Copyright

A lot of the text from this article appeared to be copied or paraphrased from http://laredatenea.com/alba.pdf and http://www.fhspereclaver.org/migra-salut-mental/Ulises/Ulysses%20text%202%20english-1.pdf. I have tried to reduce this as much as possible by rewording content. I would appreciate someone copyediting to ensure there is no copyright violation remaining.

Definition

There seems to be two different definitions of Ulysses syndrome:

1. A set of symptoms experienced by migrants following migration^[1]^[2]^[3]

2. The ill-effects felt by patients due to a wrongfully diagnosis^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]

Would it be more appropriate to split this article into two articles in order to address the two different definitions? I am not an expert in this topic, perhaps the definition regarding symptoms experienced by migrants refers to a wrongful diagnosis of a disorder. That's what this article seems to suggest in the bottom paragraph of the second page. LoudLizard (talk) 22:42, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

UCSF Medical Student Wikipedia Elective - Workplan

Hello, I am a medical student at the University of California San Francisco editing this article as part of a class in Winter 2017. Here is my workplan:

Why?

High priority, start quality article
Personal interest in refugee and migrant health
With over 65 million displaced individuals in the world today, information on mental health of migrants is likely more important than ever

Initial Analysis

Poor sentence structure and awkward syntax
Nonuniform use of terms
Unclear definition of syndrome (i.e. due to stress of migration vs. wrongful diagnosis)
Paragraphs too similar to source material
Lacking treatment options (e.g. use of CHWs)

What Will Be Added/Augmented

Edit for grammar, clarity, uniformity, and brevity
Improve use of source material to avoid copyright/plagiarism
Add section on treatment and therapy considerations

What Will Be Removed/Diminished:

Background of Dr. Joseba Achotegui

Coordination Plan:

Work-In-Progression (WIP) sessions on 11/27, 12/1, and 12/15
Submit interim progress reports for WIP sessions on 12/6 and 12/11

WikiProject Med Peer Review - 12/11/2017
Overall Comments/Suggestions

Great job! Props for choosing to work on a start-quality article on an interesting and . Clear description and history of the condition.
Consider adding an image or figure - even if it’s a picture of Ulysses? Just something to break up the words.
Consider adding in any epidemiological data about migration in general, or estimations of how many people are affected by this condition? Even if there are no data on this, you can mention that in the lead.

Specific Comments/Suggestions

The 2nd sentence is necessary (repeats much of what is said in sentence 1)
New paragraph before “The syndrome is named after…” and incorporate Dr. Joseba Achotegui coined the term "Ulysses Syndrome" in 2002.”
Bold the 4 category titles of the extreme stressors
Symptoms can be a bulleted list

Strong work! Michelleyo (talk) 06:30, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
