Talk:Shaquem Griffin

Edit to his bio
He is not just an amputee, he was born with Amniotic Band Syndrome. The pain of his condition caused the surgeons to remove his hand. My son was also born with this condition. I’m new to this and do not know how to submit an edit, but I think it would be more accurate and respectful to state what his condition is and why he has no hand.

 * @Boobug0609: All of that is already in the article. —C.Fred (talk) 18:47, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

@C.Fred I see that but it is not in the heading which is what most people read which is why I made the suggestion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boobug0609 (talk • contribs) 18:52, 4 May 2018 (UTC)


 * @Boobug0609: The introduction is a summary of the article. Not every item from the body is included there. —C.Fred (talk) 18:56, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

@C.Fred Yes, I realize this, but it wouldn’t be adding anything more, just changing “amputee”.


 * "Amputee" appears to be the best term to succinctly describe him. —C.Fred (talk) 19:01, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

Well I respectfully disagree. Amputee could mean anything, for instance a car accident caused it. It could say, “He was born with ABS causing the necessary amputation of his hand.” — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boobug0609 (talk • contribs) 19:14, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
