It is inappropriate to "suspect" a living person, even if they are a celebrity, of having dyslexia. If they are still alive, it should be considered their private medical data until they have released the information to the public. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Amorrow ( talk • contribs) 2005-06-22T20:50:22 (UTC)
Yeah, I have never heard of Jefferson or Washington, and that is just a theory, on top of that I know Jefferson was a very avid reader, he also showed no signs of it at all.
Think before you speak.

My criteria would be: you do not make it onto the dyslexia "A list" if you do no link to dyslexia in your Wikipedia page. Also, this pre-20th-century people are borderline at best. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Amorrow ( talk • contribs) 2005-07-18T04:36:30 (UTC)
There are many articles referencing his adoptive mother teaching him to read before he started school, and yet his biography (which is not a diagnosis) says he didn't learn to read until much older. [1]

Shouldn't Arnie be added as well? Didn't he say, I think it was last year (2023), that he was identified as dyslexic due to him having to memorise a script? 86.144.206.155 ( talk) 14:44, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
