message: Just wanted to compliment you on a wonderful job. You've take a framework and turned it into a really first rate article. Chapeaux! Waitak 15:21, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You're too kind. I know how to gather data, but it takes someone like User talk:Silence to really spiff it up. Glad you like it, tho! WAS 4.250 16:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course I am, but it's still good work. :-) One of these days we need to meet up for a beer when we're in the same hemisphere. My son and parents in law both live in Jersey City, so it's not altogether unlikely... Waitak 11:37, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Great job! 

message: The following unsourced questionable content was moved from the article to here:
:Most of the time, Disease surveillance is the domain of spatial epidemiology. Disease informatics is an important tool in spatial epidemiology. Disease surveillance is crafted by practicing ongoing systematic collection of health data, defining the diseases, drawing and analysis of Disease Causal Chains, and formulation of Health Strategy. Apart of infectious agent, genetic make up of an individual, lifestyle, culture, and environment of human individuals have relevance in human health and disease. Disparities in these aspects form component causes of most of the diseases. Some of the component causes work together to form mechanisms for sufficient causes of the diseases. Spatiality of disease occurence depends on which component causes combine.

thread_title: Unsourced questionable content

message: Please do not focus too much on using a single disease as an example. It is distracting to the topic of the article.
My deletion may be perhaps overzealous, and I will not interfere with a gradual re-inclusion of rewritten (tone, copyvio and encyclopedic concerns must be addressed) material from the H5N1 section. It is entirely preserved in wikipedia archives, feel free to view it here.--ZayZayEM 12:57, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: A little history: This article started as a paragraph in one of the H5N1 articles - the only place in WP that this topic was of sufficient interest to actually bother writing about.. It seemed that it had enough meat to stand on its own as an article. It was a bit of a shock to hear that what used to be most of the article's content and focus is now no longer on the topic of the article! There's a lot in the section that you deleted that (1) merits inclusion in WP and (2) doesn't occur anywhere else. For these reasons I've reverted the deletions. Please feel free to copyedit or otherwise improve the quality of the section! Alternately, if you really feel that what the article has become has outgrown the focus that led to its creation, perhaps you'd like to hive off a child article on just H5N1?

replies: text: Please use an argument for its inclusion on this page. Material that merits inclusion on Wikipedia that is in an innapropriate namespace warrants deletion.--ZayZayEM 00:15, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

text: Original article is very good. No specific focus on any single disease - mentioning WHO actions involving TB, HIV, SARS and H5N1. H5N1 is a very recent development, it should not be the focus of any article such as this which has at least 2,000 years of history in its subject matter, its distracting and provides undue weight to a topic.--ZayZayEM 00:38, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

text: WAS when disagreeing with non-vandalism edits, I would suggest that discussing them on the talk page, and addressing concerns brought by other editors involved, rather than systematic reversion with a "you're ignorant" attitude. The Nabarro list is totally unencyclopedic, and removing it is copyediting. All we need to do is say what nabarro feels, not a personal list style summary that has no actual content. Please also consider rewording the extensive quote section I have deleted if you really feel it needs to be included. Quote block with plenty of elipses (...) should be avoided with extreme prejudice.--ZayZayEM 00:00, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

text: WAS please discuss contested reversions. Just because material is sourced doesn't mean it is appropriate for the article. Just because material is arguably appropriate but written badly, doesn't mean we should include over exclude, material really shouldn't be in articles if it is not up to article standard.--ZayZayEM 01:49, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Please keep to topic 

message: It appears surveillance and reporting are being discussed as one entity (which I can understand, sort of). To me this seems a more appropriate broader term than the specific "reporting", especially if all aspects of surveillance are to be covered.
Anyone object--ZayZayEM 00:35, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
