[edit] Recent edits

The recent reworking of the page to be a copy of the DSM-IV-TR criteria seems a little unnecessary. I don't think the page needs to list the DSM criteria verbatim, largely because there is more than one diagnostic system in the world and many conceptions of the disorder (some of which are included in the referenced listed). A link to the full criteria should be enough. Also, the criteria is not meant to be encyclopedic and reads poorly as an encyclopedia article.

I propose to return the page to something a little simpler and easier to read, keep the references (although with referenced properly, it is not clear where the prevalence information etc is from) and link to the full criteria (e.g. here).
