References

In my reference to The Times I gave the full title of the article - it can be seen in the edit, however it does not show up in the Referenes.Osborne 21:35, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

There is no <references /> tag in the references section -- the references are placed in that section manually via templates. You can do the same with yours (chose the appropriate {{cite}} template) or you can add a ref tag there. I would suggest the former. - Revolving Bugbear (formerly Che Nuevara) 21:39, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Numbers

How is that single fact get its own section, and is it anything more than trivia? dude1818 (talk) 05:09, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Hyper? or Hypo? pigmentation

The lead on the article states the Malassezia can cause hypopigmentation. This seems unusual to me. I know in domestic species, chonic irritation (such as can be caused by Malassezia), tends to lead to a HYPER pigmentation (similar response occurs when you get a tan). I don't know what its likely to do in people though...

Unless its attacking melanocytes, I don't know why/how it would depigment the skin.

By releasing acids that burn the skin. Correctrix (talk) 11:49, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Hyperpigmentation

Referring to the person questioning Malassezias' ability to cause hypopigmentation in the skin, there is research pointing to one specie of Malassezia found in mainly the pacific ocean causing hyperpigmentation, or white bloches of the skin, "caused by growth of the fungus Malassezia furfur in the stratum corneum with minimal inflammatory reaction."(Haole rot. (n.d.) Farlex Partner Medical Dictionary. (2012). Retrieved September 6 2016 from http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Haole+rot) I believe this is what the author was referring to. My lab does research on this specific fungi and I would be happy to add to the page if necessary. Brooklyn Sedlmayr (talk) 09:38, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Also I would like to change the section where it says his favorite disease was Malassezia furfur as this isn't a disease it is the cause of the disease and more could be added on the different symptoms of Haole rot which is the diseases common name. The section on furfur could be greatly expanded, although it is complex it is a seriously interesting organism that even plays a role in coral functions.

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Malassezia. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20120425120901/http://ijms.sums.ac.ir/files/PDFfiles/29_1_08-Shams.pdf to http://ijms.sums.ac.ir/files/PDFfiles/29_1_08-Shams.pdf
