Talk:Eating disorder not otherwise specified

[edit] Edits

I have cleaned up the wording of the Characteristics section of this page. I have also added the DSM-IV criteria and one external link to the Something Fishy section on EDNOS. I would like to add more to the page, but I'm not entirely sure what else I can add. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to contribute. [SECTION REMOVED]

Hi Melange fiesta, thanks for your contributions. Having to get permission or let people know before editing an article goes against the idea of Wikipedia though. No one owns any article and like it say below the edit box: "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it.". Icey 16:31, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Hey. I will change that... sorry. :| (Does it show that I'm new?) Melange fiesta 16:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

No, it shows there's so many policies and guidelines that it's impossible to learn them all :) Icey 16:47, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I added the Pale Reflections and *Not Otherwise Specifed* Links. I feel the latter, is a much better explanation of EDNOS, seeing as how the person suffers, therefor knowing more about this subject that one can find in any textbook/medical journal.

I have added a link to the national eating disorder charity beat, i would also suggest a summary of this page is added to the main eating disorder page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.164.233.90 (talk) 08:51, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] DSM Criteria

Someone decided to take liberties with the DSM criteria and add "or overweight" to the end of criterion #2, and something about "overweight body type" to criterion #4, so I have changed both of them back to what they are supposed to be. If it's not actually in the DSM, it doesn't belong here!! Melange fiesta 15:08, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
