Talk:Multifocal seizure

No point to make a new stub about a specific type of seizure when an article on seizures already exist. --Ultimus 02:40, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I added this for 2 reasons. First, I've seen more than one article pointing to this one, and it was missing. Second, neither in Epilepsy or Seizure a proper definition of multifocal seizure can be found. --Aristiana 16:58, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

There is merit on having an article on just one seizure type - if it can be expanded enough to justify itself. I can't find any Wikipedia articles that link to this one, or use the term. The term multifocal seizure is used occasionally in the literature, but not often. It isn't an officially defined term on the level of focal seizure or generalized seizure. Really, it is just the addition of multi to focal seizure where the reader is expected to work out the intended meaning.

I've moved the Types sections out of Epilepsy and Seizure into its own article: Seizure types. There is a brief mention of the phrase multifocal seizure in that article. I suggest this be made to redirect to Seizure types as I believe there isn't enough content to expand this article beyond a sentence or two. Colin°Talk 17:40, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
