Rename

The ICTV recently renamed this virus in the latest release to Morbillivirus hominis.[1] This article should perhaps be moved? Bob247 (talk) 14:42, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'd prefer just to use the virus name for the article i.e. "measles virus" and not the species name. Graham Beards (talk) 15:02, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That would also be acceptable.--Bob247 (talk) 15:31, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I will add the formal name in the taxobox. kupirijo (talk) 18:39, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
