Title[edit]

Is there a source for the rather inflammatory title "No Leprosy Patients in Our Prefecture Movement"? A more literal translation of 無癩県 (mu-, "un-", rai, "leprosy", ken, "prefecture") would be "Leprosy-Free Prefecture Movement"; in particular, there's nothing about patients in the original. Jpatokal (talk) 09:55, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A good question. There are some sources that do use this name ([1], [2], [3], etc.), though they tend to be recent articles that may have gotten the name from the Wikipedia article (the second was also retracted for some reason). Other names exist, including "Leprosy Free Prefecture Movement" or "Campaign" ([4], [5], [6], [7], etc.) or "Non-Leprosy Prefecture Campaign" ([8]), but it seems the former is more common. Perhaps you should request a title change per WP:ROM. Michitaro (talk) 12:04, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: procedural close: requester blocked as a sockpuppet. No prejudice against speedy renomination by any editor in good standing. (closed by non-admin page mover) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 07:07, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No Leprosy Patients in Our Prefecture Movement → Muraiken Undō – I propose moving this to the Japanese original, as some editors have raised issues on the talk page with this translation, as well as possible citogenesis of this English term as the translation for "Muraiken Undō".
