. It's not perfect (ideally the model would be female), but I think it's better than the current image. userdude 20:10, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

This is not the treatment of acute headaches but decreasing the frequency of HAs. Have grouped with other discussion on the topic. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 19:24, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

message: (Excuse me for reaching the routine of adding new sections at the end of the page but as an IP user used to the prerogative of an admin, for something like15 years, I find a little hard to adapt to the role of an IP user, putting up with various indignities that go along with the combination of that and use of an iPad. For instance. For instance, I have great disdain for colleagues who think a talk page is just like those chat pages or message servers where time goes back where did you read down the page, yet here I am forced by the software to create a new section at the top of the page in order to point out the problem that concerns me. “Typically, episodes affect one half of the head,...” is grossly confusing, even though Wikipedia has no *requirement* for exercising responsibility in talking about medical matters. I am not a doctor, but I’ve hung around with enough doctors, and paid enough attention, to know that the top and bottom of the head are not complementary, even though the two sides of the brain, and therefore perceptions based on brain function, are subject to important symmetries. In this case left brain and right brain tumors are common compared to tumors restricted to the left or right side of the brain, and far more common than those affecting the upper and lower halves or front and back of the brain.The edit software is fighting my efforts to clean it up properly, and thwarting me, if not definitively, up to my tolerance limit. No one has seen fit to fix the goofy info, and this is me givin’ i’ my bes’shot.—2601:199:C201:FD70:9C34:6D48:7EC7:B307 (talk) 22:47, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  “ Typically, episodes affect one half of the head...” 

message: The article contains a sentence that describes that caffeine in combination with over-the-counter analgesics can be an effective first-line treatment for migraine headache, although Caffeine is not a recommended therapy in most clinical situations. Consider removing and only discussing over-the-counter analgesics.
Edit 8/23/2023 -- I went ahead with this change due to lack of feedback. It reads much better now with more clinically accurate information in the introduction, with caffeine still being discussed in the dedicated analgesics section.

message: Help would be appreciated updating a lot of the sources for this article. It contains a lot of outdated information regarding migraine pathophysiology, migraine variants, and the disease in general. There is plenty  of more up-to-date literature, but the volume is substantial. AGIwithTheBraids (talk) 01:12, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi , sorry I'm late to the party. I'm available if you'd still like another set of eyes/hands to help with updating. Feel free to direct me to a particular section(s) or source(s) if you prefer. Otherwise I'll mostly (slowly) go top to bottom. Ajpolino (talk) 14:03, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

text: @AGIwithTheBraids I'll agree to help with Ajpolino, but it's quite difficult to know what you're talking about as you haven't provided any specific parts that are outdated. —Panamitsu (talk) 21:47, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Since medicine-related topics evolve so fast, we typically consider sources older than five years to be an indication that we should look into a topic to see if things have changed (guideline at WP:MEDDATE). It's not a brightline rule, and certainly not an emergency, but any updating we can get to will certainly help. I think I'll start with the Epidemiology section (no particular reason, happy to do another section if someone tells me to). If there's a particular element of migraines that interest you, feel free to start there. If you need help accessing sources or interpreting anything, feel free to post back here and we can put our heads together. Ajpolino (talk) 18:47, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

message: Hello  I refer to
your edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Migraine&oldid=prev&diff=1199500815 (where you reverted my edit where I fixed an error).
When the display-authors limitation is set in the main template "cs1 config", as in this page, then this setting applies to all citations. There is no need to set it additionally in each citation if it is already set in the "cs1 config". If this option is set in both config and individual citation, the articles go to the "error" / "warning" category "CS1 maint: overridden setting". My edits fix this problem and remove pages from this "CS1 maint: overridden setting" category. In that particular edit, the page already has "", so if the page has a duplicate "name-list-style=vanc" or "display-authors=6" in each individual "" or at least in one , then the page will go to the error category, "CS1 maint: overridden setting", as you can see. Before my edit, the page was in "CS1 maint: overridden setting". My edit removed the page from this category. Therefore, please consider restoring my edit.
You mentioned "Pointless edits - limited authors need to be dispayed - WHY these unwanted edits?" -- but if you see, this limitation is already imposed by "cs1 config".
Thank you!
