Suggestion

Isn't there a story in Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul 4 About a girl who has Canavan Disease and was the first person to undergo gene therapy to the brain? 76.88.107.42 03:09, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's a May proposal to merge Canavan disease to Spongy degeneration of the central nervous system. However, the latter article was created by a single-purpose account, Conanyam, rather than improving or moving the existing article. Perhaps this existing (2002) article was missed. So, suggest a merge to the older article (Canavan disease) that uses a more traditional, and still widely-used, name. Klbrain (talk) 16:28, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Even considering just what's discussed here, there's way too much specific to Canavan Disease for that to make sense. Besides, technically speaking, spongy degeneration of the nervous system is a very broad topic, and a number of bases are associated with it. Merging the Canavan Disease article into the one about spongy degeneration of the nervous system would be making a much closer association between Canavan Disease and, say, Mad Cow Disease, than is honest and appropriate.
