User:Lagg0515/Schizoaffective disorder/MoonRabbit1992 Peer Review

First of all, I like how you deleted the unsupported claim regarding side effects of antidepressants, but did you look for a source to support this claim before deleting it? If not, I would suggest you do that before deleting it from the article; you may find a source that supports the claim. Second, I like how you rewrote the hospitalization sentence to make it more clear. Third, your first source is good, but I agree with Dr. Rahn that the second source is at risk of being outdated. Peer-reviewed sources need to be less than 10 years old, and your second source is 2 years away from meeting that cut-off.

Also, to avoid confusion for future edits, you might want to copy over the entire lead section, so it doesn't look like you've shortened it entirely and left out a good bit of unnecessary information.

Suggestions for other edits/additions:

The History section should not be at the bottom. Move it so it's after the lead section.

This article has a good bit of block quotes. I'd review the source and then paraphrase.

I don't like the parts of this article that have like 7 citations behind it. Surely one block quote doesn't need that many citations.

There are also sentences that are not succeeded by citations, so either find a source for the claim or remove it.

"Because of the heterogeneous symptomology associated with schizoaffective disorder, it is common for patients to be misdiagnosed. Many people are either diagnosed with depression, schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder instead of schizoaffective disorder. Because of the broad range of symptoms of Schizoaffective disorder, patients are often misdiagnosed in a clinical setting. In fact, almost 39% of people are misdiagnosed when it comes to psychiatric disorders. "

This is under the treatment section, but it should be in the diagnosis section.

Epidemiology
Compared to depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder is less commonly diagnosed. Schizoaffective disorder is estimated to occur in 0.3 to 0.8 percent of people at some point in their life. 30% of cases occur between the ages of 25 and 35. It is more common in women than men; however, this is because of the high concentration of women in the depressive subcategory, whereas the bipolar subtype has a roughly even gender distribution. Children are less likely to be diagnosed with this disorder, as the onset presents itself in adolescence or young adulthood.

This section also seems more like diagnoses. I don't know why it is alone.
