I think the idea of having a lead article "Pain" which stands independantly, yet links into all the subjects you mention is brilliant. Why don't you start writing "Pain" as an article. I am not foresighted enough to see all the links, but I do know that there are several of us active on the wiki that are flexible and collegial and can, hopefully, collaborate on such a spectrum of articles. I like to think of Citizendium as primarily focused for the user- and what I love about your "Pain1" is that it introduces the complexity of the subject in, to fall back on a cliche- a very "user friendly" manner. I do not have the focus at the moment to go through in detail, but my general impression is extremely favorable. I would be honored to help author once you start the article. Thanks for showing this to me. Nancy Nancy Sculerati MD 18:54, 9 February 2007 (CST)

Pain in infants and children

I would appreciate including this topic. I have been beside myself too many times battling the fixed idea of many people that somebody too young to verbally complain 'feels no pain'. Nancy Sculerati MD 08:00, 10 February 2007 (CST)

Now in Main article space

My own idea is that of a "cycle" of articles, integrated yet each one stand-alone, so that the reader may over time get an overview of the importance of the subject to humans. One would like all the add-ons that persons think should be there recorded somewhere. At present this is at the end of the article, but a "topic suggestion" sub-page may work better. I see the Category tags don't work, so I will just delete the lot (except CZ live, of course :-))- I do not think they help much anyway. I would rather ask at the specific workgroups (e.g. philosophy, healing arts) if there are persons with an interest in contributing. --Christo Muller 12:56, 12 February 2007 (CST)
