1. The image used here has no educational value in my opinion. There are no free images for this kind of tumor, but there are better non-free images that should be used instead of this.
2. Bibliography section is a copy-paste kind of work and obviously was not used during writing of this article. Filip en (talk) 21:49, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

An image of some kind might be useful, had I not seen this I would not have been able to grasp the (possible) severity of the condition. 88.148.219.245 (talk) 19:49, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Merging of Esthesioneuroblastoma and Chantal Sébire

The merging of Esthesioneuroblastoma and Chantal Sébire done by User:Splash worsend both articles: - the Esthesioneuroblastoma article was the only good article in the net concerning this very rare tumor, the article about Chantal Sébire had given some biographical details, - biographical details which should be improved !

I think we should have two articles:

• 1.) concerning the Esthesioneuroblastomaas very rare tumor – and this article should include all relevant medical, biological and biochemical details.
• 2.) concerning Chantal Sébire as a person, who sufferes from this tumor and her fight for an end in dignity

Hello Christophe. I agree certainly with (1), but unfortunately I had to delete most of the article we had until just now because it was a copy-paste from a medical website — which is therefore a much better source of information than Wikipedia (see [1])! I think the important thing to do is make that article really good, and then these couple of sentences about Sebire will fit more comfortably. As for the article on Sebire, I do not think we need an entire article to contain those three-or-so sentences, since they contain the total information about the subject and are only notable within the context of having an extremely rare disease. It's only because of that she has appeared in media reports, and that is not good grounds for a whole article (see WP:BLP1E, for a particular policy justification which I also linked in my redirecting edit summary). This kind of article tends to accumulate a lot of excess detail about the individual that is not encyclopedic and that results in all kinds of undue weight problems. I would not link to the YouTube video at all, personally. It's not what either the condition or the person are famous for. Regards, Splash - tk 22:05, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

"I do not think we need an entire article to contain those three-or-so sentences, since they contain the total information about the subject and are only notable within the context of having an extremely rare disease." So long as the article has been given the name "Esthesioneuroblastoma," then it must contain information regarding the disease. Wikipedia is a knowledge and classification data base for information, not merely a hotlinking site.--Waxsin (talk) 16:52, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

You need to go and read the conversation again. Noones talking about the article on the disease at all. Splash - tk 17:40, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Esthesioneuroblastoma is not Neuroblastoma according to Wikipedia.

User:sxdev 17:48, 21 March 2008 (UTC) Link goes to a page that says it is not the same thing by: "Since it is not a sympathetic nervous system malignancy it is a distinct clinical entity not to be confused with neuroblastoma"

first paragraph is not correct. The proper name of tumor is either esthesioneuroblastoma or olfactory neuroblastoma (Dulguerov 2001), but it's not a neuroblastoma variant and it is a distinct pathological entity. Filip en (talk) 13:17, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
