Talk:Septo-optic dysplasia

message: I have a 8 month old daughter that was diagnosed 1 week ago with septoptic dysplasia, she have irregular eye movement and is slow on her psycomotor skills like rolling over, crawling etc. I live in HOnduras Central America and faraway from the Cities I live on an Island of the Coast of Honduras, I would like to know What can I buy to do therapy on my baby at home, whatever help you can give me I would appreciate maybe a web page that sells things to do these therapies
please help me
:Wikipedia cannot provide medical advice. If the delayed motor development and irregular eye movmements are due to SOD, there are no medicines or treatments you can buy that will change those. As described in the article, if a child with SOD is lacking some of the pituitary hormones, replacement of those might help the development, though not the amount of vision. If you were in the US in a remote area and asking the same question, I would give you a clear answer: it would be worh a visit to a large city children's hospital to ask those questions of a pediatric neurologist, a pediatric ophthalmologist, and a pediatric endocrinologist. However, I do not think I can guess the access to resources of a person who writes fairly good english and has internet access in an unevenly developed country like Honduras, nor whether you would find value in a local treatment I might consider a placebo. Best wishes. alteripse 13:25, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Make sure she has a full endocrine work-up, because SOD can be a life-threatening condition notably because of cortisol deficiencies. Make sure there is music in her environment, particularly if she is attracted to it, and try to use musical talking ('sing-song' speech) to stimulate conversation. It's up to you to provide physical stimulation, moving her arms and legs. 'Pattern' your child physically in the crib and as she begins to crawl. 71.106.5.16 22:35, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The adrenal insufficiency risk is remote if no replacement has been started, but you are correct it should be assessed. However, recommending patterning is simply cruel: it is an expensive, not universally available sham treatment that has been shown repeatedly to have no objectively demonstrable value, and is often sold with fraudulent promises. The last thing she needs is expensive American quackery. alteripse 22:47, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That user is not recommending a quack therapy. She's recommending what you should do with all non-sighted infants, in an effort to keep their brains stimulated. Also, keep in mind that as some infants with SOD mature, their brains often learn to make use of the very limited visual information they are receiving... Many parents with have a sixth sense about whether their child is completely blind or not. That may not count as "medical advice," but it is parenting reality. 209.78.98.26 20:52, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:South Tyrol (disambiguation)

message: Everything in this so-called "disambiguation" is already described in South Tyrol, it describes the same thing. Gryffindor (talk) 13:57, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure that's entirely true (there's far more on the Talk page about the various names than there is on the article itself) but even assuming that it is completely true, what do you expect to change by a merger nomination?  A successful merger would end in a redirection of this page to South Tyrol.  The disambiguation page is already a slightly-glorified soft-redirect that includes the primary target and a secondary target which is mentioned in passing (and buried in the fourth paragraph) of that primary target.  If you think that a redirect would server our readers better, make your case.  Or be bold and see if the change sticks.  The one result of a merger that would not happen is the deletion of this page.  (I mention this only because your speedy-deletion nominations have been declined twice already, leading me to believe that there is a misunderstanding about the process.)  Redirects - and disambiguation pages like this are equivalent - are cheap.  Unless there is active potential for harm or confusion, there is too much likelihood of breaking an inbound link (whether internal or external) on a title this old.  We routinely keep such pages for their value to the project history.  Rossami (talk) 14:25, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  I believe this disambiguation is not needed anymore. South Tyrol is the main article and actually the part south of the Alpine divide was known as Südliches Tirol = Southern Tirol; imo - since a redirect wouldn't make much sense and actually there is only one place really named South Tyrol this disambiguation page can be deleted, archived, removed - whatever is appropriate in such a case. noclador (talk) 21:58, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

text: There's really no need for a disambiguation. There's only one South Tyrol. Prior to 1918 the whole area from Ala (in the south of Trentino) to Kufstein (in Austria near the border to Germany) was known as Tyrol. The Brennerpass signed the divide between the northern and southern part of Tyrol, and the southernmost part (south of Salurn) was known as Welschtirol (welsch means italian - today this area is called Trentino). The terms Südtirol, South Tyrol and Alto Adige were coined only after 1918 to denote the newly formed province of of Bozen.--Sajoch (talk) 07:05, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Regarding insane changes:
	The reason for our blatant change to this article is not to be interpreted as shenanigans. As you, being an editor of this site, know, Wikipedia is a source of immense knowledge, and in most cases is the location of the largest amount and highest quality information. Unfortunately, many school teachers feel that Wikipedia is not a credible source as it is able to be edited (this we believe merely enhances its credibility). In response to this we developed several planned tests one of which involves recording the time it takes for faulty or incorrect edits on an article to be corrected. So I ask to anyone disturbed by this change that you do not report us for ruining the sanctity of this site, but understand that we are attempting a feat which without your assistance will be nearly impossible.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheHSWikProj (talk • contribs) 00:10, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Santo Domingo Dominican Republic Temple

message: Thanks to Mkpaquette for the various efforts on temples in Central America.  I certainly see the point of what is trying to be added to the article about services/languages at Santo Domingo Dominican Republic Temple, though I still don't think it has a place in a wp article.  My natural inclination would be to remove it again, but opted instead to note it hear and provide opportunity for discussion.  A wp article doesn't typically seem to be the place to ensure people know to reserve space or call ahead for a particular service need. ChristensenMJ (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Before visiting this temple, I looked for information about what services would be available there (they vary from temple to temple).  LDS.org said "Cafeteria vending", but what did that mean?  It also said "Guest housing available", but how could I avail myself of it?  Also, would they be equipped to deal with me, a non-Spanish-speaker?  I could not find answers to these questions anywhere, including on Wikipedia.  I now have the answers.  I think that they are informative, and they'll certainly be useful to anyone reading this article with the intention of visiting this temple.  You're right about a Wikipedia article not being the best place to ensure that people know to reserve space or call ahead.  No doubt, these answers should be available elsewhere, but they're not.  Is it standard practice on Wikipedia to exclude information simply due to the fact that the information should be available elsewhere? Mkpaquette (talk) 20:10, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks for the response.  What I am noting is that standard wp practice is to try and provide an encyclopedia-like, fact-based article or information that doesn't end up reading like an advertisement, marketing piece or something like unto it. Simply including something that doesn't appear to exist someplace else typically does not justify inclusion in the wp article.  This is not a informational webpage.

Much of the "organization" stuff needs to be moved up to the Key Club International article since it is the same. Probably needs shortening in the process.

The article must have footnotes. See other articles. This will be the first criticism made by a real "outside" reviewer.

message: Here is the story of why it was built in [Western] Samoa as I heard it: 
    American Samoa was supposed to get the temple.  When they went to Samoa to announce the building of it, they were greeted with dancers in traditional dress.  The GAs said, to dress in a way that you can keep your garments on, but the American Samoan leaders said, well, this is Samoa, we will dance "Fa'a Samoa" (in the way of Samoa) so they finished the ceremony, the GAs said, thank you, and left, with out the announcement that they were going to build the temple there.  Then they went to visit [Western] Samoa, and guess what, everyone, even dancers, were wearing clothes, even the traditional dress, cut in a way  that allowed for the garments when they got there.  They decided to build the temple there. Any sources to confirm or deny that?  Billy Nair 22:16, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
