Moving the article to a slightly less specific name[edit]

I am performing a move to a slightly less specific name : "Iboga-type alkaloid"

I recently did a revision [1] (previous here [2]) because the article was short and didn't focus on actual iboga alkaloid like its name suggested. Before said revision the article used this PNG to list synthetic analogs of Coronaridine i.e., 18-MC, ME-18-MC and 18-MAC.
There are already places that list iboga-specific alkaloids : the article Tabernanthe iboga and also Category:Alkaloids found in Iboga
Ibogamine and its close structural analogs seem to be often called iboga-type alkaloids in the literature : [3] // [4] // [5]

For those reasons, I will change the article name to this slightly less specific wording. Then, one part of the article can describe alkaloids found in iboga specifically. Another part describes the aforementioned synthetic analogs of ibogamine. And finally, another-another part can list similar alkaloids found in Tabernanthe and Tabernaemontana, such as Catharanthine and Vobasine. Reph-415 (talk) 15:16, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
