Proposed move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Moved to Placental Alkaline Phosphatase.

ALPP → PLAP — PLAP is the terminology in wide use medically (as a tumour marker in pathology). Mattopaedia ^{Have a yarn} 00:55, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I don't have any strong objection to the move since redirects can be used to guide the reader to this article no matter what the article is named. However I do want to point out that the official HUGO gene symbol is ALPP. Boghog (talk) 01:21, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose — As the page name use a full name, not an acronym. The acronym PLAP is ambiguous (and now a disambiguation page). --Una Smith (talk) 21:07, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as above - instead the ALPP page should redirect to an article titled Placental Alkaline Phosphatase Little Professor (talk) 16:34, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
