Draft feedback

Thanks User:IvanaUrsicIvic for making this draft. I learned a lot about syndromic microphthalmias after reading it. I think the information here is worth including on the wiki, but I'm not sure if there's enough for a standalone article (yet). In its current form, I would advocate for it as a subsection of Microphthalmia or as a disambiguation/list page. I'm working on incorporating MCOPS information over at Microphthalmia and welcome feedback on that as a complement or alternative to this. Aeffenberger (talk) 23:35, 4 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks a lot User:Aeffenberger for your feedback :) My proposal here would be to keep "Syndromic Microphthalmia" as stand-alone article, as Microphthalmia in general is a vast field and syndromic microphthalmia (with all its types) is just one subarea. Also, the exact wiki structure (separate wiki article for Microphthalmia, plus separate wiki article for Syndromic Microphthalmia already exists in German version of wiki). Thank you for including wiki page/info for MCOPS12 Microphthalmia, syndromic 12 (MCOPS12) at Microphthalmia, I suggest to anchor the wiki link in table ("Diagnosis" section). Let me know what do you think&thanks in advance!

@IvanaUrsicIvic: Apologies for not seeing your reply sooner! I forgot to add this page to my watchlist. I revisited Microphthalmia and cleaned up the wikilinks (adding the MCOPS12 link you recommended

) After thinking a bit more, I see how keeping a standalone syndromic microphthalmia article could be useful. Perhaps some of the information on the 'Microphthalmia' page might even fit better here than there. As you said, 'Microphthalmia' should be about the phenomenon itself, whereas 'Syndromic microphthalmia' could be a central place to read about congenital syndromes which cause microphthalmia.

I'm going to take a crack at expanding this draft with information from the clinical utility gene card,^[1] which includes not only the numbered MCOPS but many other relevant syndromes. Making reciprocal wikilinks between this article and all of those would hopefully make it more probable for readers to discover about the lesser known syndromes.

Thanks for letting me know about the German wiki page, too. I don't speak German, but maybe you could help translate any article progress we make here back to that article!

PS: you can ping me with {{reply to|Aeffenberger}} to ensure that I see if you write a reply here. Aeffenberger (talk) 20:17, 11 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
