Welcome!
Hello, BlueStream, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some links that can help you get started editing:
And for more detailed information:
- Help pages - the instruction manual, contains everything you could possibly want to know
- The five pillars of Wikipedia - our principles, or how to get on with other editors
- Manual of Style - how to format articles, where to place pictures, and other stylistic matters.
All of this information can be daunting, but if you have a question and can't find the answer, you can always ask me on my talk page or go to Wikipedia:Where to ask a question. One last thing: please sign your name when leaving messages for others on article and user talk pages using (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. I hope you enjoy editing! --Malthusian (talk) 15:40, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Zion (IRC)
The article Zion (IRC) has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.
Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 15:25, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Per your request, I moved the text of this article to your userspace at User:BlueStream/Zion (IRC). Please look at WP:ATTRIBUTION before reposting the article to main space. Thanks, NawlinWiki 16:32, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Influenza
Hi there, I saw your edit and was curious as to which influenzaviruses are resistant to disinfectants? TimVickers 16:05, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Tim. I'm no biologist but I believe I heard somewhere on the news that some strains of the H5N1 virus were resistant to disinfectants. I also heard in passing that the Spanish flu is resistant to disinfectants. --BlueStream 07:08, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
