Talk:List of chronic diseases linked to infectious pathogens

Origins of this article -- Hip (talk) 23:35, August 10, 2020 (UTC)
I wrote this entire article myself. Originally I uploaded this article on Wikipedia back in around 2011, where it existed as a Wikipedia article for a few years.

Then at one point in 2015, a Wikipedia editor decided that my article should be deleted, and most other Wikipedia editors agreed. It was deleted because the editors said there was insufficient evidence these pathogens cause their associated disease (even though my article did not claim the pathogens cause the disease, only that they are associated with it).

Just before they deleted my page, I copied it, and moved it to a Google Sites web address here: https://sites.google.com/site/humandiseaseslinkedtopathogens/ where it has been for a few years.

Someone on Wikipedia resurrected my article in 2017, and it is now found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infections_associated_with_diseases

However, this version of the article I created today on MEpedia is more comprehensive and more up-to-date than the older version on Wikipedia.
