Merge to Multiple Sclerosis

This page should more properly be merged over to Multiple sclerosis since that is more relevant than an Orphan article like this one. Cpt ricard (talk) 23:20, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cpt ricard! I oppose a merger on a few grounds. Firstly, Uhthoff's phenomenon is not exclusive to multiple sclerosis, but instead can affect any person with a demyelinating disease (as is now referenced in the article). Secondly, Uhthoff's phenomenon has quite a detailed medical description which is somewhat separate from demyelinating diseases more generally - as the article now stands at over 3,600 characters of readable prose, there is perhaps too much detail too well sectioned for a merge with Multiple sclerosis (which also has over 46,500 characters of readable prose).
