Default Just a note

Just a note to remember,
The presence and workings of subshells is something that is usually covered in higher level chemistry, so as to not confuse members without such knowledge we should explain the old, plain "likes to have a full 8 electrons in a shell, so either loses or gains..." at first, and if the member requires further explaination we should continue from there.
