message: Is there any long term negative effects for having Blaschko's lines?
:Not as far as I know. They don't cause problems in and of themselves. They just cause other symptoms to act strangely. Kafziel Talk 12:54, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know the occurence rate for these unexplainable lines? In the article it just says they are "extremely rare". WizardofOskemen 23:06, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I think there should be a "See also" link to Tabby cat, as they are similar phenomena and could have a related biological cause.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daecon (talk • contribs) 04:31, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

message: This article doesn't actually state what the lines are. The opening statement just defines them as a rare condition -- that doesn't qualify as a definition! What are they? Vertical/horizontal/irregular lines (dark, light, coloured, hairy?) on the skin/hair/eyes? Muscle? I have no idea, this article doesn't actually say. Reidlophile (talk) 13:08, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  No Actual Definition 

message: The part about patterns being "inbuilt into DNA" seems a little ridiculous, especially since it doesn't say what kind of patterns. Please delete it if there's no answer to this soon, since there's no citation. Peachypoh (talk) 10:42, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The line was actually, "Blaschko's lines are an invisible pattern built into human DNA." While true (if overly simplistic) I can see how it might be a little unclear. I've made some changes to the article and added inline citations throughout. It's probably still somewhat confusing, but articles on rare and little-understood medical conditions are bound to be somewhat technical. Kafziel Complaint Department 07:06, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

message: I heard that Blaschko's lines were visible under ultraviolet light. Is this true?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.11.147.39 (talk) 06:09, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be nice if any website that mentions that would provide technical specifics such as the wavelength, how powerful etc. of UV light is required to see the lines, if a person has them. Bizzybody (talk) 21:25, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
