This is an encyclopedia, we don't list the diseases BLP subjects may have had on their articles unless there is a reason to. Weird how this is far more likely to happen to women than men (what is the last time you read about the reproductive health of a male BLP subject on their wiki article?). What is the point of mentioning it? And just because its mentioned in a newspaper does not mean we have to mention it as well; they don't follow our rules and their goal is to sell newspapers.

I'm not suggesting a "list the diseases". I'm suggesting that this is a rare, and thus notable, medical condition. If it was widely reported, I see no reason for it to be excluded. I haven't checked. I think promotion of an awareness of health issues is overall a good aim. Martinevans123 (talk) 14:44, 7 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
We are not going to "raise awareness" of diseases by mentioning every disease every BLP subject may have had. And of course the fact that someone with no medical training is aware of the existence of a disease they know nothing about does nothing to help those who actually suffer from that disease. If it has been widely reported has little to no bearing on whether it should be included or excluded; see WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Your local weather forecast has been widely reported, but there is no Wikipedia article about it. I agree that the medical condition itself is WP:NOTABLE, and we have an article about it, but the fact that this person may have been diagnosed with that condition is not.

Again, I'm not sure I was advocating "mentioning every disease every BLP subject may have had" or creating an article about "my local weather forecast." Looks like we'll have to agree to differ on this. Martinevans123 (talk) 14:54, 7 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
@Polygnotus: I did not "add irrelevant personal medical information and information about non-notable children into the article", I reverted your edit which removed well-sourced information. If there is consensus that that information, although widely reported, is irrelevant then that is fine by me. But let's not make false accusations here.
