Name of article

[edit]

As I wrote when I moved the article (and in my inexperience didn't realise that my string would be shortened), Although "Silk worm cocoon demineralizing" is more self explanatory, the proper scientific term is just "Demineralizing", so the article and Wikipedia as a whole are more correct named as such.

Cf Wikipedia article "Phase (matter)"- although could be named "Matter phases" etc., the proper scientific term is just "Phase", and brackets are added for clarification. Many scientific and other terms are of this type. In my opinion these proper scientific, cited and referenced terms should not be modified by Wikipedia editors to seem less confusing, but can be explained to the lay reader by a well-written introduction to the article. best wishes, Vincentsarego (talk) 12:11, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
