What to do with the Infobox?

The infobox to the right in the introduction is copied from Wikipedia, but some of the data make no sense. Is this something that can be amended, or is it better removed?Mikael Häggström 05:32, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

Better to move it to the talk page until it can be fixed, and until we can determine that it's a good idea to have that kind of infobox. --Larry Sanger 08:52, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

Here it is:


Rheumatoid arthritis
ICD-10 ICD10 F84.0-F84.1-ICD10 F84.0-F84.1
ICD-9 714
OMIM 180300
MedlinePlus 000431
MeSH D001172

Cleanup

There has been a basic cleanup, but a proper one has only gotten to Epidemiology so far. Mikael Häggström 08:32, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

Lots of unsupported statements and tedious wording. Since it looks like most of the content was moved from WP, I am hoping nobody will be bothered if I clean a bit. - Robert Badgett 04:23, 2 November 2007 (CDT)
