Undiscussed move reverted

[edit]

@GnocchiFan: I have reverted your undiscussed move to Infected blood scandal in Japan because the title is not consistent with Contaminated haemophilia blood products. This article is about haemophilia blood products where contamination was known about and an alternative already available. This situation is unlike the United Kingdom where all the official papers refer to infected blood in relation to the Infected blood scandal in the United Kingdom, which you point out in the move discussion,and initially, no alternative was available and the sources of infection was not identified but were speculated about as potential risks. The situation is different in Japan, where sources use the term "tainted", not "infected", blood [products] and the manufacturer knew about the contamination and had an alternative available. While some discussion has taken place about the Japanese situation, I don't think it was sufficient to conclude the Japanese article title should also be changed because no move proposal was notified for this particular article. Please propose a move of this article, first, setting out your reasons for moving it. There are 5 criteria for renaming an article and consistency is only one of them. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 18:28, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
