Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction

I believe that this page should be re-opened as a separate entity.

Besides the publishing of new papers since the deletion of the page in 2014, I am worried about merging this with the main SSRI page. Reports show that PSSD is very rare, and I believe that alluding to PSSD on the SSRI page without discussing it further creates confusion among readers.

It is disappointing to try repeatedly to address concerns raised in the Articles of Deletion to simply have these articles referred to blindly as a validation for continued lack of separate existence for this page.

I agree that this article is not of the quality that it could be, but disagree that it isn't of quality that merits blind reversals of edits.

PSSD is mentioned on wikipedia in other languages:

Spanish: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%ADndrome_de_discontinuaci%C3%B3n_de_ISRS#Disfunci.C3.B3n_sexual_post-ISRS https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disfunci%C3%B3n_sexual_post-ISRS

Italian: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disfunzione_sessuale_post-SSRI

Portuguese: https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_SSRI_Sexual_Dysfunction

Dutch: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSRI-bedingte_sexuelle_Dysfunktion

French: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dysfonction_sexuelle_li%C3%A9e_aux_m%C3%A9dicaments_ISRS

I have no idea how to work the other languages on Wikipedia, but know that of the 10 supported by the project, 1/2 definitively have PSSD pages, and the rest I cannot be sure of. English is the only language where I am certain that a PSSD page doesn't exist as its own entity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GhostPSSD (talk • contribs) 17:39, 8 June 2017 (UTC)


 * It may be useful to work on a userspace draft (i.e. at User:GhostPSSD/sandbox) or in draft space and to discuss it at the Wikiproject Medicine talk (Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine). Since this 2014 AfD concerned a previous version of the article, it could be considered obsolete if the new version was different enough to the original one; another AfD could then proceed (2nd nomination) if necessary.  But a proposed draft may be necessary to convince other medicine related editors that there is enough material for a separate article.  It is also important for the new article to not be a POV fork (WP:POVFORK).  Also make sure that the early draft contains most of the sources you intend to reference.  If your draft is accepted, it could eventually be merged into the old version (that is now a redirect) by consensus.  If after presenting your sources other editors don't agree that a new article is necessary, it would unfortunately be a waste of your time to write a new article using those at this time.
