Name Change in 2017?

Is it now time for WP to recognise the change in name too? I would suggest swapping the lead to "Primary biliary cholangitis, previously known as primary biliary cirrhosis, ..." or just use this word order with "also known as ...". For good qualilty sources, please look at: [1] [2] [3] [4] I would propose the article name is also changed, with the redirect changing to be from "primary biliary cirrhosis" to "primary biliary cholangitis".

PBC level of technical information

I am writing as Head of Education and Development at the PBC Foundation.

I can see the need for the changing of this article into less technical terms, whist maintaining its technical integrity.

I am unfamiliar with the inner workings of WP but would still like to help.

I shall create an account over the next few days and come back here to read your comments/advice.

Yours,

Robert.
