External links[edit]

Strange linking of entire paragraphs to a questionable external site — Preceding unsigned comment added by Loltim (talk • contribs) 07:16, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Name[edit]

This is best kept at "Nipah virus infection" IMO. This is similar to "Ebola virus" and "Ebola virus disease". This article is obviously formatted as one about the disease. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 20:54, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate references that could be merged[edit]

There are a number of references that appear to be duplicated. I list them here, but there may be some false positives. I have done some work on the article and references. If anybody cares to merge some of them, I suggest that the list below should be edited to help others who may later merge more (instead of, or in addition to, appending further comments).

What edit do you think should be made to this article? This talk page is for discussion of the article, not of the subject (Nipah) or other related subjects.--Shibbolethink ^(♔ ^♕) 15:11, 15 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
