Default chain lube

There is a good on-line article about this. It is several years old, but I will try to dig it up and post it. Anybody know it??? There are a lot of articles out there, but be sure you distinguish between articles on street bikes, motocross bikes (do not have O-ring chains!), and off-road bikes/ATVs (with O-ring chains). There will be a lot of conflicting information, if you don't get info for the right application.

The article I am thinking about is full length, and also talks about master links, etc.

Chain wax is great at preventing rust during storage. The only disadvantage to wax is that it can get thick and build up sometimes.
