The categories 'bacteriology' and 'bacteria' are messed up, incomplete and need an overhaul.

I believe that original intention was to place bacterial species in 'bacteria' and use bacteriology for subjects related to the study of the bacteria, such as diseases.

I'll start updating in a few day from now - any additional ideas are welcome. Spitshine 17:13, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
