Dysgraphia was a Social sciences and society good articles nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There may be suggestions below for improving the article. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

Proposed rewrite focused on developmental dysgraphia
Latest comment: 1 month ago2 comments2 people in discussion
I am R. Colin Blenis, the author of one source used in the proposed draft, so I have a conflict of interest. I will not make this substantive change to the article directly and am requesting review by uninvolved editors.
Scope: The current page mixes developmental dysgraphia with acquired conditions, including dyscravia. The draft limits the article to developmental dysgraphia and directs acquired writing impairment to Agraphia.
Definition and classification: The current page uses handwriting-specific and broad written-expression definitions interchangeably and presents linguistic/dyslexic, motor, and spatial forms as established subtypes. The draft explains the definitional disagreement and identifies the tripartite scheme as traditional but not validated using modern psychometric or clustering methods.
Certainty of claims: The current page says dysgraphia is known to be genetic and specifically a working-memory problem, and it presents experimental digital classifiers as capable of routine automatic diagnosis. The draft states that no single cause or gold-standard test is established and that digital classifiers remain investigational.
Article style and organization: The current page contains a long symptom checklist and detailed how-to treatment and school advice. The draft replaces these with concise, sourced sections on characteristics, associated conditions and psychosocial effects, causes and neurobiology, assessment, management and accommodations, epidemiology, and education.
Epidemiology and jurisdiction: The current page gives a worldwide figure that combines dysgraphia with other conditions and mixes U.S. legal material into general advice. The draft qualifies the commonly cited prevalence range and places the IDEA material in a clearly labeled United States subsection.
The draft does not rely on my publication alone. Its principal sources include Chung, Patel, and Nizami (2020), Danna, Puyjarinet, and Jolly (2023), Vico, Martín, and González (2023), Biotteau et al. (2019), Hoy, Egan, and Feder (2011), Han and Wang (2025), Planton et al. (2013), the DSM-5-TR, ICD-11, and official U.S. Department of Education guidance. My 2026 paper is a single-author integrative review, not a systematic review or guideline; the draft uses it chiefly for cross-disciplinary synthesis and for qualifying the limitations of the evidence. I welcome replacement of my citation wherever another reliable secondary source supports the same wording.
Because the Talk-page banner records a 2025 merge from Dyscravia, I especially welcome comment on removing that acquired condition from this developmental article and directing readers to Agraphia. I would also be comfortable with editors implementing the draft in smaller sections rather than as one edit.
