Talk:Multiple complex developmental disorder

message: The article Multisystem Developmental Disorder appears to be describing the same condition as Multiple-complex Developmental Disorder, so I have proposed they be merged into this article. There does not appear to be much information about these developmental disorders, so I would rather see if anyone else with a little expertise on multiplex developmental disorder has to say before I just merge them.--NeantHumain 18:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger Proposal 

message: I took this out of the article; not sure if it was worth saving, but just in case: 
"But every Autist isn't the same.
the article that you are reading doesn't go up for every MCDD'er
i know because i have MCDD.
short explanation:
you just see an apple.
i see the apple more complex.
i'm very good with PC's but awfully bad with topography and Dutch.

replies: text: Yeah, I have it too, and I haven't noticed any psychopatic behavior myself though. Am I a reliable source?

thread_title:  Moving opinion by 81.207.229.124 from article to discussion 

message: I recently reverted another round of changes to this article, because in many places, the sources used did not support the statements in the article.  Several of the sources are self-published blogs, which fail WP:RS.  Also, several of the sources list symptoms of a given disorder, such as autism or schizophrenia, but the sources do not mention MCDD at all: these cannot be used to support lists of MCDD symptoms. I provided literally dozens of reliable sources from PubMed, perhaps some of these can be used instead. Please also format any references used correctly per WP:CITE.

thread_title: Recent changes reverted

message: I have visited PubMed and added all available sources for multiple complex developmental disorder and multiplex developmental disorder.  There are now perhaps 20 sources available on the page which can be used to improve the article.  Whatever404 (talk) 13:56, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  New sources 

message: I have MCDD and Asperger syndrome, and i strongly disagree with the symptom of mental retardation, i myself have a IQ over 120, and i have 2 friends who also have MCDD, the first one also has an IQ of over 120, and the other one has an IQ of 141, and i checked with my psychiatrist and mental retardation is not a symptom of MCDD. --Lordcat33 (talk) 15:56, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Lordcat33! The article says: "Some examples include: .... mental retardation." It doesn't say all have MR. It also says: "At least three of the following categories should be present." - which implies that the category neurological symptoms doesn't have to be present.Lova Falk talk 16:07, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

text: I tried to check some sources, and nowhere I found that mental retardation was a symptom of MCDD. On the contrary, for instance this source stated that the autistic children with MR belonged to a different group. So I will remove this from the text. Thank you for telling us!

thread_title:  Mental Retardation 

message: I've never seen anything in the literature regarding a connection between MCDD and savant syndrome, and it seems that this page is the only prominent suggestion of a link. It strikes me as probable speculation produced from the aether, and I'm removing the relevant section. If anyone thinks it should be re-added, please do so (with reference to external documentation, no anecdotes please). 150.101.121.196 (talk) 14:14, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
