Talk:Erythrocyte

Moved Red blood cells to Erythrocyte
My rationale for moving the article is based on the fact that the word erythrocyte is both the original, and the “scientific” name of red blood cells. Most, if not all scientific and medical organizations formally recognize and prefer the word erythrocyte, not red blood cell, although both are used in the media. Further, the word “red blood cell” is a layman term, per se, and is inappropriate for an encyclopedia which should aim for accuracy and consistency. You wouldn’t call a lymphocyte a “lymphatic cell”, would you? --Every1blowz 07:57, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
