Despite a few fine points about correct naming of the virus, there is nothing here that isn't already covered in the norovirus page, which is much more comprehensive. I recommend all references to Norwalk Virus be redirected to Norovirus, and let the naming argument be presented there. I will say that I do like the introductory image on this page best though. --71.82.64.203 (talk) 03:43, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- Support – Having two separate articles just to make the point that one is the genus and the other is the species makes no sense, and is just confusing. Let there be only one article, titled with the most common name, which appears to be Norovirus, and put everything into it, including the explanation of the genus-vs-species subtlety. --Deeday-UK (talk) 19:19, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
- Support – Providing two articles about one phenomenon is absurd and confusing. Many more articles could be generated, highlighting one point or another; all equally redundant and thus valueless. Ornithikos (talk) 02:34, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
