Symptom: pancreatis?

'Pancreatis' is listed as a possible symptom of infestation with ascaris lumbricoides. Surely this should be pancreatitis. I'll amend this immediately; would someone please correct the article if this is incorrect. --TraceyR (talk) 22:30, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Link to italian wiki

I tried to add link to italian article for Ascaris, and I got the following error:

"The link itwiki:Ascaris lumbricoides is already used by item Q468771. You may remove it from Q468771 if it does not belong there or merge the items if they are about the exact same topic."

I'm not wiki-expert.. could somebody fix it?

The interlanguage links now are done at Wikidata. Montanabw ^(talk) 05:42, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

so what does this mean in practice? And what is the correct page to link to in the Italian wikipedia? Note there is a page on Ascaris and a separate page on Ascaris lumbricoides (which is apparently already linked). Perhaps there is no Italian page for Ascaris yet?EvMsmile (talk) 07:25, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging Pigsonthewing to figure it out. I don't get it at all, frankly. Montanabw ^(talk) 06:25, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Italian article is it:Ascaris lumbricoides, which is linked to Ascaris lumbricoides (Q468771), the item about the species. This article is linked to Ascaris (Q310838), the item about the genus. There is no it:Ascaris, but our Ascaris lumbricoides links to the Italian species article. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:50, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Strange sentence Structure

"Presence of a false body pseudocoelom not lined by epithelium. Digestive system is complete. Respiration by simple diffusion. Nervous system consists of a nerve ring and many longitudinal nerve cords. Only sexual reproduction. Sexes are separate with sexual dimorphism. Males are usually shorter than females"

Does anyone else find the sentence structure a little incomprehensible, with incomplete sentences not even connected and with the least verbosity possible? Its bothering me to the level I might change it myself, anyone else think like this or is this fine? Silicysis (talk) 00:35, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've tidied it a little, though it's still uncited. Though poorly expressed, it was accurate, so far as I can tell. It had been there since 2015 ([1]). Adrian J. Hunter^{(talk•contribs)} 11:31, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
