Reverse zoonosis → Anthroponosis – The page does not contain any sources supporting the opinion that "reverse zoonosis" is a common term. It should be moved to Anthroponosis according to sources like [1]. --Hwem (talk) 06:25, 23 March 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. Primefac (talk) 07:41, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I have converted this rename request into a templated RM - no content change. Primefac (talk) 07:41, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Here are some counts from Google Scholar:
- "reverse zoonosis": 1,070 results
- anthroponosis: 988 results
- zooanthroponosis: 1,350 results

So it seems like pretty much a wash. The article was stably at the title "Anthroponotic disease" for most of its history (since 2007). It was boldly moved to the current title in January of 2021. I'm neutral on the merits of the move for now, but wanted to at least share the above information in case it's helpful to other editors. Colin M (talk) 17:53, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - The proposed name is not the common name per the above. No objection to moving to zooanthroponosis. FOARP (talk) 14:30, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reverts and original research

I reverted edits that claimed that Reverse zoonosis and Anthroponosis are the same. --Hwem (talk) 05:28, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Please comment on reverts. This page is originally about Anthroponosis. Some user decided to make it a page about Reverse zoonosis, instead of creating a new page. I reverted it. --Hwem (talk) 07:25, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
User Tleemundo added huge amount of original research to this page. Even the first sentense is wrong and not supported by source given. --Hwem (talk) 07:39, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Just a note, I have split your comments and added a header. Primefac (talk) 07:41, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
