Talk:Barnaviridae

Shouldn't the lowest taxon be the one with the page?
Should:
 * page: Mushroom bacilliform virus
 * redirects:Barnaviridae, Barnavirus

Is: Webclouddat (talk) 06:09, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
 * page: Barnaviridae
 * redirects: Mushroom bacilliform virus, Barnavirus


 * move request does not work:
 * error:
 * The page could not be moved, for the following reason:
 * The page could not be moved: a page of that name already exists, or the name you have chosen is not valid.

 * it should be at Barnavirus, with Barnaviridae and Mushroom bacilliform virus as redirects. The rule is to use the lowest taxon, but no lower than the genus. See WP:MONOTYPICFLORA and WP:MONOTYPICFAUNA (viruses obviously aren't flora or fauna, but there's no reason viruses, bacteria, fungi and protists should be treated any differently). You can't move an article over a redirect if the redirect has multiple edits. This article was at Barnavirus from 2005 until 2015, so there are substantial number of edits to both titles.

 * If there isnt another page by 2024; (V-2023), and i remember, i will probably make a request to move it back to barnavirus Webclouddat (talk) 01:18, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
