The article Multisystem Developmental Disorder appears to be describing the same condition as Multiple-complex Developmental Disorder, so I have proposed they be merged into this article. There does not appear to be much information about these developmental disorders, so I would rather see if anyone else with a little expertise on multiplex developmental disorder has to say before I just merge them.-- NeantHumain 18:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
I hope you don't mind I've gone ahead an removed the merge label, as it seemed to me that you suggested the merge only because you knew less than I do about the difference between these two terms. I've also expanded the Multisystem Developmental Disorder article to clarify the distinction. MultiSYSTEM Developmental Disorder is a diagnosis applied only to small children, and is a relatively mild disorder. MultiCOMPLEX Developmental Disorder comes with a lot more baggage: severe emotional and behavioral problems, panic attacks etc. I agree that the terms sound too similar, I would change them if I could, but unfortunately I was not granted that power. ;-) -- woggly 06:33, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
I took this out of the article; not sure if it was worth saving, but just in case:
"But every Autist isn't the same. the article that you are reading doesn't go up for every MCDD'er i know because i have MCDD. short explanation: you just see an apple. i see the apple more complex. i'm very good with PC's but awfully bad with topography and Dutch. in group 4 i was working english at the level of someone that is in group 8!"

Here is my take on the sources you used:
I hope this helps. Yuu can visit WP:RS and WP:V for more information about appropriate sources. Whatever404 ( talk) 01:58, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
I recently reverted another round of changes to this article, because in many places, the sources used did not support the statements in the article. Several of the sources are self-published blogs, which fail WP:RS. Also, several of the sources list symptoms of a given disorder, such as autism or schizophrenia, but the sources do not mention MCDD at all: these cannot be used to support lists of MCDD symptoms. I provided literally dozens of reliable sources from PubMed, perhaps some of these can be used instead. Please also format any references used correctly per WP:CITE. Whatever404 ( talk) 12:35, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
I have visited PubMed and added all available sources for multiple complex developmental disorder and multiplex developmental disorder. There are now perhaps 20 sources available on the page which can be used to improve the article. Whatever404 ( talk) 13:56, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
I have MCDD and Asperger syndrome, and i strongly disagree with the symptom of mental retardation, i myself have a IQ over 120, and i have 2 friends who also have MCDD, the first one also has an IQ of over 120, and the other one has an IQ of 141, and i checked with my psychiatrist and mental retardation is not a symptom of MCDD. -- Lordcat33 ( talk) 15:56, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
I've never seen anything in the literature regarding a connection between MCDD and savant syndrome, and it seems that this page is the only prominent suggestion of a link. It strikes me as probable speculation produced from the aether, and I'm removing the relevant section. If anyone thinks it should be re-added, please do so (with reference to external documentation, no anecdotes please). 150.101.121.196 ( talk) 14:14, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
