I take issue with the "Alternative therapies" section of this article, as it appears to be giving these treatments [[WP:UNDUE|undue weight]]. While I have no issue with them being included in the article, I feel it should somehow be made clear that these treatments are generally unsupported by science. What I mean is, something should be included like in the lead of the linked [[:Alternative therapies for developmental and learning disabilities]] article, i.e. ''"These therapies generally rely on theories that have little scientific basis, lacking well-controlled, large, randomized trials to demonstrate safety and efficacy; small trials that have reported beneficial effects can be generally explained by the ordinary waxing and waning of the underlying conditions."'' However, I can't seem to come up with and adequately brief and concise way of doing so, so thought I should bring it up here. <font face="sans-serif">'''[[user:Alphathon|<font color="#900">Alphathon</font>]]'''&nbsp;<small>/'æl.f'æ.θɒn/&nbsp;<sup>([[user talk:Alphathon|<font color="#900">talk</font>]])</sup></small></font> 17:40, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Orthography is key to any form of dyslexia managment

Orthography is key to any management of dyslexia as it determines the skills required to perform the task of reading, it also determines the cognitive skill deficits that can cause dyslexia and therefore dictates the form of any interventions that may be required. dolfrog (talk) 20:24, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative therapies

I take issue with the "Alternative therapies" section of this article, as it appears to be giving these treatments undue weight. While I have no issue with them being included in the article, I feel it should somehow be made clear that these treatments are generally unsupported by science. What I mean is, something should be included like in the lead of the linked Alternative therapies for developmental and learning disabilities article, i.e. "These therapies generally rely on theories that have little scientific basis, lacking well-controlled, large, randomized trials to demonstrate safety and efficacy; small trials that have reported beneficial effects can be generally explained by the ordinary waxing and waning of the underlying conditions." However, I can't seem to come up with and adequately brief and concise way of doing so, so thought I should bring it up here. Alphathon /'æl.f'æ.θɒn/ (talk) 17:40, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Dyslexia interventions. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
