Template:Todo3 Neisseria menigitidis? I'm having trouble believing meningitus has never reached the radar on the 'pedia...
- It's Neisseria meningitidis. There is an article on meningitis, just none specifically on that species of organism. Someone else 22:48 Oct 23, 2002 (UTC)
- wow thanks! I'll have to ck my dictionary! I searched a bit looking for that one!--dgd
Why is Thiomargarita namibiensis listed as a pathogen? What disease does it cause? -- Someone else 22:59 Oct 23, 2002 (UTC)
- woops. it's gone
I'll have this page on my to do list, unless someone lists the mechanics pathogens use to cause disease before me :) -MGM 15:03, Apr 18, 2004 (UTC)
The page was listed on "pages needing attention", and User:Heidimo also asked me to take a glance at it. IMHO, most material is redundant and could be merged with list of infectious diseases (just add the names of the pathogens to the diseases they cause). Just a list of all known pathogens is a silly endeavour. Any opinions?

- may be useful for those just wanting the term defined. I think it is now quite good for most purposes.--inks 14:24, 7 Jul 2004 (UTC)
