Spleen
I see you re-inserted info on measures to be taken if lacking a normal spleen. (I presume you were until a couple of days ago anon user 86.138.112.198). I had delete this info as the article is about the spleen (i.e. what it physically is) rather than about any single procedure or disease affecting the spleen or being caused by the spleen. Hence further information is expanded on splenectomy, splenomegaly, malaria, sickle cell disease and asplenia and is not overly expanded upon in this one article. There already exists a subsection of Spleen entitled 'Absence' which clearly links to asplenia.

That said, I agree some information was lacking on the asplenia article (i.e. expanding on travel information and mention of animal & tick bites) - so I merged some of (?your) information into asplenia, see this edit difference. If you wish to discuss this further, then please comment on the article's talk-page - Talk:Spleen. As per above welcome, if you have any general queries, then please contact me on my talk-page.
