Zarigani → Cambaroides japonicus – Reasons provided below. Saledomo (talk) 07:51, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

Move reasons:


 * 1) "Zarigani" is not the Japanese term for the species, "Nihon zarigani" is
 * 2) "Zarigani" is not the English vernacular term for the species per references in article
 * 3) Interwiki articles for bg: and no: use Cambaroides japonicus, which seems appropriate when English vernacular term is not clear for a species endemic to a nation that primarily speaks non-English. These article title choices demonstrate precedence.

 * Support per WP:FAUNA ("When there is no common name or no consensus can be reached on the most common name...use the scientific name"). Redirects are cheap.  —  AjaxSmack  15:34, 12 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Support. Multiple vernacular names which either aren't really English (zarigani) or aren't very commonly used (Japanese crayfish). Plantdrew (talk) 22:24, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

Post move clean-up
I have moved the pages as per discussion above. But I dont know what to do with the zarigini page, so for now I have redirected it to Cambaroides japonicus. What is supposed to happen to that page? — usernamekiran (talk)  04:37, 19 August 2017 (UTC)
