upmerge the "Persian bishops" branch to the main "bishops" tree. It seems like there is a general consensus that the "Church of the East" tree is not completely fitting, so the default for the moment should be an upmerge. The out-of-process shift of contents to the "Persian bishops" was a violation of CFD procedures and will be reverted |

Other Wikipedias use cognates of phthisiologists / phthisiatrists; these two English words appear to be interchangeable in practice, as opposed to "phthisiatricians" which seems to be used for treatment specialists rather than researchers. Ukraininan Wikipedia has separate categories for TB doctors (uk:Категорія:Фтизіатри) and TB researchers (uk:Категорія:Дослідники туберкульозу), so I will link our active category to the latter, and link our redirect to the former. The outcome will be that our active category will no longer be linked to the sole categories in Spanish, Russian etc, which is unfortunate. – |
