Should it be used in all relevant articles? --apers0n 08:43, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it should be. And what about the same image for autosomal dominant forms? NCurse work 17:01, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

text: I've made a search for autosomal dominant expression and started to put that image into the articles. I'm over the first page of the search . I'll continue. If someone want to help, I'm here now. NCurse work 16:19, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Or add all the relevant images to a category and link to that category page. --apers0n 09:16, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, for example :Category:Medical Genetics Images? Or what else? NCurse work 12:09, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The category :Category:Medical genetics images now exists as a subcategory of :Category:Medical genetics --apers0n 15:00, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

text: Sorry for the late answer. I must agree with you about the fourth one, but I have to think about the third one. NCurse  work 12:26, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the first and second are almost identical, except for the figures. I mean, they seem very redundant, one should go, and I think the first is the best. I want to remove the crosshatch on the first to make it even better. PAR 15:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Terrific work everybody! Can I ask for a bit of help with something?  I've worked a lot on the page on Tay-Sachs Disease.  I have tried to turn it into a good summary of peer reviewed research on Tay-Sachs. 
Some person (with no log-in), who is probably well meaning, keeps adding a one sentence claim that Dr. Joanne Kurtzberg of Duke University has cured several cases of Tay-Sachs Disease.  I looked into the matter, and Dr. Kurtzberg is clearly a leading medical researcher, however she and her colleagues have not reported any such results yet.  Indeed, the success she has reported is with Krabbé disease, not Tay-Sachs. 
What do we do when a person who is not qualified and does not understand what they are writing about keeps trying to modify a page?  How do we maintain standards?  Could somebody who is an editor change that page and make it require a log-in to make edits?  --Metzenberg 06:10, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: So, I had a look at the article's history. Regarding the rules, you can revert anon editor anytime you want. But if you find it boring (as I think so you find it), leave a message here and the admins will take care of him/her. We can't insert such a sentence without reference so don't wait to report this incidence, it would largely ease your work. I'm now on wikiwacation, but I'll have a deeper look at your article. Fine job! :) NCurse  work 07:42, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Pharmacogenomics and Public Health Genomics and Gene Therapy

message: I'm a non-member of the project, since I don't have the education to really contribute as yet, but I am studying genetics and disorders in the context of my medical laboratory science studies. Are there public-domain pictures available of some of the conditions which tend towards distinctive physical manifestations? I noticed some on the Down Syndrome page, and I think it would be useful for non-technical readers, since the descriptions of physical appearance tend towards the technical and are difficult to visualize. Thanks. SkepticalGal 21:26, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, adding to incomplete statement above. My concern about images is specifically with those conditions characterized or initially diagnosed primarily by visible malformations (e.g. Muenke, Apert). SkepticalGal 22:31, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's really hard to find proper and freely usable images. We can't use images with copyright. So if you know any kind of resources, don't hesitate to tell us, and I'm going to upload all of them. :) NCurse  work 21:43, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Would someone who understands the meaning in the context of genetics like to expand on Monogenic (genetics) — as opposed to monogenic (mathematics) — it seems to me that of the three links I have just changed, at least one, at Environmental factor, is not adequately dealt with by this redirect.

thread_title:  Monogenic 

message: Hi all 
As a newcomer to this can I request some help please. The picture at the head of the Crouzon page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crouzon_syndrome does not in my opinion accurately represent its typical picture. It's clearly a very severe (and untreated) presentation of a craniosynostosis and I'm not sure whether it is actually Crouzon - has its source been verified? As a paediatrician it worries me how parents with newly diagnosed infants will react when they see this picture. Thank you. Charmoo123 (talk) 19:23, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
