I also deleted the Questionnaire section.  One, it's POV, as it is only one way to diagnose depression, and 2, providing a how to on an information page is a slippery slope, even if it's only a small part of the entire eval.  Blessings...  --[[User:Michael J.

==Deleting content==
I think we should be very careful about deleting content. 1) The PHQ2 session was well referenced and does not seem POV. If you feel there are other dx strategies, please add them rather than delete well-referenced content. I did tone down its wording as it had a simplistic, how-to approach. You could have done that rather than deleting the text. 2) Ouch, I see now that the PHQ9 content was not at all referenced and even worse 'how-to'. I have restored and fixed that. - [[User:Robert Badgett|Robert Badgett]] 02:32, 19 December 2007 (CST)
==Copyright content==
The alert to the DSM-IV copyright issues seems more obtrusive than needed. Consider:
# changing 'unauthorized reproduction of diagnostic criteria' to 'unauthorized reproduction of ''their'' diagnostic criteria'
# removing the horizontal line and instead do something like indenting the text or preceding the text with 'Note:'

Diagnostic How to's...

I removed the subpages from the Talk page...redundant.

I also deleted the Questionnaire section. One, it's POV, as it is only one way to diagnose depression, and 2, providing a how to on an information page is a slippery slope, even if it's only a small part of the entire eval. Blessings... --Michael J. Formica 06:56, 12 November 2007 (CST)
