When the type II seesaw mass term $M_ν^{II}$ is far less than the type I seesaw mass term $M_ν^{I}$, only one of three sterile neutrinos may be the WDM particle. On the contrary, the WDM particles may contain all sterile neutrinos. If $M_ν^{II} \sim M_ν^{I}$, the allowed number is not more than $N - 1$ for $N$ sterile neutrinos. It is worthwhile to stress that three different types of neutrino mass spectrum are permitted when $M_ν^{II} \gg M_ν^{I}$ and $M_ν^{II} \sim M_ν^{I}$.8 pagesHigh Energy Physics - Phenomenologytext
