I propose thatLábrea fever be merged intoHepatitis D. Because Lábrea fever is essentially another historical term for hepatitis D, it can be covered in the history section (with a redirect to that history section); moreover, theSymptoms and Signs andCause completely overlap with corresponding sections of hepatitis D, unless reliable sources can be shown that these should differ. Merging will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned. In fact, I think this will strengthen the hepatitis D article by adding high-quality historical context. —soupvector (talk)01:12, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
