No references

Surprising to find no reference here to the genetic basis of language in general or to the FOXP gene in particular, e.g. "FOXP Genes, Neural Development, Speech and Language Disorders by Hiroshi Takahashi, Kaoru Takahashi and Fu-Chin Liu [1]], where we find information such as the following: "The spatiotemporal FOXP2 mRNA expression pattern suggests that the basic neural network that underlies speech and language may include motor-related circuits, including frontostriatal and/or frontocerebellar circuits. This assumption is supported by brain imaging data obtained by using fMRI and PET on the FOXP2-mutated patients and also by analysis of Foxp2 mutant mice." Not sure where, if not here, such information might be most usefully added. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:59, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

merge

Instinctively, I can see the merge making sense. But you'll see that within the language disorder page there is a delineation between SL and just language. So we'd have to remedy that. Moreover, I started the page because the page Special Education in the United States has an intro paragraph where about a third of the disabilites do not have pages! So if merged all I ask is that there is an internal link on that page...

(For the record, this thread is about merging Speech and language disability into this article) The delineation between "speech" and language and language can of course be pointed out in the text. As to linking from other pages, this will automatically be done by a WP:Redirect which I will create for Speech and language disability after the merger, a standard procedure.

It just appeared to me that we could as well leave "Speech and language disability" as it is and use it as a sort of portal for both Language disorder and Speech disorder, pointing to these in the other article. That would even make more sense as they are apparently different conditions. De728631 (talk) 17:39, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think that is a good course of action.
