[edit] Merger proposal
This is the text of the proposal. It was misplaced, but I am moving it to the correct location. I will leave a note for the proposing editor. :) --Moonriddengirl 13:35, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
| “ | I'm new to this merging thing. Don't know if I've noted it correctly. It seems pretty clear, however, that Fifth Disease should be merged into Parvovirus B19. Also, a search for "Fifth Disease" should redirect to Parvovirus B19. User:Adammarklenny. 09:18, 6 October 2007 | ” |

- Strong disagree - fairly strong convention to separate out the biology of the organism, from the disease caused. eg Herpes simplex virus and Herpes simplex, rhinovirus and Common cold. This especially true when there is not an absolute 1-to-1 mapping of organism & disease eg Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae both causing Pneumonia, and Parvocirus B19 not just causing Fifth's disease but also seronegative arthritis (and no one surely suggesting that arthritis merges into this article).David Ruben Talk 03:22, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- Strong disagree. See User:Davidruben's logic. There should, however, be prominant links between the two pages. Ask User:Arcadian (administrator) to chime in before this gets merged, please. A0900 18:11, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
