On 9 May 2024, it was proposed that this article be moved from Wallaceina to Crithidia brevicula. The result of the discussion was moved.

Requested move 9 May 2024

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Consensus to move to Crithidia brevicula; consensus to split content related to unrelated species to Wallacemonas. (closed by non-admin page mover) BilledMammal (talk) 16:18, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wallaceina → Wallacemonas – As of 2014 onward, the type species of Wallaceina (W. brevicula) was returned to Crithidia, and the remaining species are now under the new name Wallacemonas (see: doi:10.1016/j.protis.2014.07.001 and doi:10.1098/RSOB.200407). — Snoteleks (talk) 15:28, 9 May 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

Is this the best solution? Wallaceina was erected for Wallaceina brevicula and several other species that have now being synonymised as Crithidia brevicula. Several new species were later added, but have now been shown to be unrelated and placed in Wallacemonas. It seems these should be the subject of a new article on Wallacemonas and, as Crithidia brevicula sensu lato is the primary topic of traditional Wallaceina, Wallaceina should redirect to Crithidia brevicula. — Jts1882 | talk 08:00, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As neither Wallaceina brevicula nor Crithidia brevicula exist, Wallaceina could be moved to Crithidia brevicula and genus with four species and the enlarged species cover the same topic. — Jts1882 | talk 08:04, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Split between Crithidia brevicula and Wallacemonas, as the current article subject overlaps both. Wallaceina should redirect to the former, its type species. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 13:02, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unfamiliar with the situation, I rely on Jts1882's description of it above. In which case, the article history should reside (and be moved to) Crithidia brevicula; any page splits can be done from there. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 14:25, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Rotideypoc41352, Chaotic Enby, and Jts1882: to help implement this split, being more familiar with the content than I. BilledMammal (talk) 16:20, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
