[edit] Article Assessment for WikiProject Medicine

Hello. I am a member of WikiProject Medicine, a Wikipedia wide project that maintains and improves articles that fall under the scope of medicine. Since your article has not fallen under our scope, I have placed the correct template(s) on this talk page. Leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions. Thanks, and keep editing Wikipedia! Renaissancee (talk) 16:38, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Per discussion at WP:MED itself, Renaissancee's decision is incorrect, and it is appropriate to tag this article. 70.29.212.226 (talk) 06:33, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Maps with Antarctica as part of Argentina

H1N1 Argentina Map.svg Deaths/Confirmed/Suspected map

H1N1 Argentina map by confirmed cases.svg Confirmed cases map

H1N1 Argentina deaths.svg Death count map

The maps of Argentina contain Antarctica... but AFAIK, Argentina respects the Antarctic treaty, is a treaty member, etc... Why does the map contain Antarctica then?

And Antarctica is colored in, does anyone have information on confirmed cases in Antarctica?

[edit] Update requests

Please add asection for Vanuatu and link it from Template:2009 flu pandemic table. Thanks | FHessel (talk) 12:16, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Vanuatu has had a section for a long time now. What do you want to add to it? 70.29.212.226 (talk) 21:57, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Split: Swine flu in New Zealand

I think it's a GOOD idea because there has been a major increase of people infected, what do YOU think? This comment left at 18:27 25 June 2009 by user:82.112.149.178

I fell with the recent rise in cases I feel that NZ should have it's own separate article regarding the 2009 Flu Pandemic as reported cases in this country are going to get higher.

Well, NZ had one of the largest suspected outbreaks outside of Mexico at the beginning... 76.66.203.200 (talk) 05:49, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Y Done

Ok, the article has been split off 76.66.203.200 (talk) 14:40, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed article move

A proposal is afoot to move the 'country' article to a more appropriate location. Thoughts? Bosonic dressing (talk) 10:17, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] New Zealand

The Spanish Wikipedians seem to have created a second set of maps...

We (and the other languages out there) use the PNG versions, the Spanish Wikipedia uses the SVG versions.

[edit] Soloman Is update

The were no cases [[1]]!--86.25.6.93 (talk) 08:36, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Antarctica and Chile

File:H1N1 Chile Map.svg

H1N1 Confirmed Cases Chile Map.svg File:H1N1 Confirmed Cases Chile Map.svg

Why is Antarctica on these maps? There have been no reported deaths or cases in Antarctica, yet it is colored black/pink. And Chile is a signatory to the Antarctic Treaty staying its claim to Antarctica.
