Talk:Delusional misidentification syndrome

What's it called
when you believe a close relative (or any other person) has been replaced with someone else, without the necessity being same-looking? --Abdull 08:31, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

I've removed Cotard delusion
from the list as it's not a misidentification syndrome (e.g. see Feinberg's recent review). - Vaughan 21:49, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Tone
It is hard to set the right tone for these medical articles (and other technical topics). A case in point is a reference to the writings of "Christodolou". He may be very well-known in the field of psychiatry and professionals assume the article reference is to Dr. G. N. Christodolou, but he is essentially unknown to the general reading public, and there is no current Wikipedia article on him to which to link. The article, for the general reader at least, "assumes facts not in evidence", to steal legal phraseology. There should be a way to balance accuracy and throughness with a formal, yet popular, tone so as not to limit the readership primarily to professionals who ideally should already be knowledgeable of the materials cited here. 166.152.222.225 (talk) 13:10, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
