– We currently have 3 different naming conventions in use across this split of 7 articles that should be unified somehow. First off, we shouldn't disambiguate unless there's something else to disambiguate from, so NS4A through NS5B should be moved to have no disambiguator entirely. For those that do need disambiguating, we should agree on one consistent disambiguation - none of the ones in use seem suitable, as HCV is an ambiguous acronym and Hepacivirus is vague (and lowercase "hepacivirus" is just wrong). I would suggest "(Hepatitis C protein)". * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:28, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment how about writing the names out rather then disambiguating the abbreviation? Or include the virus as part of the title (not a parenthetical disambiguator). Hepatitis C virus nonstructural protein 2, or Hepatitis C virus NS2 protein. Hepatitis C virus envelope glycoprotein E1. The titles of the sources for these articles often write out abbreviations in some way (and when they don't the abbreviation is usually written out early in the source (HCV NS4B is in this title, but the first sentence begins with "The hepatitis C virus (HCV) non-structural 4B (NS4B) protein")).

I have no objection to that titling format, which just didn't occur to me. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 15:44, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
