[edit] Inappropriate weight?

The article mentions, "weight that is inappropriate for the height"; does anyone know if this means too little weight, too much, or either? Dan 02:53, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Most likely too little.

"J.M. Barrie is a famous case" - does this mean that he suffered from it - no mention on his bio page; or that Peter Pan did? Peter Pan is not a good example since he's fictional.

An example in literature would be Oskar Matzerath, leading character from "The Tin Drum", by Nobel Prize winner Günter Grass.
