[edit] link spam

I would encourage the commercial vendors adding links to their products to note Wikipedia's spam policies. — ceejayoz talk 23:16, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merging

IMO, Actigraph should be merged into this article, Actigraphy, with Actigraph redirecting to Actigraphy. Then Actimetry should redirect to Actigraphy. Actigraphy is the term used in the US, see: http://www.aasmnet.org/Resources/PracticeParameters/PP_Actigraphy_Circ.pdf , while it's possible that actimetry is used in Canada(?). --Hordaland (talk) 22:54, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Since at least one of these articles has been marked for merge for a half a year with little discussion, I've now done the merge as suggested above.
Actigraphy is the process, the method, similar to Polysomnography; polysomnograph redirects to polysomnography. Explanations / descriptions of the method, its reasons and uses, and the device used all fit nicely within this article. --Hordaland (talk) 02:40, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
