This groups improved the article very well. Most of the sentences were easy to read (some were a bit confusing; see below).

This group made improvement on the article based on their goals. It appears that missing citations were added. In addition, another goal was to add the mechanism of how treatments work, but I felt that the explanation on pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments were vague. Maybe there were not much resources available to elaborate. I did like that you separated the section into pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments. Lastly, I could tell that you changed "patients" to "people", but I found just one (under "risk factors").

The resources cited were secondary, verifiable, and freely available. I visited some pages that you have cited. PubMed was predominant used, and they were systematic reviews. These articles were accessible without subscription.

I like the bullet point format, but it may not be appropriate for a Wikipedia article (some sections are in bullet point, others are paragraph). Maybe using more "subheadings" will be good to organize each section. In addition, I found some sentences to have grammar errors or awkward wording.

Overall, good job, everyone!

Because symptoms of Alice in Wonderland Syndrome can often be fully cleared (spontaneously or with proper treatment), it is thought that most clinical and non-clinical AIWS cases are benign. However, symptoms tend to reappear during an active phase of an underlying chronic disease (e.g., migraine, epilepsy). If treatment of AIWS is determined necessary and useful, it should be focused to manage the suspected underlying disease. Treatment of these underlying conditions mostly involves prescription medications, such as, antiepileptics, migraine prophylaxis, antivirals, or antibiotics. Antipsychotics are rarely used in treating AIWS symptoms due to their minimal effectiveness.^[2]

Thus, modifications to these regions of the brain may trigger to simultaneously cause Alice in Wonderland Syndrome and body schema disorders^[3].

The neuronal effect of cortical spreading depression (CSD) on TPO-C may demonstrate the link between migraines and Alice in Wonderland Syndrome. As children experience Alice in Wonderland Syndrome more than adults, it is hypothesized that structural differences of the brain between children and adults may play a role in the development of this syndrome.^[3]

Alice in Wonderland Syndrome is associated with macrosomatognosia which can mostly be experienced during migraine auras^[1].

Having symptoms of time distortion are correlated with various underlying conditions, for example, substance use, migraine, epilepsy, head trauma, and encephalitis. Regardless of an individual's disease diagnosis, time distortions are thought to be included in Alice in Wonderland Syndrome as it is classified as perceptual distortions. Therefore, a person can be described to have Alice in Wonderland syndrome even if that person is experiencing time distortions due to an underlying condition.^[4]

Alice in Wonderland syndrome is associated with distortion of sensory perception, which involves visual, somatosensory, and non-visual symptoms.^[2]
