The Wikipedia article with the title "Bacteroides ruber" was marked as an orphan, with few or no links to it. In contrast, there were many links and references within Wikipedia to this recently-discovered notable bacterium with the name "Salinibacter ruber." Also, the references cited in the "Bacteroides ruber" article all referred to "Salinibacter ruber" as the name of the microbe, so I concluded that "Salinibacter ruber" is probably the proper name for the microbe and thus created this article under this name. I moved the content of the "Bacteroides ruber" article here and added a redirect. I also added introductory material that I copied and edited from the introduction of the "Salinibacter ruber" article at MicrobeWiki (https://microbewiki.kenyon.edu/index.php/Salinibacter_ruber).
