Update Requests

Please add a section for Cap Verde and link it from Template:2009 flu pandemic table. Thanks | FHessel (talk) 11:08, 24 June 2009 (UTC) Please add a section for Cote d'Ivoire and link it from Template:2009 flu pandemic table. Thanks | FHessel (talk) 11:18, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You should really explain what you want done, this isn't specific enough. 70.29.212.226 (talk) 04:16, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Egypt split

I disagree with a split, since the current section is not long enough to support a split. Perhaps if someone were to expand it to beyond a screen length in size first... 70.29.212.226 (talk) 04:17, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree too because there are not enough comfirmed cases in Egypt at the moment. --82.112.149.178 (talk) 14:17, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone update the table to reflect the first death in Egypt. K.L.Riley 17.34, 21 July 2009 (UTC) Now, the egypt section is long enough to support a split, and I have just updated the count of confirmed cases and deaths, so this might be a reasonable option. Anyone interested? Immunize (talk) 19:21, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed article move

A proposal is afoot to move the 'country' article to a more appropriate location. Thoughts? Bosonic dressing (talk) 10:44, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Evaluation of this Article

The lead does not include a description of the article's major sections. The lead includes information about symptoms, which is not included elsewhere in the article. Additionally, it would be clearer if each section followed a similar style. For example, each country's section could explain when the first case arose, how many people died, and how the flu impacted the country in that order. That way, each section feels concise and easier to read. Overall, I think this article has potential, but it needs some work. Tayyy123 (talk) 20:28, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
