Factor I Deficiency came through AfC and is outside my areas of competence, but it appeared the two were discussing related conditions. I don't actually have any opinion about which should be, in the case of a merge, the surviving title. Cheers, --j⚛e decker ^talk 03:09, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Factor I Deficiency is the broader term for a range of conditions in which fibrinogen is of low concentration or is defective; the most severe form is Congenital afibrinogenemia. Given that they are different, I don't think that a merge is necessary. However, if it was merged, then Congenital afibrinogenemia should form a distinct section in Factor I Deficiency.
