Re: FEVR
[edit]You're welcome. I am totally blind myself, and I know a bit about the main causes of blindness, but I must admit that I'd never heard of this disease until today. It's a challenge to have one child with a vision impairment, but having *four* sounds ... amazing!
I've moved the article for you, since it seemed to be pretty uncontroversial to me. You'll be able to move articles yourself once your account is four days old and has made ten edits. Guidelines for writing medical articles are at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Medicine-related articles, and you can ask for help about medicine-related issues on Wikipedia at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine. Guidelines on reliable medical sources are at Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine). Graham87 04:32, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
Also, you'll probably find one of the tools listed here to be indispensible for writing citations; just type in a PMID or similar and the script will do the rest for you. Graham87 04:42, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
