Colorblindness edit

[edit]

I am new to editing on Wikipedia. Sorry if I am not doing something correctly. I have a rare genetic vision condition called BCM (1 in 100,000 people have it). It is so rare that I did not get a diagnosis until I was 57 years old. Very few eye doctors have any experience with it which means they misdiagnose it. My edit is trying to help other people that do not know what they have to find out. BCM was already discussed in the colorblind article but is hard to find and has some inaccuracies. I wanted to add a sentence to the beginning paragraph to help others like myself figure out what they have as easy as possible without having to wade through the rest of the article. For someone who knows they are colorblind and that there vision is generally bad but don't know what their conditions is, and neither does their eye doctor, one of the first things they would do is go to Wikipedia and look up colorblindness. However, the bulk of the article is talking about typical color blindness issues and is not easy to go through and figure out that they have BCM. The sentence I added is no different than the previous sentence which points out that Achromatopsia (another rare eye disease) is the complete absence of color vision and lists the added symptoms. I just tried to add the same kind of sentence for BCM to help people like me figure out what they have. Dean402 (talk) 01:45, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Dean402. Because this conversation is specifically about the article Color blindness, we should hold this conversation at Talk:Color blindness, so that everyone interested can join in. In a few minutes, I will start a new section there. Mgnbar (talk) 01:55, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting my edit

[edit]

I edited the article because the image at Sport coat was saying "Tweed sport jacket" but it should be said "Tweed sports jacket" because "sports jacket" is the correct way to say it, as there are no options saying "sport jacket". So why did you revert it because it was not an improvement? ~Rafael (He, him) • talkguestbookprojects 13:57, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think that all combinations of sport/sports and coat/jacket are acceptable. But you feel more strongly than I do. So edit again if you like, and I won't revert it. :) Mgnbar (talk) 14:38, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Mgnbar thank you for understanding. ~Rafael (He, him) • talkguestbookprojects 02:17, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
