TCS

Hello, as an assingnment of ErasmusMC in Rotterdam we are trying to make this page complete and as good as possible. We used your page in our text so it isn't totally deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Plastische erasmusmc (talk • contribs) 07:29, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello :) Your additions to Treacher Collins syndrome are welcomed, but please add them without removing Wikipedia- and MEDMOS-standard content. Thank you. Rcej (Robert) - talk 07:50, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is this the right lay-out? Thanks for your advices. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.83.3.42 (talk) 08:59, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Much better :) Rcej (Robert) - talk 04:51, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Intelligence

I have reverted the edit "People with Treacher Collins syndrome have normal or above-average intelligence" as there is no reference for this statement. --apers0n 15:06, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is a USA Today video report about Juliana Wetmore that refers to TCS persons being "typically above average intelligence". Her doctor states this at 2:10. I realize that a better source needs to be used; however, this gives those interested in this article the inspiration to seek one. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2014/05/22/inspiration-nation-girl-without-face/9448421/ Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 03:44, 15 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

External links

External links on Wikipedia are supposed to be "encyclopedic in nature" and useful to a worldwide audience. Please read the external links policy (and perhaps the specific rules for medicine-related articles) before adding more external links.

The following kinds of links are inappropriate:

Online discussion groups or chat forums
Personal webpages and blogs
Multiple links to the same website
Fundraising events or groups
Websites that are recruiting for clinical trials
Websites that are selling things (e.g., books or memberships)

I realize that some links are helpful to certain users, but they still do not comply with Wikipedia policy, and therefore must not be included in the article. WhatamIdoing (talk) 07:44, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I will remove the link to Juliana Wetmore's website. --W2bh (talk) 19:20, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong name

I think the name should be spelled "Treacher Collins syndrome", see Bence Jones protein — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.134.59.169 (talk) 09:41, 13 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Criteria for diagnosis are wrong!!!

The criteria mentioned for the diagnosis of Tracher Collins are not correct. They are a set of proposed diagnostic criteria about hemifacial microsomia. I read the article (27), it had nothing to do with Tracher Collins. Hemifacial microsomia is a different condition. I do not know a similar set of criteria established for Treacher Collins, to replace those. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.32.165.56 (talk) 23:04, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

deletion

Doc James I saw that you deleted relevant referenced material. Furthermore, you called the deletion "adjustment in your edit summary. This is misleading. I am restoring the information that an editor had correctly added to this page.--Wuerzele (talk) 22:00, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think the edit you are looking for is this one [1] were I stated "trimmed as unreffed" Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 22:03, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No. I think you are diverting and --as so many times, as ususal- not responding to the above.--Wuerzele (talk) 08:55, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can you provide an exact copy and paste of the text you are claiming I deleted in this edit [2] Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 16:22, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

wonder

Wonder is a children's novel by Raquel Jaramillo, under the pen name of R. J. Palacio,[3] published on February 14, 2012.

the boy-august has collins syndrome and you learn to se how difficult it is to fit in with is

Palacio wrote Wonder after an incident where she and her three-year-old son were waiting in line to buy ice cream. Her son noticed a girl with facial birth defects. Fearing he would react badly, Palacio attempted to remove her son from the situation so as not to upset the girl or her family but ended up worsening the situation. Natalie Merchant's song "Wonder" made her realize that the incident could teach society a valuable lesson. Palacio was inspired by Merchant's lyrics and she began writing.[4] The book has a released spin-off, 365 Days of Wonder: Mr. Browne's Book of Precepts.[5] In August 2015, the book Auggie and Me was published.[6] A film adaptation is set for release in 2017.

Franceschetti–Klein syndrome

Is there any reason why Franceschetti–Klein syndrome should remain a separate article? It seems to just be another name, more common in German-speaking countries. Umimmak (talk) 04:07, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
