That article never says "imprinting" in citation 3. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.174.140.216 ( talk) 01:56, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
This page also has some relevant and useful information on Prader-Willi and Angelman syndromes. genetics play an important role also
As it stands, this article seems to miss explaining the central topic: what the term "imprint" actually refers to.
On a page related to Ref 1, http://geneimprint.com/site/what-is-imprinting there's a discussion of why this phenomenon is called "imprinting". Apparently "imprinting" refers to marks added (printed) to a gene in either egg or sperm which disable this gene. The idea that marks are added in an egg to particular genes, and in a sperm to other genes, goes a long way to explaining the rest of the story.
This nugget of explanation ties everything else together, it seems to me. I hope someone savvier than me could incorporate this into the article. Gwideman ( talk) 10:45, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
Hello, all. I intend on reviewing and editing this article in the near future. I'm placing this advance notice to allow anyone interested in collaborating to say so, and also to collect comments on what should be improved. I've already noted that the text is not accessible to the wide audience, and will try to edit it as to be more user-friendly. Further comments and advice would be much appreciated.

PLease read the following paragraph from the genomic imprinting article. Could some one either correct or delete the line from the NOEY2 paragraph:
Therefore, if a person inherits both chromosomes from the mother, the gene will not be expressed and the individual is put at a greater risk for breast and ovarian cancer
How does someone inherit both chromosomes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shannonpack ( talk • contribs) 13:17, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
Agreed, suggest that a small paragraph be included on when and where imprinting takes place, esp for humans. — Preceding

In trying to make sense of this encyclopedia "article," I find that it consists of a collection of aphorisms lifted from various sources and loosely pasted together. There is no overarching sense being made, such that a reader can become familiar with the subject by reading the article. It is the "too many cooks" syndrome, with each author dropping a small contribution into the pot, and then leaving. If Wikipedia is to be a useful encyclopedia, its articles should have the capacity to educate a person who is not already grounded in the subject. I assume that each sentence in the article is true on its own; however, small bits of truth do not magically combine to form a useful article on their own.
Without some effort being made to organize this mess, it is pretty useless. Volunteers? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.20.8.226 ( talk) 23:45, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
Recently I've some minor editing dispute with user: 131.111.5.162 with the definition of imprinting. It is clearly stated in the article cited that:
"Genomic imprinting is a remarkable epigenetically regulated process that causes genes to be expressed in a parental-origin-specific manner".
I'm not a native level English speakers but it seems to me that the definition written in the article by using preposition such as "by which" raising some problems. Although in this context it might be correct, it will raise confusion especially for non-native speakers. Is it possible rephrase the definition in more sensible manner without reducing the meaning? I would suggest just to follow the cited article cited because it is simpler and I'm open to any suggestion.
I also had added an explanation that this terms is often used interchangeably with parent-specific-gene expression. Adeuss ( talk) 15:26, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
