Comments on CF diagram

Nice image. I'm a visual learner, so I like these diagrams even when they recapitulate the text. It's a shame we can't wikilink the labels (yet?).

• "nose and sinusis" should be "nose and sinuses"  Done
• "osteoperosis" should be "osteoporosis"  Done
• "clubbing" is a manifestation of "hypertrophic osteoarthropathy" - you could consider dropping one of them  Done
• penultimate box on right could be labeled "Reproductive"  Done

Hope this helps. -- Scray (talk) 14:35, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Thank you, and I ve made the changes you recommended  Done MaenK.A._Talk 15:30, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

As I look again, I notice that the background colors of the text boxes are attractive but they carry no meaning. For instance, they don't correspond to colors in the diagram. I point this out because they do reduce contrast, making it a little harder to read the text (perhaps this is worse for some readers than others). I'd consider making the boxes light gray, or even white with a soft border. Legibility is, after all, the primary goal of text, and should only be sacrificed for a reason. -- Scray (talk) 16:19, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Rather than removing the color, you could just lighten the backgrounds significantly. -- Scray (talk) 16:28, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

I made the colors much lighter, but I dont think I should remove them, Is it better now?? MaenK.A._Talk 21:41, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

It does look better now. -- Scray (talk) 23:39, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

I think you've duplicated "Clubbing". Also, about half of the anatomical headers are italicized - you might want to italicize all or none. -- Scray (talk) 16:56, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

"GERD" is preceded by a space (after the dash) unlike all other list members. I would consider replacing all of the dashes with whitespace; they contribute no information that indentation and structure don't already convey, and in some contexts (especially medical) they are read as negation, i.e. "absence of". -- Scray (talk) 17:00, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

I Removed the white space, But i dont think we should remove the -, as it would look messy MaenK.A._Talk 21:38, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

• "Osteoperosis" is still misspelt. [It should be "osteoporosis".]  Done
• Some of the box headings have italics while others do not.  Done
• The file title is misspelt: "manifistations" should be "manifestations".

I need help about renaming the file, how to do that?? sorry for this mistake!! MaenK.A._Talk 21:38, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

To rename, follow these instructions (I think you need to use the renaming template on Commons). -- Scray (talk) 23:39, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Thank you,  Done MaenK.A._Talk 07:54, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

That's odd about "osteoporosis" - it's been correct for almost 2 hours in my view - a caching issue? I also noted the italicization issue above, but I find it funny that I missed the misspelt filename - glad you caught it. -- Scray (talk) 17:34, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Hmm, "Osteoporosis" is right now. :-/

I would normally try to move a misspelt page title, but for some reason (likely technical because this is a file page) I can't move it.

The only manifestation not categorized is "inguinal hernia", which involves the intestines, so I suggest you put it there and rearrange the boxes to balance them (left and right). -- Scray (talk) 23:39, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

I ll work on this now MaenK.A._Talk 07:54, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Now  Done MaenK.A._Talk 10:04, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Congrats MaenK.A. on a very nice image! No doubt there will be other tweaks, but it's already useful. -- Scray (talk) 18:06, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Thank you so much :-) MaenK.A._Talk 18:37, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
